INTRODUCTION

Research Questions (if research questions are not specifically mentioned, what is
the theoretical background or overarching theme):

1. What is the impact of the training process on school administrators’ use of iPads for
administrative tasks and personal organization in their professional duties?

2. What is the impact of the training process on school administrators’ beliefs regarding
how teachers should use iPads in the classroom?

3. Are there any differences in school administrators’ survey responses based on gender,

school classification, or school size?

male, 41.2% (n = 21) of the participants were female. Additionally, 37 of pre-survey
respondents completed the post-survey, yielding a response rate of 72.55%. Twenty-one
(56.76%) respondents in post-survey were male, and 16 (43.24%) were female.”

Procedures: Surveys were conducted. Pre- survey; a training on how to use the iPads for
admin tasks and a post- survey; questions intended to measure self-reported improvements
in certain tasks after completing the training. The pre-survey was administered at the
beginning of the spring 2013 semester and the postsurvey was given at the end of the four-
month study period. The survey instruments were, multiple choice and Likert-type scale
items, paired sample t-test data analysis, ANOVA.
