“Profiling Educational Technology Integration (PETI): Resources for Assessing Readiness & Use,” is available online from the State Educational Technology Directors Association (SETDA).

A new online guidebook has been designed to help state and local officials assess the quality of technology integration in their schools.

Developed by the Arlington, Va.-based State Educational Technology Directors Association, the guide offers a framework for assessing educational technology, and an “NCLB Matrix” to link questions and indicators to the technological goals of the federal No Child Left Behind Act.
