The Second Information Technology
in Education Study: Module 2 (SITES: M2) is an international study of
innovative pedagogical practices that use information and communication
technology (ICT). The study is sponsored by the International Association
for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA). In each of the 28 countries
that participated in the study, national panels used common selection criteria,
modified by national context, to identify 174 innovative classrooms. National
research teams used a common set of case study methods to collect data on
the pedagogical practices of teachers and learners, the role that ICT played
in these practices, and the contextual factors that supported and influenced
them. The International Coordinating Committee (ICC) conducted a cross-case
analysis using qualitative and quantitative methods. Implications are drawn
for both improved policy and classroom practice. The final report is available
from the International
Society for Technology in Education.
