1. I use technology resources in my daily lessons at least 1 to 3 times a week.
2. I find the resources by searching the internet or teacher recommendations.
3. A centrally located data band of resources would make my job easier. From year to year I forget which sites I used. If they were listed in one particular area I wouldn't have to worry about adding them to my favorites, having something go wrong with my computer, then losing everything.
4. My biggest deterrent to using technology in the classroom is the malfunctioning of my computers - no sound, freezing, etc. They are not reliable.
5. Out of the 4 student computers that I have, none of them have sound.
