Computers as Pedagogical Tools in Brazil: A Pseudo-Panel Analysis
Copyright policy )Computers as Pedagogical Tools in Brazil: A Pseudo-Panel Analysis
In this paper, we use repeated cross-section data on pupils in Brazil to estimate the effect of the availability and use of computers and internet as pedagogical tools on math and reading test scores. Computers are increasingly commonly used in schools and their effectiveness in improving learning is the subject of many recent evaluations in Europe and the US. We apply the pseudo panel technique to evaluate the effect of variation in the availability and use of computers and internet in Brazilian schools on pupils’ test scores.
