 * Whilst Education Queensland professional development and certification is not applicable to Brisbane Catholic Education employees, I would provide the examples below as evidence for the attainment of the standards described. **

I am committed to developing my digital pedagogy to improve student learning opportunities
 * **Indicator** || **Evidence** ||
 * **//Professional Values//**

To develop my digital pedagogy, I set my own learning goals based on regular reflection of my own professional practice and determined needs

I critically review and select from digital resources and teaching and learning approaches and adapt where necessary

I operate safely, legally, ethically and in accordance with departmental policy when using digital resources, technologies and online environments. I teach and model these practices with students || The use of wikispaces, prezi, glogster etc is evidence of my desire to constantly improve my classroom teaching.

Selection of ICT courses as a preference in my Master course is evidence of the reflection of my professional development needs.

As a curriculum leader in the school, I try to lead by example in selecting learning objects, software choices and learning experiences that are appropriate and embedded in the curriculum. (Religious Education and mathematics examples)

In the examples cited above, I constantly remind students about on-line safety and appropriate use of technology. These are embedded into my normal teaching practices. || I seek opportunities to contribute to professional teams to share what I know and do regarding digital pedagogy || As a curriculum leader, I constantly try to support all departments toward the appropriate use of technology in their departments. As evidenced by the Professional Development activity run this term, I seek opportunities to share my knowledge with staff using and modelling appropriate pedagogies. || I understand how ICT can support and enhance what students learn, how they learn, and when and where their learning takes place || Through the use of collaborative tools, I demonstrate that I understand how the appropriate use of ICT in the curriculum can enhance students' understanding and work habits. || I provide opportunities for students to purposefully use online environments to communicate or collaborate with others in their learning, including participation in projects in local, national or global communities

I plan learning experiences within units of work where ICT is used through all stages of the learning process to achieve curriculum goals based on students' diverse learning needs

I provide opportunities for students to construct, deepen and demonstrate knowledge using digital resources and technologies in inquiry processes

I provide opportunities for students to use digital resources, technologies and online environments to enhance the learning of concepts and processes

I promote students' reflective learning, critical thinking skills and creativity through the use of digital resources and technologies

I develop students' digital literacies including the ability to authenticate, critically evaluate and select relevant information and resources || Through the use of wikispaces, I provide students with the opportunity to purposefully use online environments to communicate or collaborate with others in their learning

Evidenced in the Religious Education and Mathematics examples cited, I plan learning experiences where ICT is embedded throughout the unit to achieve stated goals. Students have the opportunity to construct, deepen and demonstrate knowledge using blogs and wikis, presentation tools and collaboration. These digital resources and online environments are used with purposeful goals designed to enhance student learning outcomes. Reflective thinking and creativity are listed as some of these goals.

In using these tools regularly in the classroom, and embedding the use within the curriculum plan, I am developing the students' digital literacies to be more effective users of ICT in their daily lives. ||
