“The NETS help educators build a firm foundation for teaching with technology and further the development of many of the same 21st century skills set forth by the Common Core State Standards, such as problem solving, critical thinking, creativity and collaboration skills" -ISTE Position statement on Common Core State standards
The NETS and CCSS are not a separate set of standards which teachers must pull from in designing their lessons, but rather a set of standards that will work in tandem with one another to ensure that we are adequately preparing students for the 21st century workforce.
Take a look at the video I created with Animoto to illustrate this point.
Nice presentation. Great visuals, I especially like the flow chart associated with problem solving. The song you used reminds me of a song I know and I CAN'T THINK OF THE TITLE. Grrr.
ReplyDeleteHa! Coldplay! I finally asked my daughter.
ReplyDeleteI really like the visuals you used for this project. It makes it come to life and I think you are spot on with the direct connections of NETS to Common Core.
