Evaluating the Use of Laptop Computers in Secondary Education in Greece: Findings from a National Survey of Teachers

Abstract

In this paper, the results of the evaluation of “pupil’s laptop” initiative in Greece are presented. The project was implemented in 2009 in all first-grade high-school classes throughout the Greek territory. The evaluation took place 4 years later through an extensive questionnaire that was fulfilled by the educators/teachers that took part in the action. The outcomes of the evaluation highlight the interesting points regarding both the strategies that was adopted in the deployment of the project and for the lessons learned and the actual use of the laptops within the classroom.
