Title
Inclusiveness of ICT in secondary education: students' appreciation of ICT tools
Subject
The following article presents methods to assess students’ appreciation of ICT tools in secondary schools, as well as results from research conducted using those methods.
Description
This paper presents the results of a study on students’ appreciation of information and communication technology (ICT) applications in schools for general secondary education. Results show that girls appreciate applications that deal with an interesting subject, are easy to work with and provide good support. Different appreciations between students from different origins were found in regard to language achievements and ICT skills. The results are discussed, as well as the possible educational implications for the design and selection of ICT tools.
