Technology Standards Infographic Assignment Instructions
Overview
Understanding the foundations of educational technology enables us to build an applicable curriculum for our students (ISTE, 2022). For those striving to incorporate technology into education, this means that we must understand three key publications: The ISTE Standards for Students and Educators (2021), TPACK (2021), and UDL Guidelines (2021). The purpose of this assignment is threefold: first, to encourage you to investigate educational technology’s current standards and guidelines. Second, we want to reflect on our readings regarding differentiation. Therefore, practice selecting a variety of lesson examples for your Infographic. Finally, we want to allow you to expand your own technology toolbelt by learning how to create an Infographic. These can be a fantastic tool for student assessments. Take time to learn how to create an Infographic.
Instructions
Become familiar with the standards, components, and guidelines that have been written to help shape the direction and use of educational technology. Using the links provided with this assignment, visit the ISTE Standards: Educators, What is TPACK?: The Seven Components of TPACK, and The UDL Guidelines websites and review the information in each resource. Additionally, find and review other sources that discuss TPACK in practice.
Create an Infographic which reviews each set of standards, components, and guidelines. Include the following for each:
A brief description and summary of the purpose of the set of standards/components/guidelines. What is its purpose?A discussion of its impact on classroom instruction. How does this set of standards/components/guidelines direct instruction?An example demonstrating how each might be observed in the classroom. Emphasize differentiation here. For example, suppose a teacher incorporates a WebQuest and VR trip into their students’ investigation of Egyptian tombs. This is an example of TPACK in the classroom because it combines the teacher’s content knowledge of Egyptian tombs demonstrated by selecting age-appropriate websites for students to explore with their pedagogical knowledge and use of technology.
Use a free Infographic generator site such as Canva, Piktochart, Venngage, or a different one of your choice. Do not submit a PowerPoint slide or SmartArt graphic from Word. If you have never made an Infographic, you are encouraged to use YouTube for tutorials.
Include references for any outside sources in current APA format.
