Standards for Administrators

Tip:
The International Society of Technology in Education (ISTE) has standards for administrators at http://cnets.iste.org/tssa/framework.html

Professional developers should be aware of what administrators know and be able to do for effective technology integration.

The five critical areas include:

  • Leadership and vision where leaders develop a shared vision for technology integration.
  • Leadership and teaching where all learning environments integrate appropriate technologies to maximize learning and teaching.
  • Productivity and professional practice where technology is applied to enhance their professional practice and increase their productivity.
  • Support, management, and operations where direction is provided to integrate technology into administrative systems.
  • Assessment and evaluation where technology is used to facilitate an effective assessment and evaluation system.
