Abstract

Over the last ten years technology has become more and more prevalent in America’s schools. From school-wide computer labs to district-wide one-to-one technology initiatives, it is becoming increasingly common for students and teachers to interact with technology on a daily basis. Little research has been conducted to investigate the impact technology has had on teachers from the teacher’s point of view. This mixed-methods study investigated 120 teachers' perceptions of the impact technology has had on the K-12 classroom.
