WEEKLY ASSIGNMENT

Question for the week. A response is to be sent to me at jimjeff@andrews.edu.during the week.

  • Interactive Section (see description). I would like you to complete a fairly easy assessment tool. This tool, which is a companion to the Professional Competency Continuum document, has been designed to provide educators with an opportunity to assess their status within the educational technology skills and knowledge areas described in that continuum. The PCC Assessment Tool features two different assessments.
  • Go to http://www.mff.org/pubterms.taf?file=http://www.mff.org/pubs/PCC.pdf. Fill in the required data (name, e-mail, etc.). The material 2.33MB will download in a .pdf format to your computer. Please print off (pages 6-11) and complete the 25 questions for Administrative Competency ONLY .
  • Think reflectively about where you are Entry, Adaptation, or Transformation. E-mail me at jimjeff@andrews.edu and tell me how you did. I'm really not interested in your score but how well you looked at the different identifiers of where you stand on the technology competency scales.
