In this podcast, education specialist Josef Huber, Head of the ‘Pestalozzi Programme’ in the Training of Education Professionals Programme of the Council of Europe, discusses ideas for a new 21st century teaching and education manifesto.

The podcast gives information on the conference organised in Strasbourg entitled ‘Professional Image and Ethos of Teachers’, while touching upon issues related to what it means to be a teacher in the 21st century.

Demands placed on teachers, the areas that need to be developed in learners, a need for a new model of education,  as well as the new role and identity of teachers - are just some of the topics dealt with in this podcast.

It is a useful resource for practitioners looking to assess their views on 21st century teaching and learning - or for inspiration on how to enhance their practice.
