Digital learning research
Research into digital learning is a high priority at ACER because ICT is regarded as an important component of improving education and its future. ACER is focussed on four research priorities:
- Teacher capacity to use ICT in education
- Case studies of successful implementation of digital technologies
- Equity of access and cultural and social interactions, and
- ICT in assessing and reporting.
