States across the nation are using the No Child Left Behind, Title II, Part D, Enhancing Education Through Technology (NCLB II D) program to close the achievement gap and reduce the digital divide.
Beginning in 2003, SETDA has released an annual trends report on the implementation of the NCLB IID program in states across the nation.
This site repurposes the source data from the trends report to produce reports for the 50 states and Washington DC.
NCLB Title II D GOALS:
(1) PRIMARY GOAL: The primary goal of this part is to improve student academic achievement
through the use of technology in elementary schools and secondary schools.
(2) ADDITIONAL GOALS: The additional goals of this part are the following:
(A) To assist every student in crossing the digital divide by ensuring that every student is
technologically literate by the time the student finishes the eighth grade, regardless of the
student’s race, ethnicity, gender, family income, geographic location, or disability.
(B) To encourage the effective integration of technology resources and systems with teacher
training and curriculum development to establish research-based instructional methods that can
be widely implemented as best practices by State educational agencies and local educational
agencies.
