Although I am employed to teach, I consider it something of a disappointment if I don't learn something myself during my teaching sessions.

One of the most radical shifts of pedagogy in recent years has been where learners take control of their own learning leading them to create their own content. The old aphorism ''we learn by teaching'' (or in Latin, docendo discimus ) holds true when we consider that to teach something, you first need to learn it.

Assessment drives pedagogy, so if assessment doesn't change, it's difficult to teach in new ways. The way teachers teach is defined by the way they assess learning. If the end result of assessment is a grade, and teachers are judged by the average grade of their classes, then it's no surprise that they will teach to the test.
