Purpose of the Standards  The purpose of the ITF and SLMC Professional Standards is to guide the curriculum development and instruction in North Carolina graduate programs in Information & Library Science and Instructional Technology.  The Standards set expectations by describing what new graduates should know and be able to do.  These Professional Standards provide a foundation for the development of a new Evaluation Instrument for library media and instructional technology educators.

Connections to Other Standards  The Standards correlate with other national and state standards and guidelines, including AASL, NCATE, ISTE, and the Partnership for 21st Century Skills framework. The StandardsAASLNCATEISTEPartnership for 21st Century Skills  The new Standards also align with the SBE goals and the newly adopted State School Technology Plan.SBE goals  The standards will guide the work of the IHE (Institutions of Higher Education) programs moving forward.  The format and elements align with all other new NC Standards.NC Standards

Standards vs. Evaluation  The revised Standards are not evaluation Standards. They are guidelines that guide the curriculum development and instruction for pre-service library programs at IHEs.  The Standards will be used in the development of a new Evaluation Instrument, that correlates closely to the new MCREL Teacher Evaluation Instrument.  After SBE adopts the new Standards, a new Evaluation Instrument for ITF/SLMC Professional Standards will be piloted Fall  The new Evaluation Instrument will correlate closely to the new instrument for Teachers.

Paradigm Shift  These Standards represent a shift in emphasis for the Media Coordinator position.  The new IT Essential Standards are now embedded in every subject to be taught by teachers.  Student achievement is now a shared responsibility.  The role of the Media Coordinator has shifted to facilitator.

Progression Timeline The table below shows the progression of the standards work including rubric development, evaluation, study, professional development and final release for use in January 2014.
