The State Educational Technology Directors Association (SETDA) released the 2009 Trends Report, Focus on Technology Integration in America’s Schools, on April 2. This report identifies programs that effectively integrate technology to create robust subject-matter content, innovative curricula, ongoing professional development, and diagnostic assessments to facilitate individualized instruction and highlights the federal Enhancing Education Through Technology (EETT) grant program and focuses on how states are using those funds to increase student achievement.

Many of the gains shown in the report directly address the goals of President Obama and the U.S. Department of Education under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), Title I, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), and Teacher Quality Enhancement grants.
