Technology Standards Self-Assessment

For this discussion I was asked to evaluate my self against the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) Standards for teachers.

I have achieved the following NETS-T standards (list by number and letter = 1a, 3b, 5d, etc.):

1a,b,d; 2a,b,c,d ; 3c; 4a

I still need to achieve the following standards (list by number and letter = 1a, 3b, 5d, etc.):

1c; 3a,b,d; 4b,c,d; 5a,b,c,d

My long-term plan for achieving all of the standards:

        First and foremost my goal for achieving all of the ITSE NETS-T (Teachers) 2008 Standards is to successfully complete this course over the next four weeks. Successfully completing this course will allow me to learn the skills and acquire the resources I need to effectively implement the standards into my teaching philosophy and eventual classroom. Secondly, I hope to practice and hone the skills I learn in this class that pertain to the standards through practice in my current position as an instructional assistant. Because I am not yet a teacher with my own classroom to implement these standards into, I will look for opportunities in my current position as an Instructional assistant to implement and practice the ITSE NETS-T (Teachers) standards. In an attempt to successfully implement these standards in to my philosophy I can utilize the list of standards, as a checklist of areas that I can improve on. Using the standards in this way will allow me to increase my use of technology in the classroom, which will allow me to eventually meet each standard in preparation to having

my own classroom in which to fully incorporate and implement them.
