  5. The GaDOE, in response to requests from local schools and LEAs, has developed an OPTIONAL 8th grade Technology Literacy assessment. This assessment is one more choice for schools to consider when addressing the NCLB requirement to report 8th grade tech literacy. The Georgia Virtual School and the Office of Technology Services, Title II-D, for the GaDOE have collaborated to create three 60 question assessments addressing the technology standard requirements.

  6. The portion of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act known as 'Enhancing Education Through Technology Act of 2001' (E2T2) has a goal: To assist every student in crossing the digital divide by ensuring that every student is technologically literate by the time the student finishes the eighth grade, regardless of the student's race, ethnicity, gender, family income, geographic location, or disability.
