We’re realigning our courses to the new ISTE Standards to equip today’s educator with the knowledge & skills to impact student learning. This realignment allows us to continue to improve the COETAIL experience while staying true to our ethos. COETAIL Course 5 brings all your learning together with the Application of Innovative Pedagogy. With a focus on developing as Leaders and Analysts, this course is a semester-long, hands-on experience to culminate your journey.

“The ISTE Standards for Educators are your road map to helping students become empowered learners. These standards will deepen your practice, promote collaboration with peers, challenge you to rethink traditional approaches and prepare students to drive their own learning.” (source)

We reached out to our COETAIL alumni to better understand how they grew during the COETAIL program.

The next ISTE Standard in our series is Citizen:

ISTE Standards for Educators // Analyst
Educators understand and use data to drive their instruction and support students in achieving their learning goals. Educators:
7a.
Provide alternative ways for students to demonstrate competency and reflect on their learning using technology.
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.
7c.
Use assessment data to guide progress and communicate with students, parents and education stakeholders to build student self-direction.

Eduro Learning embraces a community approach to learning. We believe that our community is essential to COETAIL’s identity so we are letting their voices speak for the program. Below, COETAILers share how they grew as Analysts during their journey.

I analyzed the data taken from the grade book to see the trends in students learning and adjusted my instruction accordingly.

The feedback loop that you receive from writing blogs, commenting other’s blogs, and posting publicly for others to provide you with their insights have allowed me to reflect on my teaching, writing, and big ideas.

My COETAIL PLN has helped me learn about new tools that can help me assess student learning as well as redefine tasks for all learners. I have enjoyed seeing how others use particular tools as it inspires me to try new things to help all of my learners.

I often ask for students feedback and collect data from different sources and in different ways to support teaching and learning.
