What is the ISTE Institute?
The ISTE Institute: Leading with NETS is a program designed for teams of educators who are focused on increasing their effectiveness on student learning through the integration of technology. Based on the National Educational Technology Standards and on the current research on effective practice, the program takes a project-based approach, customizing the materials and focus to each team’s context.
Sebastian Elementary uses the ISTE Institute: Leading with NETS to aid in developing an onsite learning community for their staff, parents, and students. The LURE (Learn it. Use it. Run with it. Explain it.) program offers students and parents access to important classroom information 24/7. Read more.
