The 2010 annual Speak Up survey polled 294,399 K-12 students, parents, teachers, librarians, school administrators, and school technology officials from across the country. Part of the report includes data from a cohort of 35,525 teachers, who were asked how they use technology in their classrooms. The results are featured in the report, “The New 3 E’s of Education: Enabled, Engaged, Empowered.”
