Conclusion

Don’t forget that the purpose of the STaR Chart is to help teachers (you) and our campus determine the progress toward meeting the goals of the Long-Range Plan for Technology.The survey you take every year should remind you of what the expectations for Technology and Instruction are for Texas teachers. Be honest when taking the survey because the results will be used to help the district/campus plan for future staff development/integration of technology in their curricular area.Keep up the great work!!!
