To be a successful e-teacher for new generation learners, teachers must engage students through visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning activities. Traditional classroom methods often fail to engage learners, who are now motivated, self-directed, and access information instantly online. Evaluation should be ongoing and focus on concepts rather than just testing. Teachers must adopt technology like learning management systems and web meetings to engage learners outside the classroom and prepare them for the future.
