Three Goals for Educational Technology Addressed by NCLB:
Use technology to improve the academic achievement of students in elementary and secondary schools.
Ensure that every student—regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, family income, geographic location, or disability—is technologically literate by the end of the eighth grade.
Encourage the effective integration of technology with teacher training and curriculum development to establish
widely implemented, research-based best practices.

• LEAs may waive the required Computer Applications course for students if competencies outlined in the course are demonstrated to qualified staff.
• If LEAs choose to waive the Computer Applications course, the LEAs should design and implement effective tools for assessing students proficiency.
• A comprehensive portfolio of digital works may provide a meaningful assessment of these competencies.
• The demands of technology suggest that LEAs offer higher-level technology courses for students demonstrating competencies outlined in the Computer Applications course.

• Twenty-first century skills are not adequately measured using twentieth-century assessments such as paper and pencil.
• Technology skills are inherently performance skills and must be evaluated through project- or problem-based assessments (digital portfolio format).
• Students need not just demonstrate technology fluency through performance to meet high school graduation requirements, but also learn how to apply knowledge and skills to problem solving. (Prepared for tomorrow’s workforce)
