ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book argues that it is a tool or resource is used as a key to the impact on learning. Personal ownership of powerful devices has leapt to the point where schools have to provide for a minority in order to have one-to-one access when needed. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) is leading the way with recognition of the importance of collaborative problem solving in a computer-based context and we will soon seeing comparative performance tables for 15-year-olds across the developed world. Concerns that children and young people are adrift on a sea of information without the skills and knowledge to make good use of digital technologies and stay safe online are leading to calls for schools to take a lead in the development of cyber-citizenship.
