3. What is the Texas STaR Chart?
The Texas STAR Chart was developed by the Texas
Education Agency Educational Technology Advisory
Committee , as an online resource tool for self-assessment
of your campus’ and district’s efforts to integrate technology
across the curriculum.
It is aligned with the Texas Long Range Plan for Technology,
2006-2020.
Its rubric serves as the standard for assessing technology
preparedness in Texas K-12 schools.

use in technology planning, budgeting for resources,
and evaluation of progress in local technology
projects.

and as a formative and/or summative evaluation tool.

Campus STaR chart?

one of four levels of progress in each key areas of the
LRPT:
