All year long, but especially during Teacher Appreciation Week, NJTEEA
values STEM & Technology & Engineering educators whose dedication, commitment, and support help advance technological and
engineering literacy for ALL!
In honor of teacher appreciation week, NJTEEA invites you to share your legacy story. Every teacher has a story behind why they became an educator. NJTEEA wants to know who inspired you to pursue Technology & Engineering Education as a career and what you are doing to encourage the NEXT GENERATION of Technology & Engineering Educators.

COVID - 19 Resources:
As a response to the COVID-19 virus, school districts throughout the country are exploring the use of online instructional methods in order to continue to deliver high quality instruction to students. As a result TEEAP and NJTEEA have decided to join efforts to aid our members in sharing content and ideas that can be delivered in an online setting only. We encourage anyone who is developing lessons for use online, to share their content with others. We have set up a Google Drive that should be shared with anyone developing useful materials. To access the drive please copy and paste the following link into a web browser

Please consider helping our fellow members develop lessons and help our profession deliver quality content during this unprecedented situation.
New Jersey Technology Standards
Below is a Google Doc that is easy to add to your drive for all of the New Jersey Standards. If you would like standards for a specific grade level band, navigate to our "Standards" page for more resources.
Defining the Levels of Maker Space
NJTEEA has worked with teachers across the state in various types of maker spaces in order to define what makes a "good" maker space. As a result, NJTEEA has defined five different levels of maker spaces, each with its own unique qualities.
An abbreviated handout and slideshow is linked below.
