Abstract
The purpose of this descriptive-correlational study was to determine the use of technology in
youth programming by Extension youth development educators in Louisiana, Mississippi, and
Tennessee. Data were collected via e-mail and a SurveyMonkey© questionnaire. Extension
educators are using some technology in youth development programming. More than three-fourths of Extension youth educators are using Facebook; however, less than one fourth of
Extension youth educators are using Twitter which contradicts previous research. Having
technology available for use explains a medium amount of the technology use among Extension
youth educators; however, perceived barriers, anxiety, age, gender, years of experience, and
sources of technology training do not explain Extension youth educators technology use in their
programming. Extension youth educators fit the description of digital immigrants who assume
that today’s learners acquire knowledge the same way they learned when they were in school
