The STaR Plan is Texas' long range technology plan focused on transforming learning and teaching, assessments, educator preparation and development, leadership and infrastructure. It recommends that teachers incorporate technology into the curriculum, receive 40 hours of annual technology training, and evolve into facilitators for 21st century students. All classrooms should be connected to local and wide area networks for online resources like streaming, videoconferencing and assessment. The plan is meant to be continually revised to encourage continuous innovation with technology leading to increased student achievement.
