IOWA CORE

Demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and processes using technology.

Apply existing knowledge to generate new ideas, products, or processes.

  • Students design, develop, create, and/or test self-generated digital learning objects that are accessible by as many users as possible, and demonstrate knowledge and skills related to curriculum content.

Create original works as a means of personal or group expression.

  • Students individually or collaboratively create media-rich products to be displayed, published, or performed for a variety of audiences.

Use models and simulations to explore complex systems and issues.

  • Students employ curriculum-specific, technology-based simulations to aid them in understanding complex, real-world systems. Simulation studies include formulating problems, developing models, running models, and analyzing outputs that help predict behaviors and outcomes.

Demonstrate a sound understanding of technology concepts, systems and operations.

Understand and use technology systems

  • Students adapt to evolving technology systems and apply them for everyday use. They also interpret the underlying structure of the system so it can be used for multiple purposes and applied to unique situations.


MISIC

Interact, collaborate, and publish with peers, experts, or others employing a variety of digital environments and media.

Using technology, interact and collaborate with peers, experts, and others to contribute to a content-related, media-rich knowledge base by compiling, synthesizing, producing, and disseminating information, models, and other creative works.

Create multimedia presentations that capture and share learning.

Create presentations that include appropriate text, visuals, and auditory components to share understanding of a given topic.

Use technology and multimedia tools to communicate effectively.

Select and use appropriate software and hardware to enhance the message (e.g. PowerPoint, graphic images, Internet resources, clip art, video, and video streaming). Understand the "language" of the technology.
