SD Educational Technology Standards Discussion Hill City Technology Conference Debbie O’Doan, ESA 7/TIE
Overview • Format of Standards • 5 Strands • Guiding Concepts • Examples • Examine standards by grade level
Format “A set of standards is simply a place to begin– it lays the foundation for measurable, consistent, high-level student learning… Adjustments will need to made for those who exceed the standards and for those who cannot easily meet them.” (p. 10) • SD DOE K-12 Educational Technology Standards
Format Please find pg. 16 in your folder
5 Strands • Nature & Concepts of Technology (NC) • Social Interactions (SI) • Information & Communication Tools (CT) • Information & Communication Processes (CT) • Information Literacy & Decision Making (IF)
What’s the Big Idea? • Guiding Concepts- EQ • Supports every subject area • Opportunities that should be available to EVERY SD Student • Human Process • About what people DO rather than what devices they use • How students learn to communicate to the world rather than the operations of computers and networks
Guiding Concepts cont. • Teachers should help students become technologically literate including: • Helping them use, manage, access, and understand technology • Especially for those who don’t have access at home (the 20% in SD) • Fits with New Blooms
Discuss this on the Blog • Does this mean you as a teacher need to be technologically literate? • What does it mean to be tech literate? • Do you have to know everything about technology in order to teach it? • http://technologytraining.21classes.com
Exercise • Stand up if you know a student who owns: • A home computer • A cell phone • An iPod • Did an adult teach them to use it?
Guiding Concepts cont. • Technologists are essentially problem solvers • As with all standards, we need to make the application of technology relevant to everyday life
Technology is: • An active process • Closely linked to creativity and innovation • Constantly changing and emerging
Discuss with a Partner • What does Effective Technology Integration look like?
Integration Ideas • TIE Tech Course Website • Powersources • Google Docs • Wikispaces • Blogs • Global Awareness- Connecting Classrooms • Edutopia
Why technology? • Technology Standards apply to everyone • 21st Century Skills • We are going to have to keep our “customers”
A Challenge for You • What does Effective Technology Integration look like? • How can you use these standards in the content you already teach?
