The document discusses the Texas STaR Chart, a teacher tool for planning and self-assessing technology use. It provides information on the four key areas of the STaR Chart - Teaching and Learning, Educator Preparation and Development, Administration & Support, and Infrastructure and Technology. For the presenter's school, all four areas have been at the Advanced Technology level for the past three years according to the STaR Chart. This indicates the staff is very aware of technology and how to use it, which provides support for teachers who are less technologically proficient.

12. The STaR Chart shows that my campus has a staff that is very aware of technology and how to use it. This is an awesome strength to have because we have support for the few teachers who are technologically challenged. I feel the assessment is very accurate with what I see and have experienced here at my school.
