National Education Technology Standards

As we shift from a technology curriculum that emphasizes skills that are now learned and practiced at an earlier age and grade level, we will be moving toward a philosophy that supports the National Education Technology Standards (NETS) for Students that encourages schools to work toward integrating technology throughout the curriculum, while achieving student proficiency in the following areas:

1. Creativity and Innovation
2. Communication and Collaboration
3. Research and Information Fluency
4. Critical Thinking, Problem Solving, and Decision Making,
5. Digital Citizenship
6. Technology Operations and Concepts
