The apple teacher badges are relevant to my future classroom because they help me to understand the tools I may use in the classroom. I chose the iste standard “1. Empowered Learner - d. understand the fundamental concepts of technology operations, demonstrate the ability to choose, use and troubleshoot current technologies and are able to transfer their knowledge to explore emerging technologies.” I think it is important for both teachers and students to use the technology tools appropriately to further their knowledge. Along with the use of technology in classrooms I think it is important for teachers to choose appropriate means of technology to best promote students learning.
