A) CUE
B) USDA
C) NCATE

Accepted Answer

The ISTE Standards-T (ISTE Standards for Teachers) defines the fundamental concepts, knowledge, skills, and attitudes for applying technology in K-12 educational settings. CUE (Computer-Using Educators) and USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) are organizations that do not specifically focus on technology integration in education. NCATE (National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education) is a former accreditation body for teacher education programs, but it did not specifically focus on technology integration either.

Question 9

A(n) ____ is a collection of evidence to document your development and growth in the teaching profession.
A) I-Net
B) ePortfolio
C) Net-dossier
D) Tech-file

Accepted Answer

An ePortfolio is a collection of evidence, such as lesson plans, student work samples, reflections, and professional development activities, that showcases a teacher's growth and development in the profession. This can be used for self-reflection, evaluation, and as evidence of professional competence for certification or job applications. The other options (I-Net, Net-dossier, and Tech-file) do not accurately describe this type of collection of evidence for teaching.

Question 10

Without a sound understanding of technology ____, students cannot compete in a technology rich global society.
A) concepts
B) rules
C) policies
D) systems

Accepted Answer

Without a sound understanding of technology concepts, students will struggle to utilize technology effectively and compete in a technology-rich global society. Rules, policies, and systems can all be learned and implemented with a basic understanding of technology concepts.

Question 11

____ are great activities for teachers to help students understand and take responsibility for legal and ethical issues.
A) Lectures
B) Videos
C) Debates
D) Worksheets

Accepted Answer

Debates require students to take a position on legal and ethical issues, defend their arguments with evidence, and respectfully listen to their classmates' points of view. This encourages critical thinking, active participation, and empathy, which are important skills for responsible citizenship. Lectures, videos, and worksheets, on the other hand, may convey information but do not necessarily engage students in authentic learning experiences.

Question 12

____ literacy is an essential component of information literacy.
A) Numerical
B) Graphical
C) Grammatical
D) Statistical

Accepted Answer

Statistical literacy is the ability to understand, interpret, and communicate statistical information. It involves the ability to read and critically evaluate statistical studies, as well as make informed decisions based on statistical evidence. Therefore, statistical literacy is closely related to information literacy, which is the ability to find, evaluate, and use information effectively. The other options (numerical, graphical, and grammatical literacy) are also important, but do not necessarily have the same direct overlap with information literacy as statistical literacy.

A) community learning
B) anchored instruction
C) VLEs
D) learning communities

Accepted Answer

VLEs (Virtual Learning Environments) are online platforms that provide students and teachers with tools for communication, collaboration, and content organization. The use of VLEs has led to an increased rationale for ePortfolios, as these platforms often include features for creating and sharing digital portfolios.

A) important
B) vital
C) accurate
D) essential

Accepted Answer

It is important for students to be able to determine if the information they have found is accurate so that they are not using misleading or false information. Validity and appropriateness are also important, but accuracy takes precedence in ensuring reliable and trustworthy information.

Accepted Answer

The Industrial Age refers to the period of time when industries and factories were booming and assembly line production was common.

Question 20

____ is a flexible management system that provides institutions of higher learning with advanced and user-friendly Web-based tools for developing, assessing, and measuring student learning and more.
A) ePortfolio Online
B) LiveText
C) TeacherWeb
D) all of the above

Accepted Answer

The description matches LiveText, which is a management system specifically designed for higher education institutions to track student learning outcomes and more. Options A and C are not as specific to higher education and do not necessarily include features for measuring student learning outcomes. Option D is incorrect as it includes options A and C which are not the best choices.
