Roughly 86 percent of U.S. teachers say computer technology has changed the way they teach at least some, and more than half (55 percent) say it has impacted their instruction "a great deal," according to a new survey commissioned by CDW-G.

"The use of technology in the classroom is not only here to stay, but it has an increasing presence and an increasing significance in what's going on in the classroom," said Deirdre Martel, marketing research manager at QED.

The project will develop curricula and build a collection of best practices intended to help educators better prepare today's students for success in an increasingly digital future.
