Standards Basic Review What are standards? Standards spell out what students are expected to learn in each grade and each subject. Why are standards important? When teachers and principals know what students are expected to know, they unleash the power of their own creativity and have the freedom to innovate. (ed.gov – Sect. Anne Duncan, 2010)

Standards and You Each state Department of Education creates standards for schools within the state. These standards become the basis for the way teachers are trained, what they teach and what is on state standardized tests that students take. How you are trained (Pre-Service and PD) What you teach…even how you teach Basis of your instruction Student Assessment Michigan Education Assessment Program (MEAP) Content Area - MGLECs

Pre-Service Teacher In relation to EDT 3470, everything you have covered this semester was based around “meeting or exceeding the 2008 ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers.” Your Charge – Team Web Site

Example Web Sites Welcome to the Fascinating World of Weather Website Classroom Dinner Exploring Weather

Team Web Site What you will NOT do… What you will DO… Link only your lesson plan standards What you will DO… Link all standards from MGLCE: Michigan Grade Level Content Expectations, and ISTE: National Educational Technology Standards for Students: The Next Generation that your web site meets

Linking Standards Why is this important? Again, everything has a base, even your book … Teachers using your web site need to know what standards you based all of your projects and lessons from. Assures that your instruction is based off of clear-cut goals and objectives that will aid in insuring your students learning process and success; and will provide the same for other teachers

How will I do this? You will need to go back with each one of your assignments and new ideas (which was introduced in lab). You need to find the standards that align with assignments and are the foundation of the new ideas to be implemented. Taskstream! Taskstream! Taskstream! Ex. MGLECs are categorized by Grade Level -> Subject Area -> Core Subject Areas -> Disciplines and Expectations
