 STANDARDS (TESOL technology
standard)
Presented by Amadou Abdoulaye Seck
The rationale for the Standards is to
level the playing field and guide
teachers toward more effective
practice. The Technology Standards
will also give prominence to
technological issues, help educators
realize the potential benefits of
technology, and prompt educators to
learn to use technology in their
teaching.
