Franck Salles; Aurélie Lacroix – International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement, 2024
Digital technologies have the potential to revolutionize education by enhancing quality, fairness, and efficiency. However, equitable access to these technologies remains a challenge. ILSAs (international large-scale assessments) have shown that the relationship between digital use and performance varies across countries and over time. To fully…
