TSDP CCISD - Technology Staff Development Plan The advancement of technology is integral to almost every aspect of society. We believe that educating students in the proper use of technology and electronic resources is critical in helping our students develop the characteristics defined in the Portrait of a Clear Springs High School Graduate, as well as helping our students participate in a technology literate society. A curriculum that incorporates technology is able to expand content and experiences for students. For such opportunities to be a reality, educators must have the basic skills needed to use technology in instruction, as well as possess effort level that allows them to encourage and promote the use of technology by students

CCISD Technology Competencies Technology Applications Standards for All Teachers Technology standards were incorporated into the ExCETS, and now TExES assessments for Pedagogy and Professional Responsibilities at each certification level. SBEC’s standards are directly associated with the grade 6 – 8 Technology Applications TEKS.

The purpose of the TSDP skills is to identify required competencies for all personnel. Our educators should be proficient in the skills that our 8th grade students should know when entering the 9th grade. The CCISD TSDP plan is divided into 4 categoires. Within a category ALL personnel must demonstrate Level 1 and Level 2 competencies. Category A and B personnel will also be required to complete Level 3. In addition, supervisors may establish higher levels of required demonstrated competency by position or as professional growth objectives. Technology Competencies are required of all personnel in CCISD. Upon completion of the required levels of TSDP, educators should have the necessary skills to integrate technology into their curriculum. This will benefit our students in their education.

CCISD Technology Competency Levels Specific competencies as well as competency levels assigned to particular categories of personnel are based upon District expectations for job performance. Competencies and competency levels will continually be updated as job requirements and technology change.
