- Description:
- The problem was to identify and evaluate attitudes of high school administrators toward computers and to determine if participation in a computer literacy course would influence their attitudes. The study also compared certain administrator demographic characteristics and information gain to attitudes. The 50 administrators in this experimental study were selected from the City of Atlanta high schools. A content test was designed to measure the objectives of the course. Information gain measured the difference between pretest and posttest scores on the content in the computer literacy course. A questionnaire was developed to measure the administrators� attitudes toward computers. Statistical techniques used to test the seven null hypotheses were the independent t test, correlated t test, and Person Correlation Coefficient. Rejection of the null hypotheses was at the .05 level of statistical significance.
