that utilize technology effectively. The following six categories encourage strong leadership in
the area of information technology:
•
Leadership and vision

B.1.3 Literacy, math, and science standards
Since the late 1980s, states and school districts across the United States have begun to raise
standards in core subjects. Academic standards are now used to clearly identify what students
should learn and what teachers should teach. State and local standards keep the education
system accountable for student achievement.
As state standards have gained momentum, educators have reached an agreement about the
meaning of two significant concepts, academic content standards and performance standards,
which were later published in the Goals 2000 Act.
Educational standards are important in all countries. The Academy program can be tailored by
region, by country, and by curriculum to achieve alignment with international educational
standards.
