Texas Long Range Plan for Technology

I am actually encouraged by reading the Long Range Plan for Technology compiled by the Texas Education Agency. It is encouraging to me to know that the state is not only aware of the technology shortcomings of its schools, but is making a plan to do something about it. The plans laid out in the document are very necessary. Equitable access to technology, professional development opportunities for teachers, a reliable infrastructure, and effective leadership are all quite necessary and are severely lacking in many school districts today. I will be interested to see if the state is able to follow through with the objectives laid out in this plan. Hopefully, it won't be modified down to an unrecognizable version of its former self.
