The purpose of our presentation/mini workshop is to empower individual educators to understand that the ISTE standards for Educators are not merely just another "set of guidelines", but authentic tools for the very sort of REFRAMING of one's professional practice that is so needed in the face of all the problems with teacher attrition caused by compassion fatigue, overwhelming stress, burnout (especially with our newer teachers and those coming in as interns because of the current shortage nationwide). Indeed, the work of reframing was originally proposed in a brainstorming session with multiple educational stakeholders who were brought together in the midst of the COVID 19 pandemic educational shutdown across the nation. The ensuing rash of retirements, early retirements, and lack of new entrants to the field were forseen and thus, an intentional focus on a means of empowerment for those who would remain was begun in late 2020 and culminated with a rebuilding of enstire Masters/Graduate Certificate program. Previously based upon the INACOL standards, the rebuilding of the curriculum and entire programmatic focus was discovered to be even more meaningful and empowering for the teacher candidates and students through the reframing process afforded with the ISTE standards. Our work is not about a singular technology, but upon how the ISTE Standards empowered a cultural shift in the very paradigm of how they envisioned and then went about putting their understandings into practice for our preservice and in the field teachers. We modeled, and will share through role modeling, narration, and explicit guiding, integrating the ISTE standards into one's philosophy of their rights, roles, and responsibilities as educational professionals through both a formal reframing process that we constructed and intentional critical inquiry techniques employed for individual reflection and active community building. The evidence of success we excitedly plan on sharing will be two-fold. Initially it will come from testimonials and direct examples of the differences in individual's practice. After that we will ask for volunteers from the attendees to share there ideas and thoughts from experiencing a mini-version of the intentional Reframing process. We will be showing examples of how integrating various technologies is supported an afforded through what we come to envision with Reframing, but the point is not specifically about technology in and of itself. Our focus is how understanding the intention is then brought into reality through technologies that support that which we seek to do, experience, and foster for our learners and our educational environment to ensure all are enabled to thrive in an empowering fashion that lasts beyond the moment.
1) We will be opening with an anonymous live survey for all present on how they are feeling as effective, engaged empowered 21st-century educators (Time 3 minutes)
2) We move onto research about the state of the mental health of our profession today along with rather of attrition and the state of our ranks. (5 - 7 minutes)
3) Additionally- we will be asking people to engage in immediate pair-share as to what they believe certain national responses were to certain questions about teacher longevity in their careers today versus other years and several specifics related to that topic. (6 - 8 minutes).
4) We will introduce the concept of REFRAMING and how ISTE Standards for Educators empowers the work in a powerful fashion (6 - 8 minutes).
5) We will have our pre-crafted templates and shared Google docs for people to engage in real time REFRAMING activities (a combo of reflection along with Affective and Cognitive mini quizzes) and also keep for themselves later via (the forced copy feature). We will demo the process. Do a sample of a single Reframe. Then walk the group through a mini process (10 - 12 minutes).
6) Toward the end we will ask for a couple of individuals to share any changes in their paradigms of their rights or roles or responsibilities as 21st Century Educators through the mini process of personally translating the 3 ISTE standards.
7) We will wrap up with another quiz and Q & A (5 - 8 minutes).
