Ngan, Ming-Yan; Lee, Chi-Kin John; Koo, Ramsey D.
Childhood Education, v79 n5 p268-75 2003
A case study of an elementary school in Hong Kong found students benefit most when provided many opportunities to use information technologies (IT). Teachers' attitudes influence students' attitudes toward IT, and teachers are more likely to use technology if equipment is in the classroom. Improved curriculum and teaching methods will ensure the most effective use of information technology. (TJQ)
