Master 34 Educational Technology Specialist interview questions covering implementation, training, and system integration.

WRITTEN BY RYAN BRUNNER
QUESTION 25 OF 34

What does USB stand for, and what are some common USB components?

This question has two parts. It first asks for a definition, followed by examples of the concept. This is another question where your interviewer is looking to hear that you have the technological knowledge to succeed as their next Educational Technology Specialist. Because staff and students use USBs so often, your interviewer will look to hear that you have a strong understanding of the interface and how their staff uses it.

"USB stands for Universal Serial Bus. The current USB version is 3.0. Some common USB components include memory sticks, external disk drives, audio peripherals, and any device you need to connect to the computer externally. In schools, I often have to educate students on how to use their USB ports with devices like tablets, speakers, headsets, and gamepads."
