Developing Targeted Technology Standards for Teachers: Report on a Project for the Canadian Settlement Language Sector

Abstract

We report on a project to develop technology standards specifically for English language teachers in the Canadian settlement language sector. We describe the background and the process of how the team collaborated over nine months to create and refine the standards. The seven standards each include four to eight performance indicators and are written in direct, teacher-friendly language. There are explanations and reflection questions for each performance indicator together with vignettes describing how the standards are realized in real teaching situations. We conclude by discussing progress on similar technology standards for programs and learners. The standards are being released with a CC-BY, non-commercial, share alike license so that others may use and modify them freely for their own contexts.
