Summary This study explores the use of emerging technology in middle school art classrooms. It is intended to assist the Wake County Public School System's Middle School Professional Learning Community identify where their members most need support accessing resources and guidance for emerging technology integration. The research methods included a survey and an interview. A sample size represented the middle school art teachers within the county. 22 teachers completed the survey, and two were interviewed. The participating art teachers gave insights into factors that influence their perspectives of technology integration and opinions on the support received from the professional learning community and school system. Art teachers indicated a need for technology-oriented professional development opportunities, the facilitation of technology training to promote digital citizenship for their students, potential collaborations between art and career and technical education departments, and funding for both installations and maintenance of technologies. Overall, the findings highlighted the need for increased guidance and support from the professional learning community and school system to help teachers integrate technology effectively into their art classrooms.
