National Center for Education Statistics
This report is based on the 2018-19 survey "Teachers' Use of Technology for School and Homework Assignments." This survey was conducted in response to a request from Congress about the educational impact of students' access outside the classroom to digital learning resources, such as computers and the Internet. This report provides statistics about the use of technology for homework assignments in grades 3-12. Data were provided by public school teachers about their homework practices and about their understanding of information technology available to their students outside of school. The report presents information about various ways that teachers' students can access school computers and the Internet outside of class time. It also presents data on methods teachers use to find out about their students' access to computers and the Internet at home and how knowledgeable they consider themselves about this access. Teachers' estimates of the extent to which their students access computers and/or the Internet in various locations outside of school to work on school assignments are reported. The report includes information on the access and availability of computers, smartphones, and the Internet to students at home. Data are presented on the extent that teachers' homework assignments are influenced by their students' access to technology and the Internet outside of school. This report includes information on ways that teachers provide assistance to their students who have limited access to technology and the Internet outside of school. It also provides information on the extent to which students have difficulty completing technology-based homework and how prepared students are to use the technology required for online or computerized assessments given by the state, district, or school.
