Abstract

This paper focuses on the importance of technology integration along with CCSS for student's success for building 21st century skills. The literature supports the high need to use technology but warns that there needs to be support for teachers, such that it is productive and meaningful professional development. The project created supports the claim in the form of a website that provides a readily available professional development. Created for math teachers, users will have access to technology implementation ideas, web 2.0 tools, content standards, CCSS lessons and performance tasks. The Teach NHS Math website will be for teachers to share and ask questions regarding the above components. Answering a feedback form will connect users to a crowd sourced document that will share positive and beneficial links to resources that different individual teachers had success.
