NOTICE OF REGIONAL PUBLIC HEARINGS

The Florida Education Standards Commission, in collaboration with the Office of

Educational Technology, Florida Department of Education, has completed a review

of State Board of Education Rule, 6A-5.065, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.),

The Educator Accomplished Practices, Competencies for Teachers of the Twenty-

First Century, Practice #12, Technology. The purpose of the review was to bring the

Sample Key Indicators at all three benchmark levels, Preprofessional, Professional,

and Accomplished, in congruence with the current standards of the International

Society for Technology in Education. At this time, the Commission has completed

making initial recommendations to update the Sample Key Indicators for Technology

for all three benchmark levels, Preprofessional, Professional, and Accomplished.

The Accomplished Practices are an integral part of the State Program Approval Process for

Preservice Preparation Programs (Rule 6A-5.066, F.A.C.) at the Preprofessional Level. The

Accomplished Practices are also required of the Colleges of Education Preservice Programs.

School Districts use the Accomplished Practices for Induction Programs for new employees,

for Professional Development, and for Performance Evaluation.

The Florida Education Standards Commission is soliciting your input regarding the proposed

revisions in Accomplished Practice #12, Technology. The regional public hearings are

designed for you to provide your opinion(s) and suggestion(s) for modifications. The Florida

Education Standards Commission members and staff will not make a formal presentation on

these recommendations at the public hearings.

You or your representative(s) are invited to
