This bill mandates that the Board of Education provide technical assistance to local school boards on professional development in education technology designed to seek to ensure that all instructional personnel are proficient in the use of educational technology; that all local school boards provide a program of professional development in educational technology for all instructional personnel; that the governing bodies of the public institutions of higher education establish programs to ensure that all graduates have the technological skills necessary to compete in the 21st century and, particularly, that all students matriculating in teacher-training programs receive instruction in the effective use of educational technology; and that the State Council of Higher Education, in consultation with the Virginia Department of Education and the accredited teacher education programs of the Commonwealth's institutions of higher education, develop guidelines to ensure that all students matriculating in teach-training programs meet the standards embodied in Virginia's Technology Standards for Instructional Personnel and have the requisite skills for the implementation of the Board of Education's Six-Year Educational Technology Plan for Virginia. The State Council of Higher Education is also directed to consult with the Board of Education on its Six-Year Educational Technology Plan for Virginia and to encourage the public institutions of higher education to design programs to include the skills necessary for the successful implementation of the Plan. This bill is a recommendation of the Commission on Educational Infrastructure.
