Educator+Proficiencies

**Pewaukee Educator Technology Proficiencies**

**May 23, 2012** ISTE NETS-T Rubrics.pdf **Draft of Proficiency Checklist/Menu**

**Discussion:**

How many items do teachers choose to show proficiency? Frequency of tasks? Is the portfolio developed over one school year? longer? Who evaluates the portfolio? Add items to number 4 for those teachers that don't deliver the DC & L curriculum Careful communication to teachers; connect to student proficiency Part of the evaluation - big picture; Where does this fit in with over-all evaluation process? How we score the portfolio - descriptors for Advance, Proficient, etc. Do we roll this out for all staff? or pilot with core teachers, smaller group?

1. **LoTi** After taking the LoTi Digital Age Survey participants are presented with a detailed profile of suggested professional development priorities aligned to the NETS for Teachers (NETS-T). In addition, this profile offers recommendations aligned to five popular instructional initiatives including (1) Level of Teaching Innovation (LoTi), (2) Partnership for 21st Century Skills, (3) Marzano’s Research-based Instructional Practices, (4) Daggett’s Rigor & Relevance, and (5) Webb’s Depth of Knowledge. (Compatible with the H.E.A.T. classroom walk-through tool in use in PSD.)
 * How do we assess? **

2. **Next Generations Assessment** NGA provides summative assessments from which personalized technology development plans are generated. Each teacher’s plan identifies strengths and potential improvement areas. Improvement areas linked to corresponding professional development courses may be taken to improve the teacher’s technology literacy. NGA’s Teacher assessments are aligned to TPAK Model and ISTE NETS Standards for Teachers and measure the following skills:

Technical Knowledge Pedagogical Knowledge Content Knowledge Digital Citizenship Teacher Leadership
