NETSare the guiding standards of technology integration • NETS have been developed for: • Students • Teachers • Administrators
The NETS Project can help educators know: • WHAT technology skills should be woven into the curricular fabric of our schools . . . • WHEN such skills should be taught . . . • HOW technology can support these new learning environments . . .
The Profiles define broad indicators of performance at the following grade ranges: • Grades PreK–1 • Grades 2–4 • Grades 5–8 • Grades 9–12 Check online Standards under Student Technology Goals on Technology Professional Development page
National Ed Tech Standards • Basic Operations & Concepts • Social, Ethical, & Human Issues • Tech as a Productivity Tool • Tech as a Communication Tool • Tech as a Research Tool • Tech as a Problem-Solving & Decision Making Tool
We want to find “Appropriate” Lesson Plans. What does that mean? • The use of technology makes sense • Effectiveness and/or Efficiency of instruction is increased
Other Items to Look For • Objectives • Activities prior to the computer • Activities while at the computer • Activities after the computer • Supporting activities • Assessment
Where are the lessons? • Many times the best lessons are not in the first place you look. • Here are two sites to get you started: • TechTrekers • 4teachers • You can also use search engines to find lessons.
How can I use the lessons? • Philharmonic Kids • Virtual Washington Tour
Find An Online Lesson Of Your Own • What age group would the lesson be appropriate for? • What subject would it be used for? • What technology goal(s) does it represent? • How did you find it?
Time to Share • Share one lesson you found and explain what you like about it • Which standards does it address?
What Have We Learned • Where to find online lessons and resources. • How to incorporate the lessons. • How to use the Student Technology Goals to appraise the lessons.
