ISTE+Standards+Reflections

Williamson, J., & Redish, T. (2009). //ISTE's technology facilitation and leadership standards: What every k-12 leader should know and be able to do.// Washington, D.C.: International Society for Technology in Education.

Jo Williamson and Traci Redish have written what is considered by many to be the seminal work on technology leadership in K-12 schools. This framework of knowledge is divided into ‘standards’, the overarching category of mastery, then further into ‘indicators’, specific tasks that a true technology facilitator/leader should be able to do. The following pages offer my own insights into the importance of these standards, the level of mastery to which I have achieved and how I have done so, and my predictions about the future of this standard in schools and in my own career.

Standard I - Technology Operations and Concepts

Standard II - Planning and Designing Learning Environments and Experiences

Standard III - Teaching, Learning, and the Curriculum

Standard IV - Assessment and Evaluation

Standard V - Productivity and Professional Practice

Standard VI - Social, Ethical, Legal, and Human Issues

Standard VII - Procedures, Policies, Planning, and Budgeting for Technology Environments

Standard VIII - Leadership and Vision
