The document summarizes the Texas STaR Chart, a tool provided by the state of Texas to help campuses determine goals and progress towards the Texas Long Range Technology Plan. The STaR Chart measures four key domains: teaching and learning, educator preparation, administration and support, and infrastructure. It provides levels of progression from early to target technology use. The document then analyzes one campus's progress in each domain over three years and identifies areas for improvement to reach the state's technology goals.
