A grassroots effort, this process involved nearly 1,200 North Carolinians from across the state and represents an exciting statewide consensus among K-12 educators, administrators, families, employers, communities, and higher education institutions.

The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction began working directly with local school districts during Spring 2022 to solicit broad participation and engagement from educators, administrators, students and families to employers, community leaders, higher education, and workforce development boards across all eight of the state's educational regions.

Volunteers were organized into Design Teams, which collaborated over three months to determine the key competencies that would be included in the final Portrait. These teams were primarily comprised of students, teachers, parents, and administrators, and were joined by the following cross-sector partners:

There are a lot of different technological resources available to teachers than I thought initially. And it is important for teachers to use these resources strategically in their classroom to enhance student learning.

I think these standards are important because students are going to use technology more in the future as it advances, so that is why it is important to incorporate technology in the classroom.

There is a lot more to teaching than just presenting the subject material. As teachers, we also have a responsibility as public servants to teach our students how to apply their learning journey into every branch of our society. This includes all the aspects of digital literacy. I found this helpful information but also daunting, as it is another aspect that must be incorporated into the lesson. I understand it should flow naturally, but any new skill requires practice and deliberate effort to gain proficiency.
