21 Things Every Educator Should Know

This project is designed to offer teachers three ways to learn about technology tools that every teacher should know about. All elements (things) of the project are aligned to both the National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers (NETS) and the Michigan Educational Technology Standards (METS). The main goal of the project is to get as many teachers as possible “on the same page” when it comes to technology tools that enhance teacher and student productivity.

There are three ways for teachers to participate in the project.

·       One is to complete and participate in each element online on your own time.

·         The second is to participate in live scheduled online virtual trainings.

·         Third option is to participate in both online and in-person trainings.

Each thing will demonstrate a tool (many of which are web based) followed by the option for participants to complete a task and add it to their online web portal.

Note: At this time Warren Woods is NOT counting participation in the 21 things every educator should know project as professional development until a determination can be made about it meeting district PD goals and contract requirements. We are however, encouraging teachers to participate and learn about technology integration.
