“To be ready for college,
workforce training, and
life in a technological
society, students need
the ability to conduct
original research in order
to answer questions or
solve problems, and to
analyze and create a high
volume and extensive
range of print and non-
print texts in media
forms old and new.”

4. "Students who are
college and career
ready employ
technology
thoughtfully to
enhance their reading,
writing, speaking,
listening, and language
use. They are familiar
with the strengths and
limitations of various
technological tools
and mediums and can
select and use those
best suited to their
communication goals.” http://www.sde.com/technology/core.asp
