Opis

There has been concern for more than a decade that pupils in English schools do not have sufficient knowledge, skills and understanding of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). This research investigates approaches to the organisation of the ICT curriculum, teaching and learning, management, staffing and resources that are associated with high levels of ICT capability among 14-16 year olds in four secondary schools, each of which organised the delivery of the ICT curriculum in different ways. The more and less successful schools are characterised, and there is discussion of the issues arising and those areas requiring further research.
