Instructional Tech Plan

 

     This scope and sequence of digital literacy skills for K-12 students and teachers in the San Jacinto Unified School District has been adapted from the Common Core State Standards K-12 Technology Scope and Sequence created by the Long Beach Unified School District. They in turn utilized the work done by the Fresno Office of Education in creating the Recommended Digital Literacy and Technology Skills to Support the California Common Core Standards. 

     The skills listed in this document focus on scaffolding digital literacy skills from turning on devices in the first days of school to the intensive skills needed by our 12th graders as they head off into college and careers. Digital literacy will impact every job in the future, and we believe in the importance of starting students young and building on the skills each year. Technology skills, digital citizenship, information literacy, and other skills are all incorporated under the digital literacy umbrella, and all are vital skills to be introduced early and reinforced often as students work towards mastery and higher level skill development.

 

    The skills contained herein include skills that will help students take the new online Smarter Balanced Assessment (SBAC) and reduce test anxiety through digital fluency. The skills also incorporate the NETS*S National Educational Technology Standards for Students that were adopted in 2007. Skills are focused on the English Language Arts Anchor Standards, the Mathematics Anchor Standards, and Mathematical Standards of Practice.

    This document provides a road-map for teachers and administrators to adapt curriculum to ensure that students are building digital literacy competency as well as technological skills for college and career readiness and online assessment. Furthermore, the digital literacy standards have been organized by grade level and can be accessed by selecting the links on this page.
