<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> The survey results show that technology is a very important part of daily use in classrooms and that teachers in all grade levels are using it in their classrooms on a regular basis. One hundred percent of those surveyed are using a document camera and projector in their classrooms. Eighty percent say that they are using them on at least a weekly basis, with sixty percent saying that they use them daily. Eighty percent of those surveyed feel that using the document camera and projector in their classroom would help student learning. The results show that document cameras and projectors are useful pieces of equipment that teachers believe would enhance student learning. One hundred percent of the teachers were willing to attend a training session to learn to use the machines which shows that teachers are interested in using them if they are purchased. The survey results clearly support the use of document cameras and projectors in the classroom by teachers.
