A new study finds US students use technology and digital tools in every part of their lives – except school. 

The study by AdvancED found few students use technology or digital tools in any meaningful way in their classrooms. Yes, teachers have been trained to use whiteboards and many do, but there's little hands-on use of technology by students themselves, according to observations of students in 144,000 K-12 classrooms.
