Welcome to the Dallas Independent School District Instructional Technology Department home page! Our goal is to enhance classroom instruction, increase student achievement, and promote college readiness as we build teachers', staff, and students' technology skills through the support and communication of the Technology Application TEKS. Our goal is to make an impact on student achievement in a positive manner by empowering the the educational community to be effective, quality users of current and evolving technologies and to employ those technologies to create innovative learning environments. We know that teachers who are skilled users of technology are better at preparing their students to be self-directed explorers and communicators in a society where change is the only constant.

This is accomplished in the following three ways by providing

1. hardware and software for instructional use in appropriate Technology Applications TEKS curriculum-supported computer labs at all grade levels;
2. hardware and software for teachers to use in their classroom. This hardware/software is typically received after completing training in designated initiatives; and
3. professional development opportunities for teachers on how to develop technology-rich learning tasks at their grade level or in the subject that they teach.

The Student Learning Standards for Technology Applications (all grade levels) can now be found on this site.
