Abstract:

Teaching should be dynamic and growing. We should strive to instill in our students those qualities that will enable them to excel in all environments. This paper is a working example, complete with tested exercises to illustrate and assist in the growing challenge to arm our students with the tools necessary to be successful, not only in the classroom, but beyond. Flexibility and adaptability are important development strategies. Disruption need not be a precursor to paralysis, but instead may ignite creativity and invention. With the appropriate skill sets our students will be equipped to challenge traditional dogma and view issues from multiple perspectives and lenses. This may be accomplished by teaching new approaches and practicing them as well. One example would be to study trends, expanding our capacity to teach from multiple views, not fearing disruptions, but looking at them in a new light, thinking outside the box, going against the norm, coining them as nurturing brilliant ideas that are disrupting the rules of the game.
