The reading for Chapter 7 was about understanding administrative and academic softwares work and how they apply to the job of educators. ISTE's NETS emphasizes the importance of being able to use administrative and academic softwares properly, in order to improve teaching, productivity and learning in schools. As future teachers, we must be able to select and know how to operate software(s) that can be used in our classrooms.
The chapter reading explained the purpose of administrative softwares and how they are narrowed down into two catergories: Productivity software(s) & classroom management software(s). The two different softwares are used by educators as helpful tools in the classroom that help manage school and classroom tasks. An example of an administative software is the word processing program. Through the software, educators may use transparencies, activity sheets, study guides and class notes to help support productivity in their classroom. Learning about theses types of softwares will help us address the NETS*T standards required for educators in the school system.
