Abstract

Abstract ====Students today are surrounded in entertainment and that entertainment comes in the form of technology. This project presents information showing the correlation between technology and student motivation. Students were given assignments where technology was not included. Then they were given the same assignments and were allowed to use the computer. Data was collected in three different areas; student surveys, homework checklist, and student interviews. In the results you will find students motivation to complete their work increases with the use of technology. The results of the student surveys will show students enjoy working with technology more than doing worksheets or working with paper and pencil. The charts and graphs of the results can be seen in the appendices. ====
