ISTE Standards for Educators 2: LEADER

Educators seek out opportunities for leadership to support student empowerment and success and to improve teaching and learning.

2a. Shape, advance and accelerate a shared vision for empowered learning with technology by engaging with education stakeholders.

2b. Advocate for equitable access to educational technology, digital content and learning opportunities to meet the diverse needs of all students.
2c. Model for colleagues the identification, exploration, evaluation, curation and adoption of new digital resources and tools for learning.

My Plan

I do not have an artifact for this standard because it is an ongoing process that I must incorporate into my work wherever I begin teaching. Part of my professional development plan when I begin my position as a secondary ELA educator is to increase my proficiency in this ISTE standard. One thing I plan to do in a school- and community- wide approach is to make sure there is an established goal and vision for how we will use technology to involve families and students in effective ways. If there is a philosophy established, I want to collaborate with the school and administration to follow it. To reach toward performance indicator b, I plan to use differentiation and flipped classroom lesson plans in which my students will be able to learn content in different ways and create various assessments through digital technology. I want students to be creative and use multiple methods to show their learning. Finally, I also want to collaborate with other teachers at local and global levels where we can share methods and ideas for using digital technology in our classrooms. I want to share my ideas with other ELA teachers as well as cross-curricular programs. As I work with others, I will adopt their ideas and try them in my own classroom to find the best fits for my students and available materials.
