SETDA SETDA - States Helping States NATIONAL EDUCATION TECHNOLOGY PLAN
Key Questions
Why should a national education technology plan be developed and how will a national plan help state education leaders?
Under the new requirements of No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB), the U.S. Secretary of Education is to develop a long-range national plan for educational technology to promote and enable measurement of the extent to which the Nation's schools are effectively using technology. Achieving a new national vision of the potential of technology for improving and transforming education in this country will depend heavily on state leadership and on the capacity of state education agencies to successfully implement its goals.
