The ECAR Study of Undergraduate Students and Information Technology, 2007
Gail Salaway and Judith Borreson Caruso, with Mark R. Nelson. Introduction by Chris Dede. 122 pages

This 2007 ECAR research study is a longitudinal extension of the 2004, 2005, and 2006 ECAR studies of students and information technology. The study, which reports noticeable changes from previous years, is based on quantitative data from a spring 2007 survey and interviews with 27,846 freshman, senior, and community college students at 103 higher education institutions. It focuses on what kinds of information technologies these students use, own, and experience; their technology behaviors, preferences, and skills; how IT impacts their experiences in their courses; and their perceptions of the role of IT in the academic experience.

The key findings and Roadmap are publicly available at:
