Tucson Unified School District technology plan
• Uses the state standards• Technology use set up on an individual school level.• Some schools have separate technology classes that only
focus on the uses of technology.• Other schools integrate the technology into the
curriculum.• These ideas come from my own observances of working
in the district and talking to teachers throughout the district as well as talking to technology specialists in the district.
