- The design, planning, and implementation of technology standards in educational curriculum is what makes these standards effective. Through this planning, evaluation, data, and research schools can set and achieve technology goals. Schools can then ensure that proper technology funding sources are available and apply for new sources. Annual reviews of these standards will allow a revolving planning process and ensure that technology is being used in curriculum effectively. Having a plan and use of the technology standards will create a continuous and aligned goal that demonstrates its effectiveness in classroom education. Though helpful in creating and justifying standards through some examples this article reads as a manual with only a few listed resources.

- Technology in schools requires extensive funding and initial investment. Therefore, schools are accountable and must verify that technology in education is worth this investment. Using data to prove the justification of technology in education, displaying factors that support technology's effective use in school, providing resources districts use to help them plan for technology will have a positive impact on student achievement and justify the investment. Supplying data driven research, schools can show the world that technology is beneficial in schools. Many different types of technology, multiple ways for students to demonstrate their learning, and providing multiple entry points for students to motivate and engage students, can be used to achieve this goal. There may be expectations that technology will solve all the school's problems with student learning and achievement. To be justified, technology must be used to promote new learning goals and teaching strategies that are student-centered, self-directed, and demonstrate increased thinking skills.Through extensive, ongoing research, illustrated case examples, and a long list of contacts, the authors prove their understanding and experience of this issue.
