First published in 2000, the National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers (NETS•T) introduced ISTE’s technology standards for teachers and included profiles for each stage of teacher education from general preparation through first-year teaching.

ISTE is proud to announce this new edition of the NETS•T, which includes the new standards for students with its emphasis on skills and expertise supported by technology. Profiles are now included for all teachers in addition to the four previous stages of teacher preparation. Examples and scenarios demonstrate ways in which the standards facilitate effective teaching and learning strategies for prospective and beginning teachers, teacher candidates, current teachers, and teacher educators.
