I am excited that the term "Change agent" has surfaced in the ranks of educators, whether adult or otherwise. I believe hold heartily in the use of the term. I first read about change agents in a book titled, "Change Agent" 1982 while studying at the University of North Dakota. The title is so descriptive of the teaching profession. I believe that if teachers begin to see themselves as "change agents" it would have a profound impact on how they are received by students. Sometimes teachers are perceived as information pusher rather than agents of life change. I hope the term catches fire among educators.
