Through the interview of middle and high school students, I found some interesting things about teenagers usage of technology. Of students surveyed:
71% access the Internet mostly from home
85% access the Internet using a desktop computer; however about 30% also use other means such as laptops, cell phone or game system
Majority talk on their cell phone for < 1hour; however about 30% spend more than 5 hours a day texting
Majority spend less than an hour a day using computer for homework, while 100% have at least a desktop computer of which 85% have Internet connection
More than 50% do not know about or use blogs or podcasts and about 40% use Wikis from home for both personal and academic reasons
Below is a podcast of an interview I had with two middle school and 2 high school students.
