Should technology be used in the classroom to help students with math?

Since the beginning of the 2007-2008 school year several student's walked into my classroom having a difficult time with math. On our first district assesment which was given in October their were a lot of kids that were scoring Far Below Basic (FBB). Since then I have used several technology tools in the classroom and students scores have gone up. On my last district assessment test which was given in March of 2008 the majority of students have scored basic or proficient. I am going to keep track of students scores using their District assessments, CST test scores when they walk in and when they leave, and our own tests that we use here at Mulholland MS that our math coach (Mr. Ortega) has given us.
