Interview with Robert Kvavik, co-author of the ECAR of Students and Information Technology. Some interesting bits. For example, "We hear all this hype about digital natives and millennial students, and then find that they only had a moderate preference for technology in the classroom." And "the results do not vary much by the institutions, nor by grade point average, which may be the typical ways we measure ability; that the use of IT transcends this, that students have an innate ability to work with and learn technology regardless of academic performance."
