Standards? What are those!? Well, I am glad you asked! Imagine a world with no rules, no expectations, no... standards. Chaotic, right? Standards are put in place so that everyone has some level of accountability, educators included. Professional educators must adhere to several standards to ensure that they are putting their best foot forward both in and outside of the workplace, making ethical decisions, and striving to maintain overall excellence. While there are plenty of standards that can be used when talking about professional educators, perhaps MTTS, ISTE, NAEYC, and InTASC paint the best portrait of what it means to be a facilitator of active learning (you can click on each infographic to view more on each of the standards)!
