20 Technology Skills Every Educator Should Have

During the last 15 years, we in education have moved at light speed in the area of educational technology. Whether you are involved in higher ed, secondary ed, elementary ed, or special ed, all of us find it difficult to catch up, keep up, and put up with fast-moving computer-based technology. Not since the introduction of the blackboard have we seen a piece of equipment make such a difference in how we teach. Today, not only do we use computers, but we also have laptops, wireless laptops, and tablet PCs. In addition, we have the World Wide Web, scanners, CD burners, USB drives, digital cameras and digital video cameras, PDAs, as well as video and DVD players. And most educators use a variety of tools-including video, e-mail, desktop conferencing, online programs such as WebCT and Blackboard, as well as video conferencing-to teach. Thus, it is no longer acceptable for educators to be technology illiterate.

With that in mind, here is a comprehensive listing of the technology skills that every educator should have. Because as computer and associated technologies continue to change and evolve, educators must continue to strive for excellence in their work. Today that includes continued time and effort to maintain and improve their technology skills (as much as some educators do not want to admit).

Here are 20 basic technology skills that all educators should now have:

1. Word Processing Skills

2. Spreadsheets Skills

3. Database Skills

4. Electronic Presentation Skills

5. Web Navigation Skills

6. Web Site Design Skills

7. E-Mail Management Skills

8. Digital Cameras

9. Computer Network Knowledge Applicable to your School System

10. File Management & Windows Explorer Skills

11. Downloading Software From the Web (Knowledge including eBooks)

12. Installing Computer Software onto a Computer System

13. WebCT or Blackboard Teaching Skills

14. Videoconferencing skills

15. Computer-Related Storage Devices (Knowledge: disks, CDs, USB drives, zip disks, DVDs, etc.)

16. Scanner Knowledge

17. Knowledge of PDAs

18. Deep Web Knowledge

19. Educational Copyright Knowledge

20. Computer Security Knowledge

Educators should be able to use some type of word processing program to complete written tasks in a timely manner. See the following Web sites for helpful information and tutorials.

As the NBA season begins this year, as always, a new star is sure to rise through the ranks. The question often asked though, is how do they do it? What key skills do they possess to become a great basketball player? What is it they have that means that the basketball scoreboards are always showing their name!

I have broken down the key skills of a basketball player into the following 6 categories:

1- Basketball skill
2 - Physical ability
3 - Thinking big
4 - Aggressiveness
5 - Confidence
6 - Being in the moment

Basketball Skill

Quite simply, you have to have the fundamental skills to play the game. These range from shooting and passing, to rebounding and defence. As obvious as it is, top level players won't last long if they don't keep these skills at the highest level. These skills are the foundation on which every successful career in the NBA is built.

Physical Ability

The best players are typically extremely good athletes. Being athletic does not mean just being fast, strong, or the best jumper - these are the skills people associate with athleticism, but the word has a more refined meaning. The best basketball players are mobile, agile, and have excellent hand to eye coordination.

Thinking Big

Many players have lingering doubts about their own abilities. The top players though have long learned to stop that kind of thinking. They are not satisfied with what they achieved last season, month, or on the last game. The best players set high goals and think big.
Top players who got, for example, 20 points on the scoreboards a game last season aim to increase that by at least 3 baskets per game. The same with rebounds, and every other part of the game. The goals are big, and they strive towards them with determination.

Aggressiveness

Top players are very aggressive every time they play. Even if they are a quiet person off the court, they become fierce and determined when playing, and this level of passion and competitiveness sends their game even higher.

Confidence

Even if you are a big thinker and have great basketball ability and physical skills, this only gets you so far. The best players have the confidence that enables them to take their game to the next level. They believe in themselves and know that they can dominate in each and every game.

Being in the Moment

Top NBA players do not over-think the game. They do not let a bad play get to them and impact them negatively on the next play. They keep calm inside when taking the free point throw, and do not let negative thoughts keep them from playing to the best of their abilities.
So this is how the best players do it, and if you want to be a great player, you need to work hard on all 6 of these skill sets.
