Standards for Technological Literacy: Content for the Study of Technology, commonly called STL articulates a complete set of technological literacy standards and identify a vision for developing a technologically literate citizenry. STL identifies content necessary for K-12 students, including knowledge, abilities, and the capacity to apply both to the real world. The standards in STL were built around a cognitive base as well as a doing/activity base. They include assessment checkpoints at specific grade levels (K-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12). STL articulates what needs to be taught in K-12 laboratory-classrooms to enable all students to develop technological literacy. The goal is to meet all of the standards through the benchmarks which are included in STL. Standards are written statements about what is valued that can be used for making a judgment of quality.
