BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — The state Department of Education says Louisiana earned high marks in two categories of education technology in a survey done by Education Week magazine.
The state was one of nine nationwide that received an “A” for its use of technology in the classroom.
That includes whether a state offers a virtual school and whether and to what degree technology is used in setting student standards, testing students on technology and offering computer-based assessments.
The state’s score in use of technology was 100, up from 90 last year.
Louisiana was one of 13 states that earned a “B” in its capacity to use technology.
That category includes the use of technology in teacher licensure rules and re-certification rules for both teachers and administrators.
