This review summarises the key messages from published literature on the impact of ICT education in schools. It focuses on the infrastructure needed to support the use of ICT; its impact on learning and teaching; and on the extent to which ICT supports communication and links across schools and into the wider community. It concludes by drawing out several issues for further exploration and research.
The review covers over 350 evidence sources, ranging from policy documents, professional journals, research reports, reviews and digests, to commercial publications. Much of the evidence of impact on attainment and intermediate outcomes, such as motivation and engagement, is derived from small-scale case studies.
In listing research, EdCentral makes no judgment or recommendation as to its quality, validity or methodology and none should be inferred. Through peer ratings left by education practitioners, EdCentral’s aim is to support the development of a repository of shared knowledge and experience.
