a. What are the ISTE standards that you possess? Please cite specific personal experiences wherein you portray such standards?

The ISTE standards that I possess are empowered learner, digital citizen and knowledge constructor.

Every time I have assignments or activities like essays or I wrote something, I usually go to grammar-check tools via online to check if my grammar was correct. In that way I wasn't just able to know what's the correct construction of the sentences but I also learned a lot from it and by that I was an empowered learner.

Having many accounts in social media is just normal  for us specially today that we are in technology and visiting each account everyday gets your free time. And whenever I'm bored I usually gave time in visiting all of them but I see to it that I only spent a little time in scanning and in using my phone and laptop. In posting online I never used bad words and I never made some arguments online. I knew who, when, what are the things to be posted and not because as a digital citizen one must recognize the rights and responsibilities in an interconnected world and one must stay ethical in whatever she/he does online.

In my anatomy subject last semester, we were tasked to have a research on some of the common immunity diseases. We made some questionnaires and then ask the people. After gathering the information we summarizes and made a table to simplify it all. We present it in class through power point and video presentation. We then reflect on what we have learned out from that and I can say that I am a knowledge constructor.

b. As a future teacher, in what ways can you develop these standards among your students?

As a future teacher, I have a lot of things and ideas in my mind on how I'll handle my students and on how I will transfer the knowledge to them that they would easily catch it up. In fact I am excited to impart to them the knowledge I have. Having these standards are of great help as a guide or tool to us teachers to help our students to learn better and be a globally competitive person. And as a future educator, I will let my students do activities with the use of technology in accordance to the proper use and limitations of it. I will task them to do some research. In that way they can be able to analyze, evaluate and select the good and exact information from the different sources and media. I will give them assignments, quizzes through educational sites or apps. I will give them some collaborative activities in order for them to interact with other peers and for them to develop cultural understanding with others and in presenting my lessons I will use different technology or digital media to have an effective transfer of knowledge. I will prepare my students for the future so that they will be ready and will live productively.

Learning Log 1

As part of the 21st Century generation I must be equipped with knowledge and skills in order to compete and excel in this world. The skills that I must need to develop are the following; communication and collaboration skill in order to interact effectively with other people. The next one is the flexibility and adaptability to easily collaborate with others. Productivity and accountability in order to be more effective in meeting goals and the last one is the leadership and responsibility to become a more responsible leader in the team and to guide and inspire them. And to develop these skills I must be open-minded about all the ideas and suggestions with other people. In attending seminars I must have the courage to interact with other people and be sensitive enough to know our differences. And in a collaborative group I must be responsible enough to take the lead of the group and also ask some ideas from my group mates. We must be cooperative in order to meet and finish the goal.

As a future educator, I will develop the 21st Century Skills in my students with determination, responsibility and commitment. I will teach my students the proper use of technology for them not to overuse and misuse it. I will give them group activities in order for them to collaborate and interact with their classmates in that way they will be able to know more of their classmates and also to know and understand their social and cultural differences. I will let them watch some video presentation and let them share their reflection and ideas on what they watched all about. I will also use power point presentation in discussing my lessons. I will let them do a research and conduct an interview other people and then let them analyze and evaluate the information critically. As a future teacher I will do my best for the students to learn and absorb all the ideas taught to them so that they will be competent and knowledgeable enough.
