Tech standards
on the way
New K-12 educational technology standards have been drafted and
are expected to go before the South Dakota Board of Education in
July. A group of 40 educators worked to develop the standards to
help determine students’ technology proficiency.
The proposed standards are designed to be integrated into the
instruction of other content areas, not as stand-alone items.
The standards focus on a technological way of thinking, rather
than simply the use of computers. Under No Child Left Behind,
students are required to be technology literate by the end of
8th grade.
