Technology continues to evolve at lightning speed, especially in the world of education. When the use of technology in education is considered, the focus tends to be on specific applications such as Google Classroom, websites, and word processing (Tierney, n.d.). It has been contended that teachers act as technology gatekeepers in today's schools, controlling both the content and the instructional strategies that are often utilized (Shifflet & Weilbacher, 2015). However, student use of technology, and specifically technology applications, must be considered when thinking ahead about both education and student engagement. Research has shown that when students are engaged with learning, not only can they focus their attention and energy on mastering the task, but also persist when difficulties arise, build supportive relationships with adults and peers, and connect to their school (Wang & Degol, 2014). This study examined the use of instructional technology and whether teachers think these technologies affect students' attitudes, interests, and values about learning, a sense of belonging within a learning community, motivation for students to learn, and a persistence to overcome academic challenges and meet or exceed requirements (Schindler et al., 2017). This research design was a non-directional, exploratory survey-based research design that used a convenience sample of middle school teachers. The results of the study revealed key insights into the use of instructional technology, perceptions of teachers towards the use of technology, and various barriers that they face in technology integration in the middle school classroom. The study found that the perceptions and attitudes of middle school teachers was dependent upon subject taught, experiences, and class sizes. Overall findings showed that the use of instructional technology in middle school classrooms was valued as an instructional tool.
