ISTE stands for International Society for Technology in Education.  From its webpage, ISTE states, “Simply being able to use technology is no longer enough. Today's students need to be able to use technology to analyze, learn and explore. Digital age skills are vital for preparing students to work, live and contribute to the social and civic fabric of their communities.”

Their webpage has standards for students, teachers, administrators, coaches, and technology teachers.  ISTE awards a seal of alignment for those meeting their standards.

Students have six standards they should meet or exceed in the following areas:
            Creativity and innovation
            Communication and collaboration
            Research and information fluency
            Critical thinking, problem solving, and decision making
            Digital citizenship
            Technology operations and concepts

Teachers have five standards:
            Facilitate and inspire creativity and innovation
            Design and develop digital age learning experiences and assessments
            Model digital age work and learning
            Promote and model digital citizenship and responsibility

            Engage in professional growth and leadership
