Abstract

Everyday, one sees or hears news about the latest advancements in educational technology and what these new technologies can do for our children and their learning environment. The focus of these studies concentrated on the effects of technology in the classroom and on the students. One major aspect, which is often overlooked in these investigations, is that of the teacher's attitude toward this technology and its utility as a learning tool. This study focuses on the often-overlooked teacher-link in the successful implementation of technology in the learning environment and investigates the attitudes towards technology of teachers from three school districts in Louisiana. In this research, differences among school systems, teaching level, gender, and teaching experience are studied. This study surveyed K-12 teachers representing three types of school systems - an urban system, a rural/urban system, and a rural system.
