2. Agenda for Session • Overview of updated State Educational Technology Standards • Connections to other content standards • Sample scope and sequence • Integration strategies: • Digital Citizenship/Media Literacy • Computational Thinking • Knowledge Constructor • Additional Resources to support EdTech Standards

3. Standards for Technology Literate & Fluent Students (Based upon 2016 ISTE Student Standards)

4. WA State Educational Technology Standards 1. Empowered Learner - Students leverage technology to take an active role in choosing, achieving and demonstrating competency in their learning goals, informed by the learning sciences. 2. Digital Citizen - Students recognize the rights, responsibilities and opportunities of living, learning and working in an interconnected digital world, and they act and model in ways that are safe, legal and ethical. 3. Knowledge Constructor - Students critically curate a variety of resources using digital tools to construct knowledge, produce creative artifacts and make meaningful learning experiences for themselves and others.

5. Educational Technology Standards (con’t) 4. Innovative Designer - Students use a variety of technologies within a design process to identify and solve problems by creating new, useful or imaginative solutions. 5. Computational Thinker - Students develop and employ strategies for understanding and solving problems in ways that leverage the power of technological methods to develop and test solutions. 6. Creative Communicator - Students communicate clearly and express themselves creatively for a variety of purposes using the platforms, tools, styles, formats and digital media appropriate to their goals. 7. Global Collaborator - Students use digital tools to broaden their perspectives and enrich their learning by collaborating with others and working effectively in teams locally and globally.

6. Designed to enhance and support other education standards and initiatives:

7. Connecting to Other Standards Connected standards are logical connections to other content areas at approximately the same grade that also have a match in cognitive demand. With this alignment, teachers can expect that when students can demonstrate mastery of one standard (educational technology or other content area), they can also meet the other.

8. Connecting to Other Standards (con’t) • Computer Science (http://www.k12.wa.us/ComputerScience/) • PE/Health Standards (http://www.k12.wa.us/HealthFitness/Standards.aspx) • English Language Arts (http://www.corestandards.org/ELA-Literacy/) • Mathematics (http://www.k12.wa.us/Mathematics/Standards.aspx) • Next-Generation Science (https://www.nextgenscience.org/get-to-know) • Social Studies (http://www.k12.wa.us/SocialStudies/EALRs-GLEs.aspx) • College, Career, and Civic Life (C3) Framework for Social Studies State Standards (https://www.socialstudies.org/c3)

19. Integrating Technology: Digital Citizenship & Media Literacy 1 Adapted from 2016 International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) Standards for Students 2 Definition from National Association for Media Literacy Education

20. Transforming Digital Citizenship Example Original Lesson: Video and discussion about cyberbullying Lesson Revision: Creating opportunities for positive online interaction • K-8: Positive post-its, SeeSaw discussions • 9-12: Using positive school hashtags, crafting digital resumes, opening avenues for collaboration beyond school community • What stays the same? • Focus on online behaviors • Focus on social media / online platforms • What has changed: • Students given leadership opportunity • Students as active participants in showcasing positive behaviors

21. Provides an ideal foundation for bolstering problem solving and logical skills, and digital competence. Computational Thinking as foundation

22. Computational Thinking in our Standards

23. Knowledge Constructor: Performance Indicator 3a Students plan and employ effective research strategies to locate information and other resources for their intellectual or creative pursuits.

24. Knowledge Constructor: Performance Indicator 3b Students evaluate the accuracy, perspective, credibility and relevance of information, media, data or other resources.

25. Knowledge Constructor: Performance Indicator 3c Students curate information from digital resources using a variety of tools and methods to create collections of artifacts that demonstrate meaningful connections or conclusions.

26. Knowledge Constructor: Performance Indicator 3d Students build knowledge by actively exploring real-world issues and problems, developing ideas and theories and pursuing answers and solutions.
