America's Schools Not Designed or Equipped for 21st Century Gao ID: T-HEHS-95-127 April 4, 1995

In educating America's children for an increasingly technological world, schools must have the equipment and infrastructure, such as computers, in place before technology can be fully integrated into the curriculum. GAO surveyed about 10,000 schools across the country and visited 10 school districts. GAO found that overall the nation's schools are not even close to meeting their basic technology needs. Most schools do not use modern technology, and not all students have equal access to facilities that can support education into the 21st century, even those attending school in the same district.
