ICT use among 13‐year‐old Swedish children

Abstract: The children in the Swedish compulsory schools have grown up in a digital culture, but they have internalized ICT in different ways and gained mostly of their knowledge by peer-based learning. The aim with this study is to give an empirical understanding of 13 years old Swedish pupils user patterns of ICT during school and everyday life. The data is collected through a survey (n=256) and the informants are 13-years old Swedish children. All children have access to ICT but they use it in various ways. Three dif… Show more

“…The self-reported questionnaire survey included the following questions: the frequency of ICT usage, online games and applets, learning management system, blogs and online social networking software use, in both English and mathematics lessons. The questions were adapted from Samuelsson (2010). The frequency of use is based on a Likert scale of 1 to 7 (1 = once a month, 2 = once every 3 weeks, 3 = once every 2 weeks, 4 = once every 10 days, 5 = once every week, 6 = once every 2 to 3 days and 7 = once every day).…”

“…Even though certain activities may be promoted in a given context, students engage in both playful and educational activities at school and at home (Selwyn, Potter, and Cranmer 2009). School ICT use emphasizes educational purposes such as researching, learning, and promoting ICT skills and is supervised by teachers (Samuelsson 2010). Home ICT use tends to focus more on leisure purposes such as playing games (Mumtaz 2001) and less on educational purposes such as doing homework and using educational software (Malamud and Pop-Eleches 2011).…”

“…The weak, negative effect of school ICT is disappointing. Although school ICT use is schoolwork-focused and supervised by teachers (Samuelsson 2010), the present quality of school ICT use appears to limit its benefits (Morgan 2010). Another reason may be that the PISA school ICT use items relate to the frequency of use for different purposes (e.g., browsing the Internet for schoolwork, using email, and playing simulations; Table 1).…”

“…The cautions concerning technology usage and screen time include both physical (Wiecha et al, 2006, Torsheim et al, 2010 and psychological (APA, 2015) pathologies, such as obesity, spinal damage, vision problems, irregular sleep patterns, attention problems, violent behaviour, a decrease in academic performance, and antisocial behaviours. Despite concerns among parents and educators, the amount of empirical evidence of the adverse impacts of technology on children is minimal.…”
