A report by Pew Internet and American Life Project found that American teenagers are not satisfied with their teachers' ability to use the Internet.

The report found that teenagers thought that their teachers were either unable or unwilling to use the Internet correctly. Teenagers also said that assignments set to test the students ability to use the Internet were rare and those that were set were usually of no interest to them.

According to statistics shown in the report 78% of middle and high school students use the Internet in America.
