3 Boulder Valley School District Technology An Introduction to The Curriculum Essentials Document Background This BVSD Curriculum Essentials Document incorporates the International Society for Technology in Education s (ISTE) National Educational Technology Standards for Students (NETS). The NETS for Students from ISTE do not delineate how courses should be created or taught. Each teacher must determine appropriate lesson planning. As technology rapidly evolves with new dynamic tools, there is no set of prescribed software, tools, or technologies that students and teachers may adopt to achieve these rigorous and robust standards. It is with experience, trust, and teacher consensus in ISTE that the Technology Teachers and Educational Technology Department at BVSD adopted these same NETS for our Boulder Valley students. The writing teams took the ISTE NETS for Students and carefully and thoughtfully divided them into courses for the creation of the 2011 BVSD Educational Technology Curriculum Essentials Documents (CED). ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Students The expectations in these documents are based on mastery of the topics at specific grade levels with the understanding that the standards, themes and big ideas reoccur throughout PK-12 at varying degrees of difficulty, requiring different levels of mastery. 1. Creativity and Innovation Students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and processes using technology. a. Apply existing knowledge to generate new ideas, products, or processes b. Create original works as a means of personal or group expression c.

Communication and Collaboration Students use digital media and environments to communicate and work collaboratively, including at a distance, to support individual learning and contribute to the learning of others. a. Interact, collaborate, and publish with peers, experts, or others employing a variety of digital environments and media b. Communicate information and ideas effectively to multiple audiences using a variety of media and formats c.

Research and Information Fluency Students apply digital tools to gather, evaluate, and use information. a. Plan strategies to guide inquiry b. Locate, organize, analyze, evaluate, synthesize, and ethically use information from a variety of sources and media c. Evaluate and select information sources and digital tools based on the appropriateness to specific tasks d. Process data and report results 4. Critical Thinking, Problem Solving, and Decision Making Students use critical thinking skills to plan and conduct research, manage projects, solve problems, and make informed decisions using appropriate digital tools and resources. a. Identify and define authentic problems and significant questions for investigation b. Plan and manage activities to develop a solution or complete a project c. Collect and analyze data to identify solutions and/or make informed decisions d. Use multiple processes and diverse perspectives to explore alternative solutions 5.
