Description

The qualitative component was an exploratory case study that took "a more in-depth look at the characteristics of high and low-performing students on the digital skills test" by "analyzing their activities, perceptions and motivations when using technology." It complemented the statistical analysis by characterizing how students at the extremes of the test-score distribution actually behave with technology.
