Introduction to the New NETS for Students
ISTE's new NETS for Students better reflect a 21st century learner, in a technology-driven world. This session will explore these new standards, with an eye on strategies for incorporating them into the classroom. We will spend time "unpacking" these standards, discussing their intentions, and brainstorming strategies for incorporating them across the content areas. We'll discuss the mindset of the MySpace generation, how these standards tap into a more technology-native brain, and what this all means to classroom teachers.
Cost: $49
