Abstract: This study explored, how middle school teachers value the technology, and the facilities and equipment provided by their schools. One thousand questionnaires were sent and the data was collected at the end of May 2002, just before the end of the school year. The questionnaire consisted of two parts. In Part One the teachers marked how valuable these types of technology were (very valuable, valuable, no opinion, little value and no value). In Part Two the subjects indicated the availability of different types of technology in their schools and the training provided for them and their students by their schools. The results were analyzed using percentages of value. Moreover, the respondents were mathematics, science, social studies, and English teacher in middle schools.
