Appendix C - 1 SURWEB - Using Educators' Uses of Technology Resources The Use of SURWEB by Utah Educators Survey |
The Use of SURWEB by Utah Educators
The Southeast Utah Resource Web (SURWEB) is a unique multimedia application that integrates new tools into teaching and learning. It is a project of the Southeast Utah Region Educational Service Center and is funded in part by the U.S. Department of Education's Technology Innovation Challenge Grant Program. As an experienced SURWEB user, you have been selected to help us evaluate the uses of SURWEB in the classroom so that we can plan the most effective uses of SURWEB for learning. Your responses to this questionnaire will be compared to technology-using educators in Utah and around the nation so that SURWEB can assess its progress in bringing quality educational resources to schools. Your response is very important to us and will remain completely anonymous. Results will be available in Fall 2000 on the SURWEB site at www.surweb.org.
