Students with five or more years of experience using computers score an average of 32.5 points higher on the OECD’s Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) test than those who have used computers for less than one year, a new Chilean study finds. The Universidad de Chile study investigated the scores of a group of students in their tenth year of schooling, all approximately 15 years old, and their familiarity with computers. According to the report, discounting socioeconomic, familial or school factors, the students who used technology for five or more years scored higher than those who did not.
