3 things I discovered: About 45 percent of students access the Internet from home, and 43 percent access the Internet from school, About 46 percent of students use the Internet to complete school assignments, while 36 percent use the Internet for e-mail or instant messaging and 38 percent use it to play games, In contrast to the 1990s, when boys were more likely than girls to use computers and the Internet, overall computer and Internet use rates for boys and girls are now about the same.
2 things I found interesting: Students living with more highly educated parents are more likely to use these technologies than those living with less well educated parents, and those living in households with higher family incomes are more likely to use computers and the Internet than those living in lower income households, Whites and Asians are more likely to use computers at home than are Blacks, Hispanics, and American Indians.
3 things I discovered: In 2005, 15 percent of all public school instructional rooms had wireless Internet connections, Forty-seven percent of schools lending laptop computers reported that students could borrow them for less than 1 week, A school could use both wireless and wired Internet connections.
