NETS FOR STUDENTS: NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY STANDARDS

Beginning with the Class of 2015, all students must demonstrate proficiency in the six NETS graduation requirements.
The first four standards are integrated into the curriculum throughout the classes at Yosemite High School. The fifth and sixth standards are tested (and retested as needed) to help ensure each student meets all six graduation standard requirements.

Visit the ISTE (International Society for Technology in Education) website for more information about the NETS.

Standard 1: Creativity and Innovation
Students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and develop innovative products and processes using technology.

 

Standard 2: Communication and Collaboration

Standard 3: Research and Information Fluency
