Effective teachers model and apply the ISTE Standards as they design, implement and assess learning experiences to engage students and improve learning, enrich professional practice and provide positive models for students, colleagues, and the community.

5. ISTE Standards for Students
Empowered Learner:
Students leverage technology to take an active role in choosing, achieving and demonstrating competency in their learning goals, informed by learning sciences.
Digital Citizen:
Students recognize the rights, responsibilities and opportunities of living, learning and working in an interconnected digital world, and they act and model in ways that are safe, legal and ethical
Knowledge Constructor:
Students critically curate a variety of resources using digital tools to construct knowledge, produce creative artifacts and make meaningful learning experiences for themselves and others.
Innovative Designer:
Students use a variety of technologies within a design process to identify and solve problems by creating new, useful or imaginative solutions.
Today’s students must be prepared to thrive in a constantly evolving technological landscape. Zip Codes and Borders no longer determine the learning opportunities, skills and careers that students can access.

6. ISTE Standards for Students (Continued)
Computational Thinker
Students develop and employ strategies for understanding and solving problems in ways that leveraged the power of technological methods to develop and test solutions.
Creative Communicator
Students communicate clearly and express themselves creatively for a variety of purposes using the platforms, tools, styles, formats and digital media appropriate to their goals.
Global Collaborator
Students use digital tools to broaden their perspectives and enrich their learning by collaborating with others and working effectively in teams locally and globally.
ISTE Standards for Students are designed to empower student voice and ensure that learning is a student driven process of exploration, creativity and discovery no matter where they are or their teachers are in the thoughtful integration of educational technology.

8. Data Collection Using Google Forms
How school teams gather data is critical when supporting students.
During this course, participants will:
Explore new ways to digitally collaborate while gathering documentation.
Explore the use of Google Forms to support this process.

9. It can start with meeting planning!
Have you used Google Forms or other websites to do a quick poll for availability when planning an IEP meeting?
With Google Forms, you can provide that poll right in the to help save time for your colleagues.
This means more team members participating in a more time appropriate manner. Meeting can be scheduled and parents can be notified.
Sample IEP Poll
Make sure that when you hit send, click the box on top that says to automatically collect addresses. This will help to better determine who is or is not able to meet.
Click the ‘Include form in ’ for easy access for collaborators right from their !

11. Customize to each student’s goal(s)
Have the form be specific to a student’s goals.
Share with the team and re-share once a week (or however appropriate) if you need that data on a regular basis.
Use the data from the responses to calculate if goals are being met.
The more you put into the Form, the more you will get out of it.
