Does Computer Use Increase Educational Achievements? Student-level Evidence from PISA

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to assess whether the use of ICT has an impact on student performances as measured in the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2006. After controlling for observable students’ characteristics and self-selection, we did find a positive and significant effect of the frequency of computer use on science scores. In most countries, however, this effect seems larger when computer is used at home rather than at school. This finding questions the effectiveness of educatio… Show more

“…In particular, a large number of researchers have used national or international assessment data, such as from the PISA, TIMMS, NAEP, PIRLS, and ELS2002, to explore this relationship. However, the previous research on the influences of ICT use on learning has unfortunately not produced consistent results (Song and Kang 2012;Wainer et al 2008;Luu and Freeman 2011;Spiezia 2010).…”

“…Por ello, diversos trabajos se han dedicado a investigar el efecto de las mismas sobre el rendimiento escolar (Machin, McNally y Silva, 2006;Aristizabal, Caicedo y Escandón, 2009;Spiezia, 2010;Carrillo, Onofa y Ponce, 2010;Cristia y otros, 2012). Asimismo, en la literatura también se dispone de estudios que, si bien han centrado la atención en otros determinantes de los resultados educativos, han utilizado variables referidas a las tic como control.…”

“…En otras variables importantes que consideran algunos estudios, está la formación, capacitación y utilización que tenga el profesorado de las TIC en la clase, así como con la intensidad de su uso (Meelissen y Drent, 2008;Spiezia, 2010) tanto dentro como fuera de la escuela (Spiezia, 2010 Bajo este esquema de pocos estudios de carácter cuantitativo, surge la inquietud de realizar estudios que midan el impacto de estas tecnologías en el proceso educativo, con especial énfasis en países en desarrollo, donde una mayor calidad educativa es el camino para lograr un mayor desarrollo económico y, a la vez, constituye un reto en tanto la inversión que destinan para ello.…”
