The 21st-century educational landscape is experiencing a paradigm shift driven by technological advancements. Pedagogical theories such as constructivism, connectivism, and blended learning have evolved to accommodate new forms of digital interaction, requiring a redefinition of the teacher’s role. This article explores the intersection of traditional educational theory and digital innovation, analyzing how educators transition from content deliverers to facilitators, designers, and co-learners in technology-mediated environments.
