First Year Teaching Preparation Performance Profile

One -- Technology Operations and Concepts

Assess the availability of technology resources at the school site, plan activities that integrate available resources, and develop a method for obtaining the additional necessary software and hardware to support the specific learning needs of students in the classroom.
Make appropriate choices about technology systems, resources, and services that are aligned with district and state standards.
Identify capabilities and limitations of current and emerging technology resources and assess the potential of these systems and services to address personal, lifelong learning, and workplace needs.

Two -- Planning and Designing Learning Environments and Experiences

Arrange equitable access to appropriate technology resources that enable students to engage successfully in learning activities across subject/content areas and grade levels.
Engage in ongoing planning of lesson sequences that effectively integrate technology resources and are consistent with current best practices for integrating the learning of subject matter and student technology standards (as defined in the ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Students).
Plan and implement technology-based learning activities that promote student engagement in analysis, synthesis, interpretation, and creation of original products.

Three -- Teaching, Learning, and the Curriculum

Plan for, implement, and evaluate the management of student use of technology resources as part of classroom operations and in specialized instructional situations.
Implement a variety of instructional technology strategies and grouping strategies (e.g., whole group, collaborative, individualized, and learner centered) that include appropriate embedded assessment for meeting the diverse needs of learners.
Facilitate student access to school and community resources that provide technological and discipline-specific expertise.

Four -- Assessment and Evaluation

Teach students methods and strategies to assess the validity and reliability of information gathered through technological means.
Guide students in applying self — and peer-assessment tools to critique student-created technology products and the process used to create those products.
Facilitate students' use of technology that addresses their social needs and cultural identity and promotes their interaction with the global community.
Use results from assessment measures (e.g., learner profiles, computer-based testing, electronic portfolios) to improve instructional planning, management, and implementation of learning strategies.
Use technology tools to collect, analyze, interpret, represent, and communicate data (student performance and other information) for the purposes of instructional planning and school improvement.

Five -- Productivity and Professional Practice

Recognize students' talents in the use of technology and provide them with opportunities to share their expertise with their teachers, peers, and others.
Use technology resources to facilitate communications with parents or guardians of students.
Participate in technology-based collaboration as part of continual and comprehensive professional growth to stay abreast of new and emerging technology resources that support enhanced learning for PK-12 students.

Six -- Social, Ethical, Legal, and Human Issues

Demonstrate and advocate for legal and ethical behaviors among students, colleagues, and community members regarding the use of technology and information.
Enforce classroom procedures that guide students' safe and healthy use of technology and that comply with legal and professional responsibilities for students needing assistive technologies.
Advocate for equal access to technology for all students in their schools, communities, and homes.
Implement procedures consistent with district and school policies that protect the privacy and security of student data and information.
