The STaR Chart is a tool used by Texas school districts to measure the progress of technology use in classrooms, requiring teachers to facilitate technology, complete surveys, and continue their own technology education. It evaluates teaching, leadership, infrastructure, and preparation using technology, finding East Chambers ISD to be advanced in these areas. The document stresses that technology is crucial in today's world and careers, and that as educators we must embrace changing technology through workshops, collaboration, and accountability like the STaR Chart to ensure students have needed skills.
