NEW HAMPSHIRE INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION
LITERACY STANDARDS
Part of the Minimum Standards for School Approval (Ed 306.42)
New Hampshire Minimum Standards for School Approval include a section for information
and communication technologies (ICT) literacy (Ed 306.42). They became effective on
July 1, 2005.
Ed 306.42 requires all K-8 students to develop a digital portfolio which is assessed for ICT
literacy by the end of 8th grade.
Ed 306.42 requires students to complete at least 1/2 credit of computer technology literacy
prior to high school graduation.
These standards are were revised and updated to better reflect current understanding of
21st century literacies.

NEW HAMPSHIRE INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION
LITERACY STANDARDS
ALIGNMENT OF STANDARDS
THE NH DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION RELEASED TECHNICAL ADVISORY #2
INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES (ICT) TO PROVIDE
GUIDANCE AND ANSWERS TO FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.
GLE READING & LITERACY SKILLS ALIGNMENT - IN JULY 2006 A TASK FORCE
OF LIBRARY MEDIA SPECIALISTS REVIEWED THREE SEPARATE DOCUMENTS:
GRADE LEVEL EXPECTATIONS FOR READING K-8, INFORMATION LITERACY
STANDARDS FROM AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL LIBRARIANS, AND
THE NH ICT LITERACY STANDARDS AND CAME UP WITH AN ALIGNMENT OF ALL
THREE.

ICT LITERACY AND
THE NH COLLEGE & CAREER READY STANDARDS
English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social
Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects
Media and Technology Just as media and technology are integrated in school and life in the twenty-first century, skills
related to media use (both critical analysis and production of media) are integrated throughout
the standards.
They use technology and digital media strategically and capably. Students employ technology thoughtfully to enhance their reading, writing, speaking, listening,
and language use. They tailor their searches online to acquire useful information efficiently, and
they integrate what they learn using technology with what they learn offline. They are familiar
with the strengths and limitations of various technological tools and mediums and can select
and use those best suited to their communication goals.
NOT JUST ABOUT USING COMPUTERS FOR RESEARCH

ICT LITERACY AND ASSESSMENT
Teaching with Technology and Testing with Technology
The Common Core State Standards, and the NH ICT Literacy Standards both
require integrating technology use into teaching and learning.
The Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium will require students are
assessed using technology. Online assessments begin 2015!
I C T L I T E R A C Y S T A N D A R D S 17
TECHNOLOGY READINESS
Both Consortia wanted a Technology Readiness
Tool that would be able to assess current capacity
and compare that to the technology guidelines that
will be needed to administer the 2015 online
assessments. Data would be evaluated in 4 areas:
1. Computers & other devices
2. Ratio of devices to test-takers
3. Network and infrastructure
4. Personnel (staffing & training)
Pearson developed the Technology Readiness
Tool

THE GOOD NEWS
At least half of our districts are using the tech readiness tool to get ready.
The technology required to test online is not terribly advanced, hard to come
by, or complicated.
Our districts have had technology support through Title IID of ESEA for the
past decade.
Most schools will be able to meet the technology requirements to assess
their students online, but the 2015 deadline.
I C T L I T E R A C Y S T A N D A R D S 26
THE BAD NEWS
At least half of our districts are not using the tech readiness tool to get ready.
While the technology required to test online is not terribly advanced, hard to
come by, or complicated, many districts fail to recognize the importance of
making technology use a requirement of all staff and students. We still have
recognized “tech teachers” and accept teachers who identify themselves as
“not a techy” or “don’t use technology”.
As education leaders, we often fail to recognize the importance of technology,
emphasize, or model technology integration when we deliver, promote, or
approve professional development opportunities or teacher training.
Our students are learning technology “on their own”, because it engages them
and they want to use it, but they are not learning good digital citizenship or
responsible use at the same time.
I C T L I T E R A C Y S T A N D A R D S 27
THE TAKE AWAY
What do we do now? Model and Expect Proficiency in the ISTE NETS-T
• We need to take seriously our role as education leaders in New Hampshire.
• We can’t just host “professional development” that talks about content or pedagogy
without integrating the use of technology or ICT Literacy skills into the experience, we
have to model the use of tech literacy skills and abilities in our actions and teaching for
the field.
• We have to insist that professional development we deliver, authorize, promote, and
approve, integrates technology and models its effective use.
• Engages socially through peer interactions both online and offline
• Stresses metacognitive processes enriched by technology
• Extends learning beyond the “workshop” or “webinar” or “seminar” through
continued online interactions with content and resources
• Requires a project based / demonstration product to assess learning
• Seamlessly integrates online tools and resources to enhance learning
• We have to insist that our professional development providers follow this collaborative
and metacognitive model as well.
I C T L I T E R A C Y S T A N D A R D S 28
THE TAKE AWAY
The Bottom Line
We cannot effectively use technology and
online tools for engaging assessments
unless we effectively teach kids using those
same technologies and online tools to
support and engage them in their learning.
