Reflective Statement
1. Fully state the standard in bold text. Then write a paragraph explaining your knowledge and
understanding of the standard—put the standard into your own words.
This standard states that I, as a teacher, will seek to understand the importance of using
computing and technology, and will understand the changes in technological development. As
understand the effects that it has on the workplace as well as society. I will understand that it has
the potential to address lifelong learning and workplace needs. While technology is a great asset
to our world as we know it, I will also have to understand the consequences of its misuse.
2. Explain how the artifact you chose demonstrates your understanding and application of the
standard.
The artifact that I chose is a research paper that I wrote about the consequences of the misuse of
technology. This paper is about cyberbullying which is a new form of bullying that is used over
the internet or cellular devices. After researching this topic, I was able to better understand how
technology can be manipulated from being a builder of knowledge to a destroyer of self esteem
standard, because it is an example of the ways that I searched to understand the downside of
using technology in the classroom and workplace. As a result of this research conducted and
compiled, I am now able to better understand the pros and cons of technology.

3. A If the artifact has been used in your practice, reflect on how your teaching will change in
the future to further meet the standard.
B If the artifact has not been used in your practice, i.e., a class assignment, reflect upon how
your teaching will be impacted by the assignment.
This artifact has not been used in my practice, however, as a result of completing this
assignment, my use of technology in my future classroom will be heavily monitored, and there
will be consistent communication with the students as well as their guardians about the
importance of internet safety. There will be a no tolerance policy about cyberbullying and
bullying of any kind. This artifact has opened my eyes to the many different avenues that using
technology can take—both positive and negative. This assignment has made me more aware and
better prepared to take advantage of the opportunities that technology can offer, but to also be
cautious about the ways it can be misused and taken advantage of.
4. Conclude with a paragraph discussing how you are more prepared to Teach and Learn in a
Diverse Society as a result of satisfactorily meeting the standard.
I feel more prepared to teach and learn in a diverse society as a result of meeting this standard
because I must learn the ways that my students function and the ways that they will both use and
abuse technology. This has made me a more aware teacher, and a teacher that is prepared to
invoke consequences that the students deserve as a result of using technology in an inappropriate
way. In order to use technology in the classroom effectively, I must know the ways that each of
my diverse students works, and I must be careful to keep a close eye on each of them
