Progress Report on the Long-Range Plan for Technology
In an overview of the progress report from the Texas Education Agency we can learn that students need the technology in today’s society not only to be successful for the future but to become engaged in the classroom. Students need the technology to be interactive in the classroom and to have a true learning experience. Our students come from a society where everything is quick and technology based. Often times there is not a student who does not know how to use a form of technology. The overall progress of the reports showed that through the teaching and learning process we are showing a vast improvement. We have well advanced from an early tech classroom when the teacher used very minimal technology in the classroom. The reports indicate that we have advanced and are showing higher results in advanced tech classrooms. This is good news because we can see that we are growing and building technology in our schools. We still show to be far from hitting that target area but it is hopeful especially if we can se progress from the earlier stages to growing in other areas. The overall purpose of the program is to ensure that students and educators gain and apply digital knowledge and skill across the curriculum. In reviewing this report I am glad to see that Texas is advancing and understanding the importance of applying this knowledge to our students and educators. The overall state plan will help our schools to become better prepared and to give our students the opportunity to be successful in the classroom and have true learning that accommodates them.
