Session description

During this panel session, we will highlight how our educator preparation programs have embraced and facilitated the five components of the Digital Equity and Transformation Pledge at our institutions. We will also share how we have explicitly embedded the ISTE Standards across the courses in our programs.

Purpose & objective

This panel presentation will introduce multiple comprehensive models for digital transformation and digital equity designed, developed, and implemented in teacher preparation programs that utilize the standards of the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE).
