This past week I had hoped to talk with students from my own school, which is a rural middle school in Northeast Georgia. The school system is a one county high school, one middle school, and five elementary schools feeding the high school and middle school. Unfortunatley, the students and teachers were on spring break this week. I was not able to interview any students; however, I was able to track down an elementary school teacher (my wife) that was "eager" to share her experiences with technology in the classroom.
She has taught in our school system for two years. Before coming to our current school district, she taught in a more affluent school for six years where students had more access to technology outside of the home versus the district we both teach in now. Our current school district has a high number of low-socioeconomic students. Access to technology is not as prevelant as the previous school she taught in before coming to her present school.
