AASL: Standards for the 21st Century Learner

This was yet another useful and practical guide to show educators, parents, and even students the standards for computer and technology uses and resources. I liked how this artical included "common beliefs" regarding technology or other sources of information. This artical/guide really emphasized on specific skills, resources and tools geared towards learners of technology use. Included in this are:

"1. Inquire, think critically, and gain knowledge.

2. Draw conclusions, make informed decisions, apply knowledge to new situations, and create new knowledge.

3. Share knowledge and participate ethically and productively as members of our democratic society.

4. Pursue personal and aestheic growth."

Throughout this resource and abundance of information, these guiding principles are clearly spelled out and defined, which also include key questions towards the end to wrap it all up.

I could definitely see myself, as a teacher, using this.
