“…Against this background, the impact of ICTs on the academic performance of students has become the subject of numerous debates involving economists and education scientists [4][5][6][7]. The literature mainly examines why an increase in performance (in particular, higher examination marks) might be attributable to use of ICTs in higher education [8][9][10].…”

ICT Use, Digital Skills and Students’ Academic Performance: Exploring the Digital Divide

2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are an integral part of our environment, and their uses vary across generations and among individuals. Today’s student population is made up of “digital natives” who have grown up under the ubiquitous influence of digital technologies, and for whom the use of ICT is common and whose daily activities are structured around media use. The aim of this study is to examine the impact of ICT use and digital skills on students’ academic performance and to explore the digital divide in France. Data were collected through face-to-face questionnaires administered to 1323 students enrolled in three French universities. Principal component analysis, a non-hierarchical k-means clustering approach and multilevel ordered logistic regression were used for data analysis and provide four main findings: first, poor investment in ICT affects students’ results; second, the ICT training offered by universities has little impact on students’ results; third, student performance improves with the innovative and collaborative use of ICTs; fourth, the acquisition of digital skills increases students’ academic performance. The results show that the digital divide still exists, and this raises questions about the effectiveness of education policies in France. They suggest also that organizational change in universities is essential to enable an exploitation of ICT.

“…We examine whether improvements in student performance are the result of the use of ICT. Existing work in this direction does not include France and, also, provides mixed results for those countries studied (see [8,16,17] for the United States; [18] for Russia; [19] for Germany; [12,20] for Spain; and [21,22] for Turkey).…”

“…However, their research based on the Internet of ings technology is only limited to the product service system, and the system of course management has not been innovated and explored. In the homework management of accounting courses, the results of Fratto et al's research show that, compared with traditional paper and paper homework, the use of online homework management system is effective in improving student performance and course satisfaction in introductory accounting courses [2]. But they only managed and researched online homework.…”

With the continuous development of the Internet of Things technology, the latest information technology represented by the network, digital, and intelligence is changing people’s work, learning, and lifestyle and bringing new development space to education. The physical education curriculum management system in colleges and universities brings convenience to teachers and students, facilitates the centralized management of students by teachers, ensures the safety of students in physical education classes, and reduces the risk of injury to students in physical education classes. The innovative construction of college physical education curriculum is a systematic project, which aims to deepen educational reform, improve the physical condition of students, and enable students to experience advanced teaching methods. At the same time, university physical education teachers have a degree of higher education, provide information, and promote interaction with students. This improves the quality and ability of teachers and students themselves. The paper proposes related research on the design of college physical education curriculum management system based on the Internet of Things. Through the use of Internet of Things wireless channel technology and UWB indoor positioning technology, combined with the impact of the Internet of Things on cognition, the arrangement of physical education courses and student positioning and sign-in are designed, and the results of the system test are found. Compared with the previous system,. this system has improved the positioning and sign-in accuracy of physical education courses by 5–10%, and the efficiency of physical education courses has also increased by 2–5%.

“…Magalhães et al [18] refer to the homework performance indicators that could be "retention of knowledge, exam and final grades, homework assignments completed, overall performance". Results showed that homework in different formats had positive results for increasing and keeping students' performance [29,30]. Bembenutty and White [31] indicated the importance of homework logs and intrinsic motivation for the academic performance that reflects on students' satisfaction.…”

Does Gamifying Homework Influence Performance and Perceived Gameful Experience?

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

There is a growing body of literature that recognizes the importance of applying gamification in educational settings. This research developed an application to gamify students’ homework to address the concern of the students’ inability to complete their homework. This research aims to investigate students’ performance in doing their homework, and reflections and perceptions of the gameful experience in gamified homework exercises. Based on the data gathered from experimental and control groups (N = 84) via learning analytics, survey, and interview, the results show a high level of satisfaction according to students’ feedback. The most noticeable finding to extract from the analysis is that students can take on a persona, earn points, and experience a deeper sense of achievement through doing the gamified homework. Moreover, the students, on the whole, are likely to be intrinsically motivated whenever the homework is attributed to factors under their own control, when they consider that they have the expertise to be successful learners to achieve their desired objectives, and when they are interested in dealing with the homework for learning, not just achieving high grades.
