The ISTE standards for teachers consist of 5 standards for teachers to meet. They basically say inspire
student learning and creativity, use digital tools to enhance the learning
experience, model digital work and learning, promote digital citizenship, and
professional growth As a teacher, my
strengths lie in my ability to use, adapt and teach others about technology. I have been the campus digital learning leader
for several years and am very comfortable with most things technology. I help
teachers with their technology issues. I have had some Google training on new
ways to use Google with my students and sharing information with parents.
My weakness is finding the time and
having the forethought to have lesson ready for students. I will think of a
great way to use technology in the middle of the lesson or after I have already
completed the lesson. My district is just getting on the Google fever. I use
the Google products they give us but only minimally. One of the standards that ISTE have is
“inspire student learning and creativity”. Although my students work with
technology everyday, I usually have a project for them to complete. I do not
have many options for creativity or collaborating on a project together.
My strengths of having a passion for
technology will come in handy as the learning curve for technology becomes
higher and teachers do not have the time and feel left behind. I like to help
teacher and students learn to use technology and enjoy it. As a teacher I am
impacting the students in my classroom but as an librarian I will be able to
help teachers more.
