As part of my job as a "Technology Integration Teacher," I need to be able to share with teachers some lesson ideas which address two issues: The lessons must incorporate the use of technology The lessons must address specific New York State Learning Standards This web site is an attempt to create an "archive" of lesson plans, ideas, suggestions, etc. which meet both of the above criteria. (Note: Even though this web site addresses New York's standards, I'm sure they closely resemble other states' standards, too.) Listed below, you will find a listing of each of the New York State Learning Standards. Each standard is linked to a web page where you will find one or more lesson plans, ideas, etc. which address that specific standard. If there is no link available, it simply means that I have not yet found a lesson plan which addresses that standard. That's where YOU come in. I need your help. If YOU have created (or know where to find) a lesson which addresses that standard, please consider contributing it by clicking here: If we all "pitch in" and share a good lesson plan or idea, we'll end up with a complete list which will prove useful to everyone. Thank you. I hope you find this page useful.

Geography Unit: Curriculum Framework This curriculum unit is standards-based and organized around "big ideas" (concepts, principles, and enduring understandings) that cut across and transfer to other subject areas. Enduring understandings, as defined by Wiggins and McTighe, refer to important ideas or core processes that have lasting value beyond the classroom. To determine enduring understandings, teachers are encouraged to ask: What do we want students to understand and be able to use several years from now, after they have forgotten the details. Enduring Understandings Essential Questions Topical Questions Knowledge and Skills ... Printable Chart Enduring Understandings: Where we live influences how we live; yet all of us are connected and interconnected with each other and the world. To gain a complete and accurate picture of a country, you need to draw on multiple sources of information and evaluate their quality and their perspective. Natural disasters are great tragedies. However, they can bring people together, reinforce interconnections, and reveal surprising traits of heroism. Working together to respond to a natural disaster can unite us with others in a common bond of humanity.

Technology Application TEKS for Pre Kindergarten to High School: Overview and Website Resources Traci Evans Angelo State University Technology Applications standards were developed and adopted in 1998 for Grades Kñ12. The TEKS in 19 TAC Chapter 126 describe what students should know and be able to do using technology. The Technology Applications TEKS are divided into four strands for all grade levels: foundations; information acquisition; work in solving problems; and communication. The goal of the Technology Applications TEKS is for students to gain technology-based knowledge and skills and to apply them to all curriculum areas at all grade levels. Technology Applications TEKS are divided into grade clusters for Grades Kñ2, 3ñ5, and 6ñ8, and courses for Grades 9ñ12. Students should demonstrate proficiency with the TEKS before they exit the benchmark Grades of 2, 5, and 8. In addition to the TEKS, Pre-kindergarten guidelines for Technology Applications were made available to schools in early 2000. They communicate what three and four-year-old students should know and be able to do using technology (1996-2010 Long-Range Plan, 2002). (1996-2010 Long-Range Plan, 2002).

East Carolina University Technology Competence Senior II Portfolio Requirements for All Teacher Education Majors Introduction: Effective April 1999, all beginning teachers who apply for an initial teaching license in North Carolina must demonstrate mastery of the North Carolina Technology Competencies for Educators . *The Technology Committee for the NC Department of Public Instruction is making the recommendation that North Carolina adopt the national standards as proposed by the International Society of Technology in Education (ISTE) . It is expected that the NC State Board of Education will approve this adoption beginning in fall 2001. Candidates for initial licensure will demonstrate mastery of the technology competencies by constructing a portfolio. Evidence in the portfolios will be assessed for adequacy by a team of teacher education faculty and public school teachers at the institution of higher education. Basic competencies (1.0 - 8.9) will be mastered in ASIP 2000 while advanced competencies will be addressed in EDTC 4001 . Evidence of mastery should appear throughout the candidate's senior I and senior II experience. "A number of competencies on the curriculum matrix can be evaluated only in actual classroom settings. These competencies are assigned to internship experiences in Senior I and Senior II. In addition students should be capable of developing a technology product of learning appropriate to their individual specialty areas. These products of learning should be included in student portfolios. " (SOE Technology Plan 1999-2001, p10)

The Chronicle Summer Issue 2000 The Chronicle Issues Archive Crafting a System to Ensure Idaho’s Driver Education Program Standards Meet the Demands of the Twenty-first Century Elizabeth A. Weaver, Idaho Department of Education With the passage of a graduated driver licensing law, Idaho’s driver education program will have increased opportunity to create a partnership with all teen drivers’ parents. The new law will require parents or guardians to sign the instruction permit with a statement that they agree to provide supervised practice for a period of not less than four months after their teen driver completes driver education. New car technology has changed the way we teach car control. Adjustable foot pedals, ABS, air bags, and even universal joints can affect car control. How we react to congested traffic, use higher speeds, drugs and alcohol, and our emotions can make the difference between arriving home safely or not at all. It is essential that Idaho’s driver education community be consistent in the information we use to teach young drivers good driving habits for risk-free driving. Idaho is undergoing substantial change to the way education is delivered. Existing standards for students is among the many challenges facing students, parents, teachers, and our communities. This year the State Board of Education will adopt standards for initial certification of new teachers, to include driver education teachers.

Set my homepage News 2/22 Teacher sees hours spent on lesson plans as an investment in the future By JOHNNY JOHNSON, Sentinel Staff Nettie Marshall teacher B.J. Bates knows that every student has the potential to get excited about learning, but sometimes it takes a little extra planning. Bates teaches fourth-grade liberal arts, including, reading, writing and social studies. From the time she was 10 years old, she knew that she wanted to teach. But what her fifth-grade teacher and career inspiration did not tell her was that it was a job that does not start at 8 a.m. and end at 3:30 p.m. But Bates does not look at those hours as time lost, or overtime for which she will not be paid. She sees it as an investment in the future. One of the hardest parts about lesson planning, at least for Bates, is figuring out how to make a lesson plan that will actually be useful to her students.

Curriculum see TEKStar Curriculum Development Model Curriculum exists to make teaching more precise and to maximize student learning. Learning is a cumulative process; therefore, districts cannot risk disjointed or haphazard learning experiences. Curriculum establishes content, sequence and timing. The two primary objectives are: to help teachers plan and deliver instruction so that students receive instruction on the skills and concepts necessary for success at each grade level, and to bring congruence between the written, taught, and tested curriculum. Region 18 ESC will assist districts interested in writing curriculum. The curriculum will be aligned to the TAAS specifications. There is a fee for this service. Curriculum Council The purpose of the Curriculum Council is to provide each district with timely information concerning the following areas: the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) the Texas Reading Initiative Region 18 ESC/state curriculum initiatives innovative practices in education options for delivery of staff development Other areas for discussion will be determined by the Curriculum Council. Input from the Curriculum Council will determine ESC services in the areas of curriculum, instruction, and staff development.

Math Science Home Northwest Teacher > Spring 2003 Volume 4 Number 3 Lesson Study: Crafting Learning Together CONTENTS Editors' Note SCOPE Researchers in Every Classroom FEATURES The Essential Elements of Lesson Study A Lesson Study Team Steps into the Spotlight Lesson Study Advisers Lesson Study in the Northwest DEPARTMENTS Classroom Resources Reflections A Word from the Director Masthead The Essential Elements of Lesson Study Story by Catherine Lewis, Ph.D. Cultivating lesson study in U.S. schools is not a matter of holding fast to the Japanese model. The power of the process resides in the key pathways through which teachers learn, grow, and improve their practice. I recently asked a large group of California teachers how many of them had seen a promising innovation discarded before it had been given a reasonable try. Every hand went up. Teachers volunteered several reasons that innovations fail so regularly. Innovations may be "watered down" or reduced to a few ritualistic activities by the time they reach local school sites. Trainers may be several generations removed from the innovation's originators. Local educators may be pressured to implement the surface features of an innovation quickly without understanding their underlying purposes. For the last 10 years, I have conducted research in Japan on lesson study, the core of professional development for Japanese teachers. Lesson study is credited for the shift from "teaching as telling" to "teaching for understanding" in Japanese mathematics and science education and is highly valued by both teachers and administrators. Although lesson study is rapidly emerging in sites across the United States, the history of other educational innovations should make us wary. Will lesson study be scantily implemented and quickly discarded like so many other once-promising educational innovations?
