The ISTE Standards for Students are the standard in developing a vision and curriculum that prepare students to use technology effectively now and for their future. Wixie’s combination of templates, blank screen options, authoring tools and project features provides powerful opportunities for students to meet the goals of the ISTE Standards.

Any project that starts from a blank screen in Wixie will likely meet the overall goals of the Knowledge Constructor and Creative Communicator standards. Wixie also includes templates that can help you support more specific ISTE standards connected to digital citizenship, computational thinking, and the design process.

Use these ideas and resources to meet standards in each of the 7 ISTE Standards for Students domains with Wixie.
