Truitt middle school week 2
This document summarizes the findings of the STaR (School Technology and Readiness) Chart for Truitt Middle School from 2008 to 2011. The STaR Chart analyzes the school's technological progress and readiness in key areas like teaching and learning, educator preparation, leadership, and infrastructure. While Truitt scored highest in infrastructure for technology, the chart showed its greatest weakness was in educator preparation and development, as teachers did not take advantage of professional development opportunities to expand their technology skills. Additional resources for improving STaR Chart scores are also listed.

S ta rchart
Clark Primary School conducted a STaR Chart survey from 2007-2010 to assess its level of technology implementation across four key areas. The survey found that Infrastructure for Technology was the school's greatest strength, as it had a robust WiFi network and used email as its primary communication tool. Leadership, Administration, and Instructional Support was found to be the weakest area. One suggestion to improve was to hire a highly trained computer lab teacher to assist both teachers and students with technology issues without needing to wait for an external network specialist. The STaR Chart data on Clark Primary's implementation can be viewed online by searching the school on the ESC12 website.

Edle 5352 powerpoint star chart
The document summarizes a school district's self-assessment of technology integration using the Texas STaR Chart, which measures progress in four key areas aligned with the state's Long-Range Plan for Technology. For the past three years, the district scored in the "Developing" range for Teaching and Learning but "Advanced" in Leadership/Administration, Infrastructure, and sometimes Educator Development. While some areas improved briefly in 2009-10, overall progress has been slow, suggesting the need for increased technology training, resources, and support to help more effectively integrate technology across the curriculum.
S ta r chart data
The STaR Chart measures Texas schools' technology readiness and is used to determine state funding, budgets, and administrator compliance. It shows that Southside Middle School has improved its technology infrastructure score from 2007-2008 but needs to further develop its teaching and learning, preparation and development of teachers, and administrative support categories.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
