At ISTE 2016, this week in Denver, we saw the official release of a refreshed and aspirational set of Standards for Students focused on empowering student voice.
We’ve come a long way from 1998 when our students exposure technology was largely limited to a weekly computer lab visit. ISTE describes the nearly twenty year progression of their standards as a journey from:
Supporting a learner-driven approach, the 2016 ISTE Standards for Students are a blueprint by and for innovative educators worldwide to guide education transformation and meaningful, future-ready learning. They are not about devices or using technology; they are about giving voice to learners the world over and ensuring that learning is a student-centered process of exploration and discovery.
Every one of these seven refreshed standards is in the wheelhouse of the teacher librarian. They resonate closely with our existing Standards for the 21st-Century Learner and I suspect they will nicely align with our own refresh, expected to be released at AASL National 2017. There are all about THINK, CREATE, SHARE, GROW. I know our classroom teacher partners will welcome our early work connecting these standards to content area standards and student inquiry projects.
