OSPI-Developed Educational Technology Assessments

Teachers will use these assessments to determine student progress toward Washington's standards for educational technology. Designed for the elementary, middle, and high school grades, these assessments integrate science, math, health, English Language Arts, social studies, and the arts. K–2  teachers can take advantage of a simplified checklist. Classroom activities are well-guided, easy to use, and equipped with a comprehensive inventory of free and low-cost digital resources.

2025–26 EdTech Reporting Instruction and Assessment Verification

The reporting requirement (RCW 28A.655.075 and RCW 28A.230.095) for educational technology classroom-based assessments administered in the elementary, middle, and high school grades is no longer a separate survey out to districts. To meet the legislative requirement, district reporting on these assessments is now included in the annual OSPI Educational Technology Survey that is sent to district designated Technology Directors. We encourage Technology Directors to discuss these educational technology classroom-based assessment questions with Teaching and Learning staff before submitting responses. Please note: The OSPI 2025–26 Educational Technology Survey is expected to launch in Spring 2026 and is not yet available. 

Collect & Report Data

1. Collect responses for each of the four questions and share the responses with your district’s designated Technology Director.
2. Confirmation of submission will be sent to your district’s designated Technology Director.
