| Popis: | This study reviews the effects of information and communication technology (ICT) on learning and information literacy of students. We used experimental method with pre-test and post-test along with a control group. The statistical population of this research consisted of all male students of the third year of middle school (school year 89-90) in the city of Arak. Using random cluster sampling, 64 students were chosen and placed into two groups of experimental and control after pre-certification testing. Data collection instruments were educational improvement test and standardized information literacy questionnaire. Collected data were analysed using analysis of covariance method, t test, and non- parametric Mann-Whitney U test. Findings showed that general hypothesis of the research were true: information and communication technology (ICT) has a significant effect on learning rate of students; and there is a significant difference between the experimental group and control group regarding information literacy and its features. Based on the results of this study, we recommend educational authorities to use information and communication technologies (ICT) in educational senders in order to improve students’ learning rate and educational quality. |
