"Florida's Professional Development System Evaluation Protocol provides the incorporated into each level: planning, learning, implementing and evaluating."

District professional development activities in Florida are guided by Florida's Professional Development System Evaluation Protocol. This evaluation model assesses the local planning, learning, implementation, and evaluation of professional development activities according to standards modeled after the Learning Forward (formerly National Staff Development Council) standards as well as Florida statutory requirements.

A new educational software program being implemented this year in our schools' extended day program is Kids College. This program is through a company named Learning Through Sports. LTD helps students with literacy, math and science. It is an adaptive program that works at each students level. Teachers do not always have the time to differentiate instruction. This program adapts to the students level and works on the gaps in their knowledge. The way the program works is that it motivates the students using their competitive nature. Student chose a team and the sport they want to play. The level they are working on is independent of their contribution to the success of the team. The team succeeds as long as the student succeeds. After answering questions they move through the levels by participating in the sport of their choice. The sports they students can play are: basketball, snowboard, golf, foosball, hockey, rugby or baseball. The video games have wonderful graphics which are attractive to the players. The program is aligned with the state standards and the common core standards. It provides reports of students success for teachers, students and parents.

ISTE-NETS-T Standards

What every teacher should know about the new ISTE standards.

Arizona has been wonderfully progressive in integrating technology into their curriculum. Here are their standards for edtech for the K-6 grade levels.

A very valuable resource! My favorite part of this site is that you may access not only all of the standards but also accompanying lessons ideas for those standards.

Florida website that is an amazing website that has lesson plans with tons of resources. Each one is also linked to standards.

ISTE formerly the NETS

excellent website for core standards for Mathematics.

If you're anything like me, you can't get enough information when it comes to state standards. Reading the state's detailed list of expectations for each standard helps me use student data strategically to plan my lessons.

This is an interesting look into the process our test-makers and standard-setters go through when evaluating content requirements of the FSA and determining what makes a "passing" score. I would give anything to have been able to participate in this panel! I can't imagine what kind of insight those attending back in 2015 received about the "mysterious" FSA test.
