The Ministry of Education has completed the revision of the achievement standards listed above.
Date new versions published December 2013
Planned review date December 2016
Summary
The Technology achievement standards required updating to remove or replace broken hyperlinks, remove Explanatory Note text that related to teaching and learning, to roll over the Level 1 and 2 standards to a new review date of 2016, and to correct minor formatting and grammatical errors.
Main changes

Broken hyperlinks have been replaced. Where hyperlinks were included in Explanatory
Notes relating to teaching and learning the entire section has been removed.

Text within Explanatory Notes relating to teaching and learning has been removed.

Level 1 and 2 standards have been rolled over to new review date of 2016.

The publication date of the Teaching and Learning Guide has been removed
– reference is now made to the ‘current’ version.

Minor editorial changes have been made.
