Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

As the Los Angeles Unified School District was the first District in the nation to adopt the refreshed 2016 ISTE Standards for Students, the Instructional Technology Initiative (ITI) continues to create systems and processes to implement the standards District-wide. For example, a critical effort involves assigning a one-year coach to select schools to build the capacity of school leaders around the implementation of the ISTE Standards.

As a result of attending this session, participants will:
Learn how to develop and structure a one-year coaching model to support the implementation of the ISTE Standards in elementary and secondary schools.
Engage in dialogue and discussion around evidence of ISTE Standards impact on instructional practices.
Explore new ways of monitoring growth and understanding of the ISTE Standards.
