Background

How did we get here?

7/1/05 -- ICT literacy standards became effective as part of the revision to all of the School Approval Standards

DOE has been issuing Technical Advisories since January 2006 to help districts better understand the new standards

ICT Info Sessions

January/February 2006 All six Educational Support Centers held ICT

literacy information sessions To provide further clarity about the

requirements within the standards and the great amount of latitude which districts have to implement them

ICT Assistance Sessions

May/June 2006 All Centers host assistance workshops 3 common objectives:

1. Inform district teams of pertinent materials 2. Assist districts to identify ICT within curricula3. Create common tools to help assess ICT

(“micro level” assessment rubrics used to assess individual classroom activities, not the whole portfolio)

Summer Institute 2006

Today’s work and the work of similar sessions at the other Centers will inform the ICT summer institute work of creating some common assessment rubrics for assessing student portfolios.
