More data on student IT experience and expectations

We've discussed our student's preparation -- what they do and do not know when they start school. The Educause Center for Applied Research (ECAR) conducts an annual study of students and information technology.

They have published the following on the 2007 study:

• An abstract
  
• The study methodology, including the student survey and interview
• A presentation highlighting the study results

The highlights include many observations, including these:

What do students do with IT?



How much IT do students want in their classes?


(Unfortunately, the full study requires a paid ECAR membership)
