Technology Standards for Administrators
by TSSA Collaborative
The Collaborative for Technology Standards for School Administrators (TSSA Collaborative) led the initiative to develop and document a national consensus on what PK-12 administrators should know about and be able to do to optimize benefits of technology use in schools. The Web site contains a complete PDF document available for download with the standards, performance indicators, and role-specific leadership tasks appropriate for three categories of leaders: system or districtwide administrators, building-level administrators, and administrators with specific content discipline or specific program responsibilities.
