Teaching and Learning
“Our challenge in teaching and learning is to move from the traditional teacher-led learning model to a student-centered collaborative model in order to empower young citizens to succeed in a global and digital world of information.”
Educator Preparation and Development
“We must also prepare teachers far differently for significantly different roles, different students, different tools and resources, and different methods of instructing students beyond the face-to-face classroom.
Leadership, Administration and
Instructional Support“Providing the essential leadership and instructional support is critical. Leaders must model the effective use of technologies as well as articulate clear expectations for their faculty and staff.”
Infrastructure for Technology
“ Texas schools have been fortunate to have the support of the Texas legislature and the federal government in building the technology infrastructure that will allow students and teachers to make use of technology tools that are basic and necessary for education today and in the future.”
