Noted similari es:

The ISTA standards for educators and students are meant to assist both the teacher and the student in
using technology responsibly to support student learning, solve problems, express their crea vity, work
with groups/teams, and help them become competent in using technology appropriately and
confidently.

Both standards lay the founda on and basic standards for students' successful use of technology in ways
that will support their learning today.

Noted differences:

When it comes to the standards for educators, they are targeted toward providing students with
guidance and encouragement in developing skills to use technology in safe, produc ve, and responsible
ways. Standards are geared toward growing their students and empowering them. Student standards are
targeted at helping students become independent in using technology to support their learning, such as
communica ng with others, using technology crea vely, recognizing problems, and coming up with
solu ons. Educator standards are focused on teachers facilita ng, laying the founda on, and providing
instruc on. In contrast, student standards are focused on helping students learn to use technology
appropriately and safely for themselves and their be erment.
