  2. What are NETS exactly? • NETS refers to the National Educational Technology Standards developed by the International Society for Technology in Education. • They have been adopted by our state and our district as the core of our technology instruction.

  3. NETS-National Educational Technology Standards • 1. Creativity and Innovation • Students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and processes using technology. • Apply existing knowledge to generate new ideas, products, or processes. • Create original works as a means of personal or group expression. • Use models and simulations to explore complex systems and issues. • Identify trends and forecast possibilities.

  4. NETS-National Educational Technology Standards • 2. Communication and Collaboration • Students use digital media and environments to communicate and work collaboratively, including at a distance, to support individual learning and contribute to the learning of others. • Interact, collaborate, and publish with peers, experts, or others employing a variety of digital environments and media. • Communicate information and ideas effectively to multiple audiences using a variety of media and formats. • Develop cultural understanding and global awareness by engaging with learners of other cultures. • Contribute to project teams to produce original works or solve problems.

  5. NETS-National Educational Technology Standards • 3. Research and Information Fluency • Students apply digital tools to gather, evaluate, and use information. • Plan strategies to guide inquiry. • Locate, organize, analyze, evaluate, synthesize, and ethically use information from a variety of sources and media. • Evaluate and select information sources and digital tools based on the appropriateness to specific tasks. • Process data and report results.

  6. NETS-National Educational Technology Standards • 4. Critical Thinking, Problem Solving, and Decision Making • Students use critical thinking skills to plan and conduct research, manage projects, solve problems, and make informed decisions using appropriate digital tools and resources. • Identify and define authentic problems and significant questions for investigation. • Plan and manage activities to develop a solution or complete a project. • Collect and analyze data to identify solutions and/or make informed decisions. • Use multiple processes and diverse perspectives to explore alternative solutions.

  7. NETS-National Educational Technology Standards • 5. Digital Citizenship • Students understand human, cultural, and societal issues related to technology and practice legal and ethical behavior. • Advocate and practice safe, legal, and responsible use of information and technology. • Exhibit a positive attitude toward using technology that supports collaboration, learning, and productivity. • Demonstrate personal responsibility for lifelong learning. • Exhibit leadership for digital citizenship.

  8. NETS-National Educational Technology Standards • 6. Technology Operations and Concepts • Students demonstrate a sound understanding of technology concepts, systems, and operations. • Understand and use technology systems. • Select and use applications effectively and productively. • Troubleshoot systems and applications. • Transfer current knowledge to learning of new technologies.

  9. And Common Core? • Common Core Standards are designed to prepare our students for real-life application of skills-in college or in the workplace. • Common Core Movie • Common Core encourages collaboration among colleagues in 44 states.

  10. Let’s Take a Look at Common Core Standards • Common Core Math • Common Core English Language Arts

  11. NETS Meets Common Core • NETS: • Students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and processes using technology. • Common Core • W.11-12: Conduct short as well as more sustained research projects to answer a question or solve a problem; narrow or broaden the inquiry when appropriate; synthesize multiple sources on the subject, demonstrating understanding of the subject under investigation.

  12. All Together Now • Utilizing Project Based Learning methods to meet the NETS will also include research and synthesizing multiple sources to construct knowledge.

  13. NETS Meets Common Core • NETS • Students use digital media and environments to communicate and work collaboratively, including at a distance, to support individual learning and contribute to the learning of others. • Common Core • W.5.6: With some guidance and support from adults, use technology, including the Internet, to produce and publish writing as well as to interact and collaborate with others.

  14. All Together Now • Numerous examples exist in the Common Core to encourage collaboration and many are easily facilitated through blogs and social media.

  15. NETS Meets Common Core • NETS • Students apply digital tools to gather, evaluate, and use information. • Common Core • W.8.8: Gather relevant information from multiple print and digital resources, using search terms effectively; assess the credibility and accuracy of each source; and quote or paraphrase the data and conclusions of others while avoiding plagiarism and following a standard format for citation.

  16. All Together Now • These standards are aligned almost perfectly. Collecting and evaluating information from digital sources is very prevalent in Common Core.

  17. Let’s Talk About It • Ideas • Feedback • Examples • Implication for the classroom
