Free Content Test with Table built in Site Admin

This seems to work too. Do the borders display? I think they purposely do not.

Can only have one Learn About section but you can name it anything you want and it doesn't have to be first in order. This is a test of adding a table with graphics that have links.

 

Option 1: Paste in from Google Docs. Borders are not replicated, and can't move the graphics.

If box for Activate Events is checked, the Events tab will only display if something is in the Events Schedule field, like this.

If you forget to fill in the title, you will get an error. But the title doesn't display so it can be anything.

MITECS Test (combine three sections into 1)

At GoOpen Michigan > MITECs Hub > Section called Learn more about the MITECS at https://goopenmichigan.org/hubs/mitecs#learn-more-about-the-mitecs is made in Site Admin from three separate sections. I wanted to see if it would work to put them all into one section and use styles for the headings. It works, but the heading styles are not good. Heading 2 is larger than the section title. I used Heading 4.

MITECS is the acronym for the Michigan Integrated Technology Competencies for Students. These competencies were released in December 2017 and replace the 2009 Michigan Educational Technology Standards for Students (METS-S). The MITECS focus on technology enhanced learning rather than on technology tools. The competencies are aligned with Michigan’s Top 10 in 10 focus area of Learner-Centered Supports by reflecting a learner-driven approach to empowering students. As learners progress through the age band articulation, they become active participants in determining and implementing their educational pursuits.  

The MITECS support learning in all content areas and allow for the integration of technology across content areas and grade levels. The focus for the competencies is on learning, harnessing the power of technology when appropriate. Technology is not seen as a standalone discipline, subject, or content area. Through the implementation of the MITECS, technology supports an integrated cross-curricular approach to learning. The competencies also support critical thinking, personalized learning, and deeper learning in all content areas. Additionally, the MITECS support rigor and depth in math and science.

 

History

In June 2017, stakeholders convened to revise the 2009 METS-S. This group considered several options including revising the existing standards, creating new standards, and adapting standards from other relevant sources. Ultimately, the stakeholders decided to adapt the 2016 International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) Standards for Students. The outcome of this adaptation was the development of the MITECS. Changing from standards to competencies was a key component of the MITECS adaptation. This modification allows for the move from a compliance driven model to one that supports transformational learning.

Cell color test

This is definitely what Max used to fetch the collections in the UNESCO table: {collection:587} Strangely, the background color does not appear in site admin on the UNESCO site, but it does in this hub's Site Admin. Mindy explained that the UNESCO table probably ended up using HTML, not CK Editor.
