The Recent technological advances have had important benefits in a positive way many areas of our lives for example, the way we communicate, collaborate, learn, and even teach.



While I was writing this post, I was trying to recall if when I was in elementary school I ever had heard phrases such as "20th-century teacher" or "19th-century teacher”.


Consequently the new era has been changing during the last years, the "20th" to "21st" brings different results: a 21st-century school, 21st-century education, 21st-century teacher, and 21st-century skills in which implicate both teachers and students teaching and learning strategies.

      All there!

Obviously, 21st century has been a revolutionary, technological, and modern century including the digital phenomenon and with it an endless resources sharing in which users share information through file access making life easier everywhere, all the time.

files, data, multimedia, hardware like printers, fax machine and scanners are the most frequently used shared objects.


Nowadays, not only people use resource sharing to facilitate work or activities, but also teachers at school even at university are using websites and platform which involve credibility, realistic, and factual with a relevant education to provide them an effective way to collect, organize, and share information with others.
