Abstract

The findings of this quantitative investigation of the use of the Internet in Alberta schools confirmed the findings of earlier studies. The survey asked teachers and principals about their preparation for using the technology and the provision of adequate hardware and software and opportunities for professional development. The majority of respondents felt positively about the Internet as a teaching and learning tool, and many were exploring its use through trial and error. The findings also suggest that there is need and opportunity for school librarians to take a stronger role in supporting Internet use in schools, and the authors offer useful strategies for this goal.
