“Educators need to have the knowledge and skills to take full advantage of technology- rich learning environments...” “In addition, the roles of PK-12 classroom teachers…and learners all will need to shift as technology enables new types of learning experiences.”

SLIDE 18

“Develop a common set of technology competency expectations for university professors and candidates exiting teacher preparation programs for teaching in technologically enabled schools and post-secondary education institutions” (U.S. DOE, 2016, 37).

4 Goals for Teacher Prep Programs

Focusing on the active use of technology to enable learning and

teaching through creation, production, and problem solving.

Building sustainable, program-wide systems of professional learning

for higher education instructors to strengthen and continually refresh their capacity to use technological tools to enable transformative learning and teaching.

Ensuring pre-service teachers’ experiences with educational

technology are program-deep and program-wide rather than one-off courses separate from their methods courses.

Aligning the above efforts with research-based standards, frameworks,

and credentials recognized across the field.

Micro Badges for Teacher Education

SLIDE 28

Consisting of:

Leading Educational Technology-related Professional Associations
Leading Teacher Preparation Institutions, and
Leading School Districts

To:

Develop the Teacher Educator Competencies into Micro-credentials
For Teacher Educators AND K-12 Teachers
Endorsed by professional organizations

Adding criteria and defining the evidence required
Developing rubrics with which to assess the evidence
Sharing the Micro-credentials across universities
Encouraging Districts to get serious about technology-related preparation

Should we host a working group?

SLIDE 31

Districts Rely More on Peer Recommendations and Pilots than Rigorous Evidence

SLIDE 32

Take Too Long + Too Expensive

SLIDE 33

Not Iterative

SLIDE 34

Serve Different Purposes

traditional research = high confidence

f certainty of

causal connections

SLIDE 35

Rapid Cycle Evaluations for Ed Tech

Project will provide a platform and resources

for districts to evaluate ed tech products

Platform will be free, publicly available, and

under an open license

Designed for ed tech, but easily adapted to
ther research questions
