It seems that almost all students today are immersed in technology from birth. That, however, does not mean that they are all comfortable with it or proficient at using it. This week, I surveyed my non-accelerated freshman and sophomore English students about their knowledge of and preference for technology. My school in Ohio is very rural, an environment that in the past could have meant that the students would be sheltered and isolated from diversity and world views. With the use of technology, the overwhelming majority of my students are very networked with others.
I looked up existing surveys online and put together a composite to use. My focus was on how much technology they have access to from home and at school, their preference for technology use in my class, and how much time they spend using different technologies.
