What did the STaR Chart show as your campus’ greatest strength? Do you agree with
the results? Explain.
Our greatest strength is Leadership, Administration, and Instructional Support. I
do think our administration and leadership is very technology oriented. There is a
huge push for upgrading technology in my district. I think this is wonderful and it
will only get better by teaching more people and administrators to be supportive of
technology and it’s place in the curriculum.

What did the STaR Chart show as your campus’ greatest weakness? Do you agree with
the results? Explain.
Our greatest weakness is Educator Preparation and Development. I also agree
with this being our weakest area. I think too many of our teachers need
professional development opportunities to perform basic technology skills. There
needs to be a standard set and all faculty members must be able to perform these
tasks. I still have to help teachers send emails with attachments and other basic
skills that are needed every day in the classroom. This get a little ridiculous, not
because they do not know how, but because they are not given the chance to
learn how.
In an online learning community interaction, which STaR Chart area would you choose
to introduce to the other members? What data supports your choice?
I would present Teaching and Learning, because I am pretty well versed on
different pieces of technology, but I am not a huge tech guru. Because I am not
really tech savy, I feel like I can teach people not only how to use the different
technology, but how to use it in their classroom and integrate the technology into
their lessons.
