The end is fire itself. A bicycle is a means of transportation. Consequently, when we talk about the use of technology, we must always remember that it is a means, not an end in itself. Technology in the broadest sense is the application of modern communications and computing technologies to the creation, management and use of knowledge. In an educational setting, information technology should provide students with a variety of enriching ideas and experiences that foster intellectual curiosity, achievement, and a pattern of life-long learning.
Students use the Internet easily and for multiple purposes.
The goals and expectations for student learning in technology are clearly communicated to students, parents, and the community through a variety of media. Technology resources are used to expand the means of delivering professional development programs. All students, staff, administrators and faculty have fair and equitable access to hardware, software and other information technology resources. Through the effective use of technology, time becomes a resource for supporting student learning and enhancing the productivity of the school, rather than a constraint limiting students' opportunity to learn. The school's technology plan is adequately financed.
