Shelby ISTE Document


Shelby Fink

 

NETS-S
HOW I MET THIS STANDARD AS A STUDENT.
Think of at least one way you feel you have met this chosen standard as a student. You may include reasoning from as far back as Kindergarten (if you remember that far back) or as recently as a college level course. Write an explanation of this project or activity that you feel allowed you to master this standard.

Exhibit a positive attitude toward using technology that supports collaboration, learning, and productivity.

As I progressed further in my education I became more and more confident with using technology. In both my high school years and in my college classes today I use powerpoint for a lot of projects. I really like using powerpoints because I think it is a great way to incorporate information, pictures, sounds, and even videos to help with learning. I have also been able to work on smart boards a lot. They are another great way to collaborate many different learning styles.



NETS-T
HOW A TEACHER I HAVE HAD HAS MET THIS STANDARD.
Think of at least one way a teacher you have had throughout your educational career has shown evidence of meeting this standard. Write an explanation of what this teacher did or created that showed this evidence.



Customize and personalize learning activities to address students’ diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources

 

One of my favorite teachers used this standard extremely well. She understood that there are many different preferences in learning styles for children. She incorporated many different things that would help students of many different learning styles. She would use her smart board to show videos, allow us to draw pictures, and try problems hands on to cover every learning style.



HOW I PLAN ON MEETING THE NETS-T AND NETS-S STANDARDS IN MY OWN CLASSROOM.
Write a SHORT explanation of how you will prepare yourself to meet the standards set by ISTE.

 

I plan to continue to stay positive and also keep learning about new technology that I can bring to my classroom. I will use a smart board, overhead projection, and powerpoints to continue to reach students of all learning styles. I think it is very important to teach my students how to use different technology because technology is such a big part of everyday life.
