Our proposal for student technology standards follows on the next page. We have placed the corresponding proposed BHE standard below each of our standards. Standards within each category are to be mastered by students. These categories provide a framework for linking performance indicators to the standards. Faculty can use these standards and profiles as guidelines for planning technology-based activities in which students achieve success in learning, communication, and life skills.
Students demonstrate a certain understanding of the operation of technology systems.
Students are proficient in the use of technology. Students will be able to conduct basic computer operations. Students understand the ethical, cultural, and societal issues related to technology. Students practice responsible use of technology systems, information, and software. Students develop positive attitudes toward technology uses that support lifelong learning, collaboration, personal pursuits, and productivity.
