ISTE STANDARDS FOR

TEACHERS.
Effective teachers apply ISTE
Standards into their teaching to
assure they are covering all
grounds. When creating a
lesson for students, all teachers
should meet the standards and
performance indicators. This
includes the five standards to
advance student learning.

Facilitate and Inspire Student

Learning and Creativity.
STANDARD #1:

Teachers used their knowledge of subject matter, teaching

and learning, and technology to facilitate experiences that
advance student learning, creativity, and innovation in both

c) Promote student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and
clarify students conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and
creative processes.
d) Model collaborative knowledge construction by engaging in learning
with students, collogues, and others face-to-face and virtual
environments.

The way I met the Standard..

In Unit 13, I created a comic strip which promotes a ton of creativity,
given that it has a great amount of options to choose from.
In Unit 12, I created a Audioboo and a Screencast which allowed me to
help my students learn in the virtual world.
Another great thing I learned about was Edmodo. I created Prezi which
introduced Edmodo and all of its features. This also promotes students
to step out into the virtual world.
The work in this course prepared me o Facilitate and Inspire Student
Learning in Creativity by giving me assignments that demonstrate
creativity such as the comic strip. As a future teacher the creativity
portion will take me far.
