I am interested in technological standards and not in personal ICT or digital literacy standards of students and teachers. W3C surely has published some.
Which standards do you adopt when developing technology for education?
W3C has put many standards to provide the community a productive environment for creating Web standards. The values of WC3 standards are that they are created following a consensus-based decision process. They consider aspects of accessibility, privacy, security, and internationalization. At the same time, these standards balance speed, fairness, and public accountability.
Michael:
I use what is available in text books such as Roblyer's Technology Integration Plan model and quality rubrics for blended and online learning. But the latter are not mandated by the University, which has its own blended learning policy that set the standard for technology integration into teaching and learning.
Best regards,
Debra

The world of standards changes quickly, although ironically producing them can take a long time. If you are interested in this space then there's lots to consider & very different kinds of players.
The most formally constituted organization globally is ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC36 (IT for Learning, Education, & Training). Membership involves national bodies.
see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_JTC_1/SC_36
Then there is IEEE LTSC, a sub-committee of the IEEE.
see: http://sites.ieee.org/sagroups-ltsc/home/
Then there are industry consortia like IMS Global Learning Consortium -- strictly speaking they are in the pre-standardization space producing specifications. They have been doing some very useful & p;ractical work for nearly 2 decades. It costs to participate See: https://www.imsglobal.org/
Advanced Distributed Learning in the US have also been doing lots of work in the pre-standardization space -- they produced SCORM & currently working on xAPI & LTA -- see: https://www.adlnet.gov/
... lots of others.
From my experience for more than 13 years in the Edutech domain , the Edutech standards is always falling behind the advancement in the pedagogical theories and practices . for example SCORM and QTI which were the De-Facto standards of LMS and Electronic Assessments is no longer something that educationalists are keen to have in their solution especially after the evolution of the social and unstructured learning .
