ICT Standards and Frameworks for Teachers
One of the biggest challenges facing schools and teachers is to articulate the skills and competencies that teachers should develop to enable them to confidently and competently teach in '21st century schools'. There are a number of frameworks that describe these skills and competencies.
The following frameworks can help guide individual teachers, schools and educational institutions in ensuring teachers have the required skills.
The Australian Professional Standards for Teachers - ICT Elaborations
The Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership (AITSL) have developed ICT elaborations that support each of the National Professional Standards for Teachers. These elaborations suggest how teachers can use technologies within the context of each of the standards.
The National Educational Standards for Teachers
The International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) has also developed the National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers (NETS) as a road map for improved teaching and learning with technology.
