Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume describes state-level educational technology policies, focusing on the implementation of state-level Enhancing Education Through Technology (EETT) programs in the first years of operation. The report draws on survey data from both state educational technology directors and district-based educational technology coordinators that were collected by the National Educational Technology Trends Study (NETTS). This report discusses the role of the EETT program, the state priorities and programs that EETT supports, and the relationship between state educational technology program activities and the overarching goals and purposes of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. Chapter 1 of this report describes state educational technology policies and related programs, including the role of the EETT program in state efforts. Chapter 2 presents individual state profiles that present data summarized in Chapter 1. These data describe the EETT program in its first and second years of operation. It should be recognized that some states were still completing their educational technology plans and getting their EETT implementation procedures in place during this time. In addition, these data and other NETTS data sources do not address the relationships between educational technology use and student academic achievement. Evaluation of the impact of educational technology on academic achievement is beyond the scope of this study. The report methodology is appended. (Contains 32 exhibits.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this report is to provide descriptive information about educational technology practices related to the core objectives of the U.S. Department of Education's Enhancing Education Through Technology (EETT) program. The EETT program is part of the "No Child Left Behind Act of 2001" ("NCLB") and, like other elements of "NCLB," targets "high-need school districts." The authorizing legislation specifically states three goals for the program: (a) to improve student academic achievement through the use of educational technology, (b) to ensure that every student is technologically literate by the eighth grade, and (c) to encourage the effective integration of technology in teacher training and curriculum development to establish research-based instructional methods that can be widely implemented as best practices. From the program's inception in FY 2002 through FY 2008, approximately $3.4 billion was allocated to EETT. In FY 2008, the program was funded at approximately $267 million. This report is structured around the EETT program objectives and specific performance measures developed by the U.S. Department of Education to meet the requirements of the "Government Performance and Results Act" ("GPRA") of 1993, which are aligned with, but not identical to, the goals stated in the legislation. "GPRA" requirements address each of the following EETT program priorities: teachers' and students' access to technology, technology-related professional development, technology integration, and student technology literacy. This report's key findings are organized by "GPRA" measures for the EETT program (see Exhibit ES-1). Overall, states and districts are showing some progress in developing the infrastructure necessary to support student and teacher capacity to use technology in robust ways. Computers and Internet connections are increasingly in place within classrooms, suggesting the suitability of a renewed focus on high-quality teacher professional development, how technology is used in instruction and learning, and the skills that teachers and students gain as a result. Appended are: (1) ETT Program Administration; and (2) Data Sources and Methodology. (Contains 28 exhibits and 31 footnotes.).
