Abstract
Technology changed teachers' roles from a centralized position to that of a decentralized position. This article examines that role change and discusses the factors that cause teachers to use or not use technology in their classroom. Also, suggestions for successful inservice training in technology are discussed and suggestions for changing attitudes about technology are presented.Keywords
