Funded Activity Summary

Being digital in school, home and community: investigating the implications of young people's engagement with ICT for education. Understanding more about young people's use of ICT at home, at school and in the community has major potential to contribute to the improvement of education. Data on young people's everyday digital literacy practices will point the way to the strategic targeting of government investment in ICT. These data will assist schools in designing their missions, trajectories and curricula. They will also interest parents, employers, community groups and the public at large. If well publicised, the study will generate pressure for more and better understanding of how to integrate the use of ICT into education programs in the future.
