EdTech Profile - NETS-T 2d

DESIGN AND DEVELOP DIGITAL-AGE LEARNING EXPERIENCES AND ASSESSMENTS
- provide students with multiple and varied formative and summative assessments aligned with content and technology standards and use resulting data to inform learning and teaching

For the EdTech profile I took a quiz on the EdTech website on my technological knowledge and abilities. The results of my technological prowess was converted into a graph. The graph is shown below. The resulting data expressed by the graph can be used to aid in teaching concepts that have not yet been mastered.

Inspiration KM - NETS-T 2a

DESIGN AND DEVELOP DIGITAL-AGE LEARNING EXPERIENCES AND ASSESSMENTS
- design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity

I used Inspiration as an technology tool to organize a main idea and subtopics related to that main idea. I organized the National Educational Technology Standards for teachers (NETS-T) and its five related standards. Then, I used this chart to write my Teacher Performance Expectations for Technology in Taskstream for my teacher credential program.


iMovie PSA - KM (CSUSM) - NETS-T 4b

PROMOTE AND MODEL DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP AND RESPONSIBILITY
- address the diverse needs of all learners by using learner-centered strategies providing equitable access to appropriate digital tools and resources

I created a public service announcement encouraging prospective students to choose CSUSM using the learner-centered technology tool iMovie and a video camera . All students had equitable access to this tool because it was available to all students via the classroom computers. I incorporated statistical information, audio, and text into the project. This movie project meets the diverse needs of all learners. It promotes student-centered learning, because each student is responsible for independently completing the project.
