Educational Technology Standards for Teachers
1) Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity
Self-rating=5: I rate myself a 5because I would use technology for students to research real life situations and experiences that corresponds with daily lessons and activities. I would also integrate technology with collaborative learning in the classroom to expand students’ creativity and projects. Expanding students’ creative skills is crucial.
2) Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments
Self-rating=2: I rate myself a 2 because I would develop the digital tools for learning strategies and assessments, however, I would need to improve and practice on complex technological skills to properly adapt the tools necessary for student activities, learning styles, and digital assessment processes. The more I learn how to operate new complex educational advances, the more affective my lessons would be.
3) Model Digital-Age Work and Learning
Self-rating=3: I rate myself a 3 because I would model the digital tools as best as I can to support research and student learning. Similar to standard number 2, I would need to practice and engage myself in more technology before teaching.
4) Promote and Model Digital Citizenship and Responsibility
Self-rating=3: I rate myself a 4 because I would utilize digital tools for teaching diverse learners as well as incorporating global and ethical issues into the lessons. I will promote students to use the computers for resources and other information.
5) Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership
Self-rating=5: I rate myself a 5 because I strongly believe in advancing knowledge, improving weaknesses and installing dedication and motivation for my future students. I would promote leadership skills and expand their knowledge and creative skills.

EDUC 203- Teaching with Technology Philosophy
I want to be a teacher for several reasons. Due to my strong passion for cosmetology, I wish to help others with similar interests in the field. I personally enjoy showing students how to perform cosmetic procedures and advancing their understanding of this subject. I also want to be a cosmetology teacher because I would feel a sense of gratification when providing the students with knowledge about this creative field.
In today's society, it's important to integrate technology in the classroom. It gives teachers more methods to teach lessons for wide ranges of students. Technology in the classroom is also important for the students because it updates and enhances learning styles.
I would integrate technology with teaching in the classroom. I will teach lessons using instructional DVDs and the projector for power point presentations; displaying demonstrations on haircuts, hair color applications, and other services and procedures. Another way of using technology to teach is assigning projects to do on the computer. I will have all students access a computer lab as well as having computers in the classroom to access information. Students will be able to gather ideas, see the latest hairstyles, and research other topics relating to lessons, collaborative projects, and assignments.
Using technology in the classroom will enhance teaching strategies and assist students' understanding of the material. My goal, as a cosmetology teacher, is to integrate technology in my future classroom to teach lessons more affectively, to enhance my students understand of subject matter, and to keep the classroom's learning atmosphere up to date with technological advances.
