 * From NE Department of Education website (http://www.nde.state.ne.us/techcen/TechnologyLiteracy.html)

Technology Literacy The [|Technology Literacy Assessment Work Group] of the State Educational Technology Directors Association (SETDA) has suggested this definition: Technology literacy is the ability to responsibly use appropriate technology to communicate, solve problems, and access, manage, integrate, evaluate, and create information to improve learning in all subject areas and to acquire lifelong knowledge and skills in the 21st century. Local Districts may utilize this suggestion or modify it as appropriate for their own use.
