Resumen
FORMICHELLA, María Marta y ALDERETE, María Verónica. ICT at school and educational outcomes: the mediating effect of the use of ICT at home. Cuad. Investig. Educ. [online]. 2018, vol.9, n.1, pp.75-93. ISSN 1510-2432. https://doi.org/10.18861/cied.2018.9.1.2822.
This paper analyzes the effects of the access to Information and Communication Technologies and its use at primary schools on the academic results of secondary school students in Uruguay. The authors of the present paper also assess whether the ICT use at home reinforces the ICT access and use thereof at school. By means of a Structural Equation Model and using data from PISA 2012 Uruguay, the authors’ findings suggest that ICT access and use at school have a positive effect on the educational outcome in every discipline, which is strengthened by the use of ICT at home. The potential utility of the research also lies in the feasibility of the hypotheses and methodology in similar contexts. Besides, it contributes to future research to be conducted with data from forthcoming PISA tests.
