Brief Overview

• The Texas Campus STaR Chart produces a profile of our campus’ status toward reaching the goals of the Long Range Plan for Technology (LRPT) and No Child Left Behind. The profile indicators place our campus at one of four levels of progress in each key area of the LRPT: Early Tech, Developing Tech, Advanced Tech, or Target Tech.

Conclusion

• Based upon the way individual teachers describe their campus in the Key areas results in a final assessment of the school’s technology standings according to the STaR Chart. The Early, Developing, Advanced, and Target Key Area STaR Classifications will allow district technology staff, administrators, and teachers to see what areas of technology the school lacks in professionally as a staff and content based related to teaching the content to students. “The online assessment may be used as a basis for dialogue with staff, administrators, technology directors, school board members and community leaders to plan for future growth. Statewide reports are used to report on progress toward fulfilling the requirements in No Child Left Behind, Title II, Part D that all teachers should be technology literate and integrate technology across the curriculum.” (Texas Campus STaR Chart).
