Reflections on the IEA International Computer and Information Literacy Study 2018

Abstract

Literacy Study (ICILS) to understanding the extent to which young people are able to use information and communication technology (ICT) productively for a range of purposes. Those purposes relate to what happens in school and in other environments such as home, society, and future workplaces. In addition, we provide perspectives on factors that are associated with development of the digital capacities of young people. We provide an overview of the main on the implications of these results for developments in policy and practice that support the teaching and learning of ICT-related competencies in schools. of computer and information literacy (CIL) as a student learning outcome. Furthermore, it operationalized a standardized approach to the measurement of CIL in an international largescale assessment (ILSA), and established measures of CIL that could be used to monitor and investigate a critical aspect of students' digital competence.

Everything in moderation: ICT and reading performance of Dutch 15-year-olds

“…Boys use computers and the internet more often than girls (Drabowicz 2014;) and tend to use computers and the internet more often for entertainment than for school-related tasks (Tømte and Hatlevik 2011). According to the IEA International Computer and Information Literacy Study (ICILS 2013), boys and girls reported equal levels of basic ICT self-efficacy (e.g., searching for and finding files on the computer, creating or editing documents, uploading files to a digital platform) in most participating countries, including the Netherlands (Fraillon et al 2014). Boys, however, reported higher levels of advanced ICT self-efficacy (e.g., building a website, changing computer settings, creating a computer programs or macro) as compared to girls in almost all countries, including the Netherlands (Fraillon et al 2014).…”

In addition, a higher socio-economic status was generally associated with higher Computer and Information Literacy proficiency (Fraillon et al 2014).…”

Acceso, tiempo y propósito de uso de tecnologías digitales en estudiantes de pedagogía chilenos

“…Resultados similares obtuvieron también Claro et al (2012) al medir habilidades avanzadas en el empleo de teconologías digitales. Por otra parte, existe claridad en la literatura que los distintos propósitos de usos de tecnologías digitales van ligados a los niveles de alfabetización computacional de los jóvenes (Fraillon, Ainley, Schulz, Friedman & Gebhardt, 2014a).…”

Evaluation of information and communication technology sector in the teaching process and strategic collaboration between universities and industry

“…8 The main obstacles of ICT teaching are insufficient teachers' skills, low motivation, and lack of confidence in the use of new technologies, as well as limited access to ICT in schools. 9 The International Computer and Information Literacy study was the first international educational study, 10,11 and the purpose of the study was to examine the computer and information literacy of students relevant for the use of ICT. Modern society is characterized by the digitalization of all areas of people's life and work.…”
