Tech Standards

The following technology standards are computer skills we expect Bedford Students to know and be able to do by the end of each grade level. These skills were identified and developed using recommended standards established by the Massachusetts Department of Education, but were modified for use by grade levels. Classroom teachers, assisted by Instructional Technology Specialists at each building, will introduce skill areas within a context of completing regular curriculum and learning projects. Exceptions to this practice is the introduction and mastery of keyboarding skills which will initially be introduced and practiced as a stand alone activity. The listed skill areas were approved by the Bedford Public Schools Administrative Council during the summer of 2004.
