- College in the Information Age: Gains Associated with Students' Use of Technology Strayhorn, Terrell L. Technology Uses in Education Achievement Gains Influence of Technology College Students Statistical Significance Predictor Variables Learning Activities Instructional Materials Data Analysis Library Materials Library Services Research Universities Questionnaires Student Experience Likert Scales Correlation Student Attitudes Mass Media Use Mass Media Role Regression (Statistics) Increasingly college students are expected to use computers and technology in their studies. This study estimated the relationship between students' use of technology and self-reported educational gains. These gains range from general learning outcomes to specific outcomes related to computers and technology. Results suggest a modest, but statistically significant relationship between students' use of technology and closely related learning outcomes. Four college activities related to computer use emerged as strongest predictors of gains from college: searched internet for course material, used computer to analyze data, used index or database to find material, and retrieved off-campus library materials. Implications for policy and future research are discussed.
