WASHINGTON, DC – Today, the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE), a nonprofit organization focused on accelerating innovation in education, announced the redesign of the ISTE Seal. With this redesign, the ISTE Seal examines solutions not only against ISTE Standards, but also assesses technical and pedagogical usability to ensure products and platforms are educator-ready while incorporating research that reflects advances in the sciences. of learning. The redesigned Seal allows for a broader range of edtech product assessments to include assessment tools, curriculum, learning platforms, and professional development solutions.

“The Seal will help distinguish products that are effective for learning as usable for educators,” said Richard Culatta, executive director of ISTE. “We are excited to continue our work to help improve the quality and impact of educational products for students around the world.” 

“Being assessed by the Seal is an intrinsically valuable process. As an edtech product, we constantly iterate and improve based on our research and customer feedback,” said Gina Ricker, director of K-12 research at EVERFI. “The Seal provides another clear and trusted way to calibrate our priorities for improvement to ensure we keep pace and maintain our high quality to better support educators and students with our products in the digital age.”

Commenting positively on the certification process, Andreas Tsouchlaris, Binary Logic's vice president of research and development, stated, "Participating in the new ISTE Seal certification process was a transformative learning experience, pushing us to critically assess and strengthen the educational value of our curricular proposal. I highly recommend that other curriculum providers participate in this process as it provides valuable feedback and opportunities to improve their offerings.”

ISTE aims to have companies that produce edtech platforms, technology-based K-12 curriculum solutions, assessment tools, and professional development solutions apply for the Seal. The ISTE Seal is recognized by a wide range of roles in K-12, from K-12 CAOs and other district leaders, along with school leaders and technology coaches who rely on the Seal as evidence-backed verification of product design. high quality.
