“Proficiency with technology allows students to succeed in college and careers. The Common Core Standards include basic technology skills to help them succeed; but in the bigger picture, they call for students to use technology to help them learn in all areas.” “ Whether it be using tools to solve math problems, to access information, or to promote literacy and communication skills, technology is part of the learning solution . It needs to be viewed that way rather than a separate competency.” -James Brock
