Guide to Icons & Features

To ensure the titles you choose are right for you, we evaluate ISTE titles using a variety of factors:

Audience reflects who is most likely to find the material useful.

Features describe content or emphasize what is particularly relevant to ISTE members and customers.

Technology tells which tools the title addresses. When specific technology is not needed to use a title to its full potential, the technology factor is absent. Where doubt may arise, we have indicated that specific technology is not needed.

NETS icons indicate which National Educational Technology Standards (Students, Teachers, Administrators) are supported in whole or in part by the title.
