Evolution of My Practice Favorite Experience: Administrative consulting + ESL
teaching + Exchange Students from Lima, Peru
Before beginning this program, I used the ISTE
Standards for Educators to guide my instructional
practices and professional development initiatives.
However, my understanding and application of the
standards have deepened significantly as a result
of this learning experience. One instructional
practice that has changed is my approach to
designing and delivering professional development
sessions. I now prioritize incorporating elements of
the ISTE Standards into my training sessions,
ensuring that educators are equipped with the
knowledge and skills necessary to integrate
technology effectively into their teaching practices.
Additionally, I have started using the standards as
a framework for conducting technology needs
assessments and developing personalized learning
plans for teachers.

Use of ISTE Standards


The ISTE Standards serve as a framework for guiding technology
integration and professional development initiatives at our
school, which helped support my role in education. Educators
and leadership regularly reference the ISTE Standards to inform
their instructional practices, curriculum development, and
technology integration efforts. In addition to the ISTE
Certification program, I have participated in various professional
learning experiences focused on the ISTE Standards, such as
workshops, webinars, and conferences. These experiences have
provided valuable insights into how to effectively leverage
technology to enhance student learning and engagement. The
standards have certainly influenced my lesson development and
strengthened digital citizenship in the courses I teach.

Next Steps

Goals Moving Forward


One area of the ISTE Standards that I want to explore more
and integrate deeper into my practice is Digital Citizenship.
While I have addressed this standard in my work, I believe
there is room for further exploration and integration of
digital citizenship principles across all grade levels and
subject areas. I plan to collaborate with educators to develop
comprehensive digital citizenship curriculum and resources Artifact 6
that empower students to navigate the digital world
responsibly and ethically. Additionally, I aim to incorporate
digital citizenship principles into my professional
development offerings to ensure that educators are equipped
to teach these essential skills to their students.

Artifact 4
This project proposal for equitable access demonstrates
my ability to design meaningful learning experiences
that align with the ISTE Standards and leverage
technology to enhance student learning outcomes. More
importantly, it helped me address a common theme in
my career, which is expanding our support for
underdeveloped communities by connecting students
with resources we have more readily available, such as
my learners’ mastery of the English language. I am
proud of the creative and realistic ideas I set forth in
the grant proposal that I crafted for this artifact.

Artifact 12
The reflection component of this assessment received
positive feedback from learners and showcased my
expertise in integrating technology into instruction to
promote creativity and student engagement. One of my
challenges in my Introduction to Digital Technology
class was the level of consistency the school required
between all teachers on assignments, so this data
analysis allowed me to dig deeper into a rubric and Graphs an
assignment that had some components I would have d Analysis
changed and provide feedback based on data. This
artifact also shows how I applied my data background
to utilize graphs in the classroom space, extending to
the conversations that I opened with students about
their work. I am proud of how I used my strengths to
provide opportunities to my learners.
