No requirement to report tech literacy in 2011-12

The South Dakota Department of Education recently learned that the U.S. Department of Education will not require states to report 8th grade technology literacy for the 2011-12 school year. What this means is that your district does not need to administer to your 8th graders some type of technology assessment and report these results to the South Dakota Department of Education.

Questions can be directed to Gay Pickner, SD Department of Education Assessment Director, at (605) 773-3247.
