South Garland High School presented data from their School Technology and Readiness (STaR) Chart surveys over three years. The STaR Chart measures four areas of technology integration based on a scoring rubric and helps schools identify strengths and weaknesses to guide technology planning. The presentation reviewed the STaR Chart measures, South Garland High School's scores in each area from 2006-2009, and posed questions on how to address weaknesses and build upon strengths to improve classroom technology use.
