THE BIG PICTURE ITEEA: AETL, 2003)
Program Everything that affects student learning, including content (from standards), professional development, curriculum, instruction, student assessment, and the learning environment, implemented across grade levels. (ITEEA: AETL, 2003)
Content Written statements about the knowledge and abilities students should possess in order to be technologically literate (Standards provide the content) (ITEEA: Planning Learning- Developing Technology Curricula, 2005)
Professional Development A continuous process of lifetime learning and growth that begins in early life, continues through primary and secondary school, on to the undergraduate pre-service experience, and extends through the in-service years. (ITEEA, AETL, 2003)
Curriculum Specification of the way content is delivered, including the structure, organization, balance, and presentation of the content in the classroom/laboratory. (ITEEA: AETL, 2003)
Standards-based vs. Standards-related Curriculum • Standards-based curriculum: Educational standards provide the content basis on which student learning is built • Standards-related curriculum: A connection is made to educational standards, but standards do not necessarily provide the basis for student learning
Student Assessment A systematic, multi-step process of collecting evidence on student learning, understanding, and abilities and then using that information to inform instruction and provide feedback to the learner, thereby enhancing student learning. (ITEEA: AETL, 2003)
Learning Environment Formal or informal location where learning takes place that consists of space, equipment, resources (including supplies and materials), and safety and health requirements. (ITEEA, AETL, 2003)
Instruction The actual teaching process that the teacher employs to deliver the content to all students. (ITEEA, AETL, 2003)

STL Medical Technology Standard (#14)Students will develop an understanding and be able to select and use medical technologies. • Grades K-2 & 3-5 (Ages 5-11): • Vaccinations • Medicine • Products that take care of people and their belongings • Development of devices to repair or replace certain parts of the body • Use of products and systems to inform
STL Medical Technology Standard (#14)Students will develop an understanding and be able to select and use medical technologies. • Grades 6-8 (Ages 12-14): • Advances and innovations in medical technologies • Sanitation processes • Immunology • Awareness of genetic engineering
STL Medical Technology Standard (#14)Students will develop an understanding and be able to select and use medical technologies. • Grades 9-12 (Ages 15-18): • Medical technologies for prevention and rehabilitation • Telemedicine • Genetic therapeutics • Biochemistry
Group Task • Problem: Develop a learning unit for a medical technology curriculum for a 10th grade class in Palestine. This unit of instruction could last a week or more and will be taught one hour each day during the week. Each group will be assigned a topic in one of the four Intended Learning Outcomes for Medical Technology. These are:
Palestine Intended Learning Outcomes in Medical Technology* • Pharmaceutical technology • Medical Devices • Microscopes; Imaging devices; C-T Scan and MRI; Laser medical applications • Prosthetics; Artery opening • Dialysis processes and genetics *From Palestine “Course Development and Upgrading in Technology Education Program”
Process for Groups • The workshop participants will be divided into smaller groups. • Once organized, each group will select a leader and someone to take notes for the group. • Group meeting time: 45 minutes • At the end of the meeting time, the leader of each group will give a brief oral report to the total workshop audience on what his group has developed.
Brainstorming techniques • Focus on quantity • Withhold criticism • Welcome unusual ideas • Combine and improve ideas
