The ISTE Standards act as excellent guidelines for EdTech Coaches in schools. I use them regularly to envision, implement and reflect throughout my work. They summarize the important pillars for teaching and learning with and through technology.

The use of the ISTE Standards helps me keep organized, focused and creative while implementing my technology integration plan. The ISTE Standards also help me contextualize, find problems to solve and collect data to personalize PD and empower individuals to become the best version of themselves.
