Part I Technology Readiness and Targets for Improvement
Assess Yourself!
Review the Michigan K-12 Checklist, or an alternative more appropriate to your setting
Based on your review of the checklist(s), identify/describe in the chart below 5 skill areas
that you feel are most important to target for improvement for your students success
and your own. Identify the skills that you feel need your own personal improvement with
an X in the right-hand column.

3. Basic Shortcuts
My computer: I will be using a PC (ex: Mac, PC, Chromebook, Surface Pro, etc.) for the
majority of the work for this course.
Post a screenshot of your favorite keyboard shortcut, and briefly describe its use:
By pressing Control and F a navigation search bar will appear in the upper left of the screen.
This will allow you to easily find words in the document by highlighting them.
Part III: Implementation
1. ISTE Teacher Standards
A. As you review these ISTE-T standards provide an example of at least one thing you do in
your teaching. See the sample provided below and then share your own example:
Sample
Standard: 2. Design and develop digital age learning experiences and assessments
Performance indicator addressed: I selected a.
Standard 2.a. Design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and
resources to promote student learning and creativity.
My Lesson Example: I teach a math unit on geometric shapes. I have students use the digital
camera to take pictures of different features or items around our school. I recently started having
them edit the images to create a collage for different types of angles to post in the room.
Future Lesson:
Standard 2.c.: Customize and personalize the activity to meet diverse learning styles and working
Briefly describe an activity or lesson that meets one of the five ISTE-T standards you teach in
the table below:
ISTE Standard addressed by my activity or lesson
Standard 2.a. Design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools
and resources to promote student learning and creativity.
Future Lesson: (target and describe an additional performance indicator from that
standard for a future lesson)
Standard 2.c.: Customize and personalize learning activities to address students diverse
learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources.
Each group has the option to film and teach how they want. Options of videos such as
lecture or grouping students in class while watching the video to work on some problems
could be explored. This strategy works best for the most students who think similarly to
understand multiple formulas while learning how to explain one to others. Id like to
smooth this assignment out, since students who learn uniquely wont benefit from this as
much. Ive thought about having each group catering to two or three learning styles in
their video.
B. How I would rate myself based on the ISTE-Teacher Standards at this point using a 5-point

Your score/reflection: I believe I am proficient with active awareness. The skills shown to me so
far in the 21 Things for Teachers program feel easy to implement in my future classroom. I did
not give myself a rating of 5 since there is always room to improve with tools that I know nothing
about.

Final Reflection
Based on the resources in Basics, and your own experience, reflect on how thoughtful
integration of best practice and technology can improve your instructional practice. Give some
details.
I feel that video formatting, being able to tell if a website is bias at a glance, and creating
a variety of presentations are what I need to work on if I am going to be stressing these points to
my future students for their success. I knew a majority of the keyboard shortcuts but I never
knew how to take a screenshot. Now that I know I can utilize this feature I can post images of
instructions when giving an online assignment. I modeled future lessons for grades 7 through 12
in mind. The lessons are to focus on the benefits of technology as a learning tool. By using it to
study with other students, teach peers while learning technology skills, and as a more
productive record keeping tool. This can be achieved with programs like skype and video editing
software. Before I learned about the SAMR and TPACK knowledge levels. I never thought about
how assignments can fundamentally improve comprehension or self-accountability learning
skills in the online world. If I plan smart technology based assignments, I could be a benefit to a
wider range of students.
