ITEA News
Advancing Excellence in Technological Literacy: Student Assessment, Professional Development, and Program Standards (AETL) contains three separate but interelated sets of standards: student assessment, professional development, and program. Student assessment standards describe effective technological literacy assessment practices to be used by teachers. Professional development standards delineate criteria to be used by teacher educators, administrators, and supervisors in assuring effective and continuous in-service and pre-service education for teachers of technology. Program standards detail effective, comprehensive educational requirements to be used by teachers, administrators, and supervisors in promoting the development of technological literacy for all students.
AETL is a companion document to Standards for Technological Literacy: Content for the Student of Technology (STL) and was developed as a means for implementing STL in K–12 laboratory-classrooms. Together, AETL and STL identify a vision for developing a technologically literate citizenry.
