AECT Standards

This table aligns the AECT standards to the artifacts that I created as a part of my coursework in the M.E.T. program at Boise State University.

Standards	Links to Artifacts
STANDARD 1 DESIGN Candidates demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to design conditions for learning by applying principles of instructional systems design, message design, instructional strategies, and learner characteristics.
1.1 Instructional Systems Design Instructional Systems Design (ISD) is an organized procedure that includes the steps of analyzing, designing, developing, implementing, and evaluating instruction.	Self-directed Blackboard Training for Students at the College of Western Idaho: Instructional Design Plan (503: Instructional Design)
1.2 Message Design Message design involves planning for the manipulation of the physical form of the message.	Cell Biology Unit Plan of Instruction (506: Graphic Design for Learning)
1.3 Instructional Strategies Instructional strategies are specifications for selecting and sequencing events and activities within a lesson.	Jigsaw Activity: How is DNA regulated in the cell? (502: Internet for Educators) WebQuest Activity: Fermentation-Beneficial Bacteria and Fungi in Food (502: Internet for Educators)
1.4 Learner Characteristics Learner characteristics are those facets of the learner's experiential background that impact the effectiveness of a learning process.	The Mobile Learning Environment: Synthesis Paper (504: Theoretical Foundations of Educational Technology)
STANDARD 2 DEVELOPMENT Candidates demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to develop instructional materials and experiences using print, audiovisual, computer-based, and integrated technologies.
2.1 Print Technologies Print technologies are ways to produce or deliver materials, such as books and static visual materials, primarily through mechanical or photographic printing processes.	Phases of the Cell Cycle (506: Graphic Design for Learning) Chromosome Duplication (506: Graphic Design for Learning)
2.2 Audiovisual Technologies Audiovisual technologies are ways to produce or deliver materials by using mechanical devices or electronic machines to present auditory and visual messages.	Information Literacy: Digital Images Synchronous Lesson(523: Advanced Online Teaching Methods) "The Happy Horticulturist" Podcast (513: Multimedia)
2.3 Computer-Based Technologies Computer-based technologies are ways to produce or deliver materials using microprocessor-based resources.	Biomes of the World: Virtual Field Trip (502: Internet for Educators) Welcome to Evernote Tutorial (522: Online Teaching for Adult Learners )
2.4 Integrated Technologies Integrated technologies are ways to produce and deliver materials which encompass several forms of media under the control of a computer.	Concepts of Biology: Project Plan (512: Online Course Design) Cell Biology: Unit of Instruction (506: Graphic Design for Learning) Water and the Molecules of Life (513: Multimedia)
STANDARD 3 UTILIZATION Candidates demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to use processes and resources for learning by applying principles and theories of media utilization, diffusion, implementation, and policy-making.
3.1 Media Utilization Media utilization is the systematic use of resources for learning.	Personal Learning Network (543: Social Networking) Managing Online Reputation (543: Social Networking)
3.2 Diffusion of Innovations Diffusion of innovations is the process of communicating through planned strategies for the purpose of gaining adoption.	Pinterest Content Curation: Evolution/Natural Selection (543: Social Networking)
3.3 Implementation and Institutionalization Implementation is using instructional materials or strategies in real(not simulated) settings. Institutionalization is the continuing, routine use of the instructional innovation in the structure and culture of an organization.	Healthy Living MOOC (543: Social Networking) Information Literacy: Digital Images Synchronous Lesson (523: Advanced Online Teaching Methods)
3.4 Policies and Regulations Policies and regulations are the rules and actions of society (or its surrogates) that affect the diffusion and use of Instructional Technology.	Copyright Scavenger Hunt (502: Internet for Educators) Online Course Netiquette (502: Internet for Educators) Creating a Social Media Policy for Higher Education (543: Social Networking)
STANDARD 4 MANAGEMENT Candidates demonstrate knowledge, skills, and dispositions to plan, organize, coordinate, and supervise instructional technology by applying principles of project, resource, delivery system, and information management.
4.1 Project Management Project management involves planning, monitoring, and controlling instructional design and development projects.	Concepts of Biology: Implementation Plan (512: Online Course Design)
4.2 Resource Management Resource management involves planning, monitoring, and controlling resource support systems and services.	Technology Use Plan (501: Introduction to Educational Technology)
4.3 Delivery System Management Delivery system management involves planning, monitoring and controlling 'the method by which distribution of instructional materials is organized' . . . [It is] a combination of medium and method of usage that is employed to present instructional information to a learner.	Concepts of Biology: Project Plan (512: Online Course Design)
4.4 Information Management Information management involves planning, monitoring, and controlling the storage, transfer, or processing of information in order to provide resources for learning.	Cell Biology: Unit of Instruction (506: Graphic Design for Learning)
STANDARD 5 EVALUATION Candidates demonstrate knowledge, skills, and dispositions to evaluate the adequacy of instruction and learning by applying principles of problem analysis, criterion-referenced measurement, formative and summative evaluation, and long-range planning.
5.1 Problem Analysis Problem analysis involves determining the nature and parameters of the problem by using information-gathering and decision-making strategies.	Communication Plan (523: Advanced Online Teaching Methods)
5.2 Criterion-Referenced Measurement Criterion-referenced measurement involves techniques for determining learner mastery of pre-specified content.	Webquest rubric (502: Internet for Educators) MOOC Digital Badges (543: Social Networking)
5.3 Formative and Summative Evaluation Formative evaluation involves gathering information on adequacy and using this information as a basis for further development. Summative evaluation involves gathering information on adequacy and using this information to make decisions about utilization.	Concepts of Biology: Evaluation Plan (512: Online Course Design))
5.4 Long-Range Planning Long-range planning that focuses on the organization as a whole is strategic planning. Long-range is usually defined as a future period of about three to five years or longer. During strategic planning, managers are trying to decide in the present what must be done to ensure organizational success in the future.
