Ed Tech Champions is Back for 2024 -2025!
Empowered Learner: Featured ISTE Student Standard
Below is an overview of the Ed Tech Champions initiative. Visit the Ed Tech Champions website or view these FAQ's for full details and how to participate.
How does it work?
Every month, the Ed Tech department will roll out a coaching challenge based on one of the ISTE Student Standards. Each standard includes four different indicators. You have the opportunity to complete a coaching cycle with your tech coach using one of the indicators to earn a stipend! You can earn an additional stipend if you plan a collaborative cycle that includes your Tech Coach and other members of your coaching team.
When do I have to have it done by?
For each coaching cycle you complete with your tech coach, you will submit a Google Form and reflective journal. Due dates are flexible, but stipends can't be paid unless they are turned in. Once you have submitted your Google Form you will receive a confirmation email letting you know your submission is being reviewed.
Do I have to do every challenge?
Nope! We encourage teachers to work with their tech coach to select a challenge or two that best fits their professional needs. All of the standards and indicators are available for you to view. Keep in mind, we are restricting participants to completing up to 8 challenges over the course of the program.
Who can participate?
Any Granite educator who instructs students during the school day and is able to complete the monthly requirements in an authentic manner.
