Ready or Not . . .The World is Different
• Work is different ...
• Tools are different ...
• Communication is different ...
• Information is different ...
• Kids are different ...
And Learning Is Different!
Our Educational System Must Produce Technology-Capable KidsWithin a sound educational systems students can become:
• Capable information technology users
• Information seekers, analyzers, and evaluators
• Problem solvers and decision makers
• Creative and effective users of productivity tools
• Communicators, collaborators, publishers, and producers
• Informed, responsible, and contributing citizens
The Standards Movement Addresses What Students Should Know from Content Subjects
The use of technology as a tool for discovering and applying content knowledge in authentic contexts for:
• solving problems
• making decisions, • exchanging information and
• communicating has not been addressed in the content standards.
"Knowing content" is not sufficient in itself --
rather, students must apply
knowledge to:
• construct new understandings,
• solve problems
• make decisions
• develop products and
• communicate
Technology can facilitate this type of learning

Examples and Scenarios
Each set of performance indicators includes a related example or scenario describing how the performance indicators might be addressed in authentic classroom practice
Phase II. Connecting Curriculum and Technology
Available
Dec. 1999
from
ISTE
NETS Writing Team MeetingTeachers from all over the United States came to Tempe, Arizona, to develop learning activities and multidisciplinary units addressing both content and technology standards
NETS For Students: Connecting Curriculum & Technology
The resource includes:
1. Content-focused learning activities2. Multidisciplinary units3. Training Workshops4. All subject area standards5. Resources
Learning Activities
• Focused onContent Area
• Linked toNational ContentStandards
• Linked to NETSStandards
Multidisciplinary Units• Linked to two or
more sets ofcontent standards
• Organized byNETS
• Includesmultitude ofresources
Phase III. Support Standards
Describing those elements that support the effective use of technology in schools
Support Standards
• Technology foundations for all teachers
• Standards for leaders in technology and administration
• Infrastructure• Policy
Phase IV. Standards for Evaluation and Assessment
• performance assessments and the processes for applying them and
• evaluation systems for assessing the effectiveness of technology use in the classroom and schools will follow
As the standards and performance indicators are developed:
Student and Teacher AssessmentsAligned with Standards
• Performance-based assessments
• Rubrics for self-study
• Measures of learning
• Measures of facility with modern tools for learning and collaboration
• WHAT technology skills should be woven into the curricular fabric of our schools . . .
• WHEN such skills should be taught . . .
• HOW technology can support these new learning environments . . .
