Online Teacher Competencies and Resources
Idaho Online Teacher Competencies & Resources Based on the National Standards for Quality Online Teaching, this tool was developed to outline teacher competencies, resources, and professional development regarding support of a blended learning model, which teachers can implement by balancing between on-screen and off-screen activities. Please note that the “online teacher” designation that begins each standard can more broadly refer to teachers who implement the blended learning model. The team of educators who developed this tool has extensive experience in supporting technology integration with educators throughout the state. The intention is to provide a digital landing page from which educators can access standards-aligned tools and resources to support blended learning pedagogy. This document has specific resources for Phase 1 standards. Phase 1 standards prioritize initial needs with supporting a blended learning model. Phase 2 and 3 build upon those initial needs and are also listed in the document, but without specific resources. The team believes that when teachers enter Phases 2 and 3, it is a refinement of what they have learned in Phase 1. Through Phase 1, teachers have built the necessary skills to seek out needed information. Table of Contents Use the links below to navigate to different sections of the document Phase 1 Standards: ● Digital Pedagogy ● Learner Engagement ● Assessment and Measurement Phase 2 Standards: ● Digital Citizenship ● Instructional Design Phase 3 Standards: ● Professional Responsibilities ● Community Building ● Diverse Instruction Phase 1 Standard B: Digital Pedagogy The online teacher supports learning and facilitates presence (teacher, social, and learner) with digital pedagogy. Substandard B1: The online teacher uses digital pedagogical tools that support communication, productivity, collaboration, analysis, presentation, research, content delivery, and interaction.
