Which Standard addresses Support, Management, and Operations: The integration of technology to support productive systems?

• A. Learning and Teaching
• B. Productivity and Professional Practice
• C. Support, Management, and Operations
• D. Assessment and Evaluation

Answer: (C)

Think about the part of a technology framework that handles the systems that run and support tech in a school. This standard focuses on the technical backbone—how technology resources are planned, acquired, deployed, managed, maintained, secured, and supported—so that productive systems are reliable and available for teaching, learning, and daily operations. That emphasis on support, management, and operations and on integrating technology to keep the overall system working makes it the best fit. Other areas center on how technology is used for instruction, on professional practice and collaboration, or on assessing and evaluating outcomes, rather than on the underlying infrastructure and ongoing management that keep technology functioning.
