2a Shape, advance and accelerate a shared vision for empowered learning with technology by engaging with education stakeholders.

Shape, advance and accelerate a shared vision: How an individual is represented online in the public domain, based on activities, connections or tagging, for example, social media posts, photos, public online comments/reviews, awareness and monitoring of how others are depicting you online. Empowered learning with technology: Learning where students are self-aware about their own learning preferences and needs and have significant voice and choice in setting learning goals. Empowered students leverage technology to determine how they will learn, demonstrate competency in meeting their goals and reflect on their learning process and outcomes. Engaging with education stakeholders: Local stakeholders to engage in student learning success include district- and school-level administrators, educators, parents or guardians, community members, school board and state/government members, employers, higher education faculty and staff and, of course, students themselves. Connect with external stakeholders by presenting at national or international conferences, engaging with virtual PLNs and thought leaders, and expressing constituent opinions on education technology policy.

2b Advocate for equitable access to educational technology, digital content and learning opportunities to meet the diverse needs of all students.

Equitable access: When all students have access to technology needed for learning and to culturally relevant curriculum and resources regardless of race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, gender identity, sexuality, ability, primary language or any other factor that might hinder or unfairly advantage one student over another.
Educational technology: Devices, apps, webs resources, internet access, technology support and other digital tools used to deepen learning.
Digital content: Digital content may include open educational resources (OERs); digital media and podcasts; digital curriculum, including culturally relevant curriculum; news and other websites; and digitized original or historical resources such as newspapers, virtual field trips or virtual reality (VR) software and devices.
Learning opportunities: Educators plan for learning that accommodates differing access levels and individual student needs, for example, providing homework alternatives for students who do not have internet access at home, providing competency-based or other opportunities to demonstrate learning, scaffolding student learning to challenge and support individual students where they are and advocating for an equitable system for all students.
Diverse needs: Diverse needs might include learner variability; language skills; technology and internet access levels outside of school; cultural specificity and challenges at home such as poverty, homelessness or instability.

2c Model for colleagues the identification, exploration, evaluation, curation and adoption of new digital resources and tools for learning.

Identification: Finding new tools or resources to enhance learning by asking or observing colleagues or students, reading related publications and following other educators or thought leaders.
Exploration: Experimenting with new tools and resources for learning and being open to calculated risk-taking and productive failure for continuous learning.
Evaluation: Analyzing and reflecting on the value of a new tool or resource for learning and possible improvements for the next time it is used.
Curation: Thoughtfully organizing resources in a way that is useful and meaningful.
Adoption: Incorporating selected new resources and strategies into regular practice.
New digital resources and tools for learning: These may include OERs; apps, websites and other software; hardware tools and devices; networked devices and the Internet of Things; and emerging pedagogies around digital tools and resources.

7a Provide alternative ways for students to demonstrate competency and reflect on their learning using technology.

Alternative ways to demonstrate competency: Alternatives for how students demonstrate knowledge, skills and dispositions might include students exhibiting competency in a final project or presentation; using an e-portfolio system that manages student artifacts and reflections; and allowing students to choose their pathway for learning and when they show competency rather than forcing all learners into the same pace or schedule.
Reflect on their learning: Use digital tools to reflect on the process of learning, successes and areas for improvement, and to set goals for future adjustments to improve learning focus, process or approach.

7b Use technology to design and implement a variety of formative and summative assessments that accommodate learner needs, provide timely feedback to students and inform instruction.

Formative assessments: For example, apps that take real-time measures of knowledge and understanding through surveys or embedded questions; recording software that allows students to reflect on or explain their thinking; sites and apps where students respond to discussion or reflection questions; and backchannel chats or messaging systems that allow students to ask questions or clarify for each other.
Summative assessments: For example, tests that allow for visual, interactive or other responses as an alternative to traditional testing questions; performance-based assessments that showcase knowledge, process and thinking; portfolios, videos or competency-based assessments that can be completed and evaluated when students feel ready; and tools that differentiate for students of differing abilities.
Accommodate learner needs: Account for and understand diverse student learning needs to support the success of all learners.
Timely feedback: Feedback that maximizes digital tools to provide students substantive feedback as quickly as possible. Examples include built-in data capturing of assessment systems and other digital tools; modeling how to understand and use tool-embedded feedback mechanisms such as "help" tips, error notifications and gamified success or failures; using commenting tools or audio and video tools to provide direct feedback on student work.
Inform instruction: Analyzing assessment data to adjust current instruction or iterate on future instruction. Applies to both class-wide and individual student instruction approaches.

7c Use assessment data to guide progress and communicate with students, parents and education stakeholders to build student self-direction.

Student assessment data: Information from both formative and summative assessments about student strengths, gaps, preferences and current achievement that can be used to adjust and enhance individual student learning.
Student self-direction: Student ownership of learning goals, process and demonstrations of competency that can be enhanced with transparency and knowledge of how to capitalize on assessment data from teachers, administrators, parents or guardians and students themselves.
