Digital Learning Resources in Education

This book suggests that information communication technologies (ICT) can be used to support the required curriculum programmes in primary and secondary level educational settings. A study has explored attitudes and perceptions about the use of digital learning technologies in education. The methodology integrated insights from the pace of technological innovativeness and the technology acceptance models to understand the rationale for further ICT investment in compulsory education. A quantitative analysis indicated that the educators were committed to use digital technologies at school. This study has shown that younger teachers were increasingly engaging in digital learning resources. Similarly, the qualitative research revealed that students were valuing digital resources. They held that they were seeing many benefits if they learn how to use technologies at school. In the main, the interviewees maintained that digital learning resources have enhanced their extant knowledge, skills and competences that were relevant for their future employment prospects.
