Teachers and their tech gadgets Percent of each group who own each device… Cell phone Laptop computer Desktop computer An iPod or other MP3 player A game console like Xbox or PlayStation Handheld e-reading device such as a Nook or Kindle e-reader A tablet computer Teachers All U.S. Adults 18+ 19% Source: Teacher data from the Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project Online Survey of Teachers, March 7 to April 23, 2012, n=2,462 middle and high school teachers. Adult data from Pew Research’s Internet & American Life Project Tracking Surveys. Among this group of AP and NWP teachers, ownership of some gadgets varies considerably by age. Older AP and NWP teachers are more likely to own desktop computers and e-readers, while younger teachers are more likely to have an iPod or a game console. Laptop and tablet ownership are fairly consistent across age groups. 24% In some cases, teachers’ patterns of tech gadget ownership mirror the adult population as a whole. Among the full U.S. adult population, younger adults are most likely to own iPods and game consoles, and adults ages 30-64 have higher rates of desktop ownership than adults under age 30. However, in the full U.S. adult population, young adults are significantly more likely to be laptop owners, which is not the case among this group of AP and NWP teachers. And nationally, the youngest adults (ages 18-29) are more likely to be tablet owners than adults ages 50-64. Again, this pattern does not hold among AP and NWP teachers. p e winter n e t .o r g 14 44% 42% 39% 47% 53% 61% 58% 78% 84% 87% 94% 93% 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100%

Teachers’ smartphone ownership rates are higher than national figures; twothirds of teachers under age 35 have a smartphone As with the full U.S. adult population, these AP and NWP teachers are very heavy cell phone users. Overall, 94% say they own a cell phone, which is slightly above the national figure of 88% for all U.S. adults. More notably, among this group of teachers, 58% say their phone is a smartphone. This is more than 10 percentage points higher than the 46% of all adults who report having a smartphone in the most recent Pew Internet survey in December 2012. Smartphone ownership is highest among the youngest teachers, with 68% of AP and NWP teachers under age 35 owning a smartphone. Just 47% of teachers ages 55 and older say their phone is a smartphone. A similar pattern holds among the full U.S. adult population, with younger adults more likely than older adults to be smartphone owners. p e winter n e t .o r g 15
