•   “I want my students to use more technology, but I don’t know where to start.”

•   “How does that App, website, etc. fit into my everyday instruction?”

•   “There is not enough planning time for me to reinvent my curriculum.”

•    “Thanks for the new computer/tablet/smartboard, but how do I use it?”

•    “How do I move forward with BYOD to class without it becoming a distraction?”

•    “What is digital citizenship, and how do I promote it?”

The benefits of using the National Educational Technology Standards include:

  • Improving higher-order thinking skills, such as problem solving, critical thinking, and creativity
  • Preparing students for their future in a competitive global job market
  • Designing student-centered, project-based, and online learning environments
  • Guiding systemic change in our schools to create digital places of learning
  • Inspiring digital age professional models for working, collaborating, and decision making
