We must all use whatever opportunities to keep abreast in our field.
Earlier this year, when the grade 10s were doing an activity on interviews, I was asked how I keep up to date. I had a number of answers but I have started doing something else which helps me keep up to date.
I review journal articles for publication in an academic peer reviewed journal. As I have a PhD I was approached to be a reviewer. In most academic institutions lecturers have to publish to keep their job. Well, I check if the articles they want to publish are satisfactory. I am sent the articles the editors deem are in my field - to date I have worked in the field of K-12 and university ICT integration. It is nice to be recognised in the international academic field. And this keeps me up to date.
