The competent teacher will use computer systems to run software; to access,
generate, and manipulate data; and to publish results. He or she will also evaluate
performance of hardware and software components of computer systems and apply basic
trouble-shooting strategies as needed.
1. Write a paragraph explaining your knowledge and understanding of the standard—put the
The standard wants me to understand that there are many uses and ways into which
technology can be supportive in the classroom. Technology can be used not only as an
instructional tool, but also as a device to help generate ideas, data, and information.
However, it is equally important to look at these systems critically, and also learn the
strategies necessary for trouble-shooting. There are many different types of programs out
there to make manipulating, generating, and accessing data possible quick and easy. It is
important to know how to use and construct the tools necessary to utilize these software
programs effectively.
2. Explain how the artifact you chose demonstrates your understanding and application of the
standard.
The artifact I chose, a lesson plan involving technology supports and assessment,
lesson and also SMART Response technology to assess student understanding. The data
gathered from the assessment helps me to evaluate student progress as well as how to
further instruction to increase reliability and validity of my assessments. The artifact also
demonstrates my knowledge of how to “operate a multi-media computer system with
related peripheral devices to successfully install and use a variety of software packages.”
3. A If the artifact has been used in your practice, reflect on how your teaching will change in
B. If the artifact has not been used in your practice, i.e., a class assignment, reflect upon how
This was a lesson plan I used for my supervisor’s observations. I wanted to demonstrate my
excelling use of technology during instruction and assessment. Throughout my time during
student teaching, having the SMARTBoard and supporting software, I have learned a lot about
its ability to enhance instruction to make it attainable for students. However, it has also caused
me to reflect on his predominance and how my teaching would need to be modified if I was
4. Conclude with a paragraph discussing how you are more prepared to Teach and Learn in a
Through the use of technology, I am able to differentiate and modify instruction to help
teach and learn in a diverse society. The use of assessment, and manipulating this data,
allows me to evaluate and reflect upon my own instruction as well as students’ needs and
groups and supports reflective of the RTI system. Overall, through fulfilling this standard, I
