ISTE Refresh of Administrator Standards is Under Way!

Leading the transformation of the educational landscape, ISTE has long since provided a roadmap and support for the purposeful integration of educational technology today. Included in these supports are the development of guides for educators, students, coaches, computer science educators and administrators no matter where they are at on their digital integration journey. The ISTE Standards provide a framework for educators in the sometimes overwhelming task of grounding the work in pedagogy, digital innovation and transforming learning.

Just like technology is ever-changing, ISTE has refreshed their ISTE Standards for Administrators through a rigorous process and inviting the educator community to help define what it means to be a visionary leader and change agent. Focusing on the skills, competencies, and mindset of the modern leader, ISTE has invited the community to provide feedback on the second draft. Take a look and provide feedback here. Feedback on this draft ends today!

Yesterday, EdTechTeam hosted an ISTE Standards for Administrators Virtual Feedback Forum with guest Sarah Stoeckl. Sarah is a senior project manager in the ISTE Standards department and supports K-12 implementation and understanding of the ISTE Standards. Sarah was joined by Jason Markey, a principal in the Leyden School District in Chicago and Gail Moore, an Instructional Technology Facilitator for Vancouver Public Schools. Check out the video and virtual chat below to hear the input of educators around the world. We invite you to add to the conversation by providing your input today!
