dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to determine whether instructional technology and student one-to-one devices had a positive impact on student achievement in English Language Arts. The measurement for this study was provided through the eighth-grade curriculum guide and teacher resources provided by Harford County Public Schools. The assessment consisted of 12 multiple choice questions about the literary components within the text. It was determined that there were no significant differences in performance when students utilized technology in a standard eighth grade English Language Arts classroom. The mean test scores of the control group (Mean = 10.69, SD = .93) did not differ significantly from the mean test scores of the treatment group (Mean = 10.75, SD = 1.00) [t(69) = .28, p = .78]. Implications for future research and recommendations for future research are discussed within the study.en_US
