When it comes to helping my students meet the technology standards outlines in the NETS-S, I think it would be great to use the GAME plan. Take, for example, NETS-S standard 1b, “Students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and processes using technology. Students: create original works as a means of personal or group expression.”
To accomplish this standard with my students, I will first set a goal. The goal could be to have the students develop a digital story that demonstrates the qualities outlined in the standard. My action would be to teach the students how to create a digital story by modeling an example, and handing out directions. I could then let them play with the program and monitor them while they do so. To evaluate the assignment, I will look at their final product. The GAME plan works well for each of the standards, and will help the students become proficient.

Marcella, I think you are on the right track to help your students set goals for themselves. Modeling will provide them with the right skills they need to acieve these goals.
