Published case studies have used different computational approaches. This paper examines the computation of partial EVPI estimates via Monte-Carlo sampling algorithms. Our mathematical definition shows two nest...

One possible consequence of ICT’s rapid rise will be a new ‘generation gap’ arising from differing perceptions of the learning technologies. The nature, causes and consequences of this gap are of interest to educational practitioners and policymakers. This paper uses data from an ongoing project together with a synopsis of research to describe the ICT-based generation gap that currently exists ...
