Write a short story (1+ pages) that somehow reflects the importance of the ISTE standards for students. Your story could be completely fictional or creative non-fiction, meaning a story that is somewhat based on real-life events

  When ISTE originally published student expectations in 1998, most schools only had a computer lab that students used once or twice a week. During classroom hours, kids learn how to utilize a word processor or manage spreadsheets. The initial version of the ISTE Standards for Students focused on teaching students how to utilize technology.  

It was not long until those first guidelines needed revisiting. When the ISTE Standards were amended in 2007, instructors had more access to mobile devices and the internet. The emphasis has switched from productivity to leveraging technology to educate critical thinking, creativity, and cooperation.  

By now, children were utilizing computers to collaborate with classmates from distant classes, states, and nations. The new standards prioritize technology-based learning. Technology in education evolves. In fact, the shifts from 2007 to 2020 are more profound than those from 1998 to 2007. That is why ISTE rewrote the ISTE Standards for Students.

Carolyn Sykora, senior director of ISTE Standards, believes the new standards change the way we learn and teach. It is less about what kids should know and be able to accomplish than it is about who we want our students to become in a society that rewards adaptation in a world of constant change. "They stress enabling the student to take responsibility and use the content at their fingertips." Learning is a discipline, a basis for lifelong learning, and a passion for learning. "

The ISTE Standards serve a higher purpose by altering learning and teaching. The standards underpin ISTE's cause-based purpose.
