  1. A teacher wants students to present research findings using multimedia. Which expectation BEST reflects higher-order technology integration?

    Answer: Students create a video documentary synthesizing multiple sources with original narration

    Creating an original documentary requires synthesis, evaluation, and creative production—higher-order skills on Bloom's digital taxonomy.

  2. A teacher wants to use a gamified platform to increase student engagement with math practice. What is the MOST important consideration?

    Answer: Whether the game aligns with grade-level standards and provides data on student progress

    Standards alignment and progress data ensure the gamified practice builds targeted skills and allows the teacher to monitor mastery.

    Answer: Design offline-capable alternatives and advocate for school hotspot lending programs

    Providing offline alternatives and supporting school hotspot programs addresses the digital divide without excluding or penalizing students.

  5. A teacher uses virtual manipulatives during a math lesson instead of physical ones. What is the PRIMARY advantage of this substitution?

    Answer: Virtual manipulatives provide unlimited access, can be customized, and allow immediate reset without cleanup

    Virtual manipulatives are accessible on any device, can be infinitely customized and reset, and remove logistical barriers of physical materials.

  6. A teacher wants to use technology to support metacognitive skills. Which activity is MOST effective?

    Answer: Asking students to record a short video reflection on what they learned and what confused them

    Video self-reflection requires students to evaluate their own understanding and articulate areas of confusion, building metacognitive awareness.
