Relative to education technology.

This measure would provide that the Legislature considers education technology to be of the highest priority and supports providing all California educators and students with state of the art technology resources, connectivity, and related support needed to enable the use of technology to expand and optimize instruction and learning opportunities for all students. The measure would provide that the Legislature convene a state level summit conference, representing teachers, school administrators, county offices of education, professional education associations, and the California Emerging Technology Fund, to address improvements in education technology and related topics to establish possible new legislative and funding priorities. The measure would also urge the Legislature and the Governor to take into consideration prior and current educational technology initiatives, programs, and plans to help inform any new legislation and budget changes related to education technology.
