Overview of Standards Addressed

The best enhancement to my teaching has been integrating technology.  Aside from the increased engagement, I feel most accomplished in changing my practice to include more 21st century skills that the students must be well-versed in.  You'll find an overview of the standards that I've integrated into my action research project and its lessons below.
