The Making of Georgia Standards

Since technological issues and problems have more than one available solution, decision making should reflect the values of the people and help them reach their goals.

Such decision making depends upon all citizens acquiring a basic level of technological literacy - the ability to use, manage, and understand technology.

The Standards for Technology Education: Content for the Study of Technology (Content Standards) provides a coherent vision for what it means to be technologically literate.

The Content Standards represent a national consensus and will be a catalyst for change, bringing technological studies to the forefront of the educational reform movement.
