What will students do with technology -- and how will it transform learning?
Technology is just a tool; it is what you do with it that makes an impact.
The ISTE Standards for Students, developed by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE), provide a framework for using technology to support student-driven learning. Grounded in research and best practices, these standards emphasize developmentally appropriate, meaningful use of digital tools across grade levels. They focus on empowering students to be creative thinkers, responsible digital citizens, and collaborative problem-solvers in a connected world.
