"In their capacity as a tool, computers will be but a ripple on the surface of our culture. In their capacity as intellectual challenge, they are without precedent in the cultural history of mankind. "

The Standards


Let's examine the
TL8 (Technology Literacy by Grade 8) Standards to help you identify the skills that the State of Maryland has deemed fundamental to being technologically literate. A companion document to the student standards is Computer Literacy Skills. We will begin with a video produced by MSDE on Tech Literacy by Grade 8

Here's a quick look at the Technology Standards for School Administrators and the Technology Standards for Teachers.

Let's use the Treasure the Technology document to investigate the components of the TL8 Standards. Use your TL8 Standards and the companion
Computer Literacy Skills document to answer the questions on Treasure the Technology.
