Module 2: Unpacking an ISTE Standard Part 2: Determining Objectives
Introduction
Module 2 will take you through the second phase of the ISTE Student Standard Unpacking Process: Determination of Objectives. You will build on your analysis of standard language by crafting new learning objectives that combine learning goals from an ISTE standard and a required content-specific standard of your choice. After, you will answer the question, “What does mastery of the new objective look like?” by crafting observable and measurable criteria for students’ success. Completing part 2 of the unpacking process will prepare you for the final stage—implementation—covered in Module 3.
As a reminder, you will need your graphic organizer with steps 1 and 2 completed to continue in this module. To download that document as well as the completed sample from Ms. Franklin, see the links below.
