Abstract
Fifty-eight percent of k-12 school business administrators in the Western New York region participated in a survey, in which actual and ideal computer use was assessed in three categories: basic, job specific, and information sharing. We found that school business administrators perceived their actual use of computers as less than their ideal use. A need for technology training for administrators was evident in his study
