Abstract

In response to the modest use of technology in most classrooms without significant influence on learning, much research has been done on the design of classroom, but the research on assessing the technology-rich classroom has lagged behind considerably. This paper aimed to develop and validate a scale for evaluating technology-rich classroom. In this paper, a framework was proposed to evaluate the technology-rich classroom environment on the physical and psychosocial aspects. Then, we conducted a survey to confirm the structure and the internal consistency reliability of the scale based on the proposed framework. The results indicated that the scale was useful for evaluating technology-rich classroom environment, as the results of evaluation provided informative references about how to improve classroom environments to enhance engaged learning.
