Characteristics of Technology Best Practices

The following technology characteristics are designed to help campus leaders identify truly innovative and consistently high-level technology classroom practices:

  • The teacher uses technology in unique and creative ways, invents new ways to use existing technologies to meet classroom objectives, and actively seeks out technology solutions when evidence exists that specific technologies are likely to improve student learning.
  • The teacher is skilled in engaging students in technology-enriched learning activities that are authentic, multidisciplinary, and directly related to academic standards.
  • The teacher consistently weaves technology into many learning situations, and most learning activities are highly interactive and responsive to student needs.
  • The teacher acts as facilitator of learning, allowing students to construct their own meaning from the learning activities.
