U.S. Students' Computer Literacy Performance Drops

U.S. scores were on par with the international average for computer and information literacy but below average for computational thinking.
The article from Education Week discusses a concerning trend in U.S. students' computer literacy, as revealed by the 2024 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). The latest results indicate a decline in students' proficiency in using computers for educational purposes, with scores dropping significantly since the last assessment. This downturn comes despite increased access to technology in schools, highlighting issues such as inadequate digital skills training, the digital divide, and the impact of remote learning during the global health crisis. Experts suggest that while students have more access to devices, there's a lack of structured learning on how to effectively use technology for learning, critical thinking, and problem-solving. The article also touches on the disparities in performance across different demographic groups, with students from lower-income families and certain minority groups showing more pronounced declines. There's a call for a reevaluation of how technology is integrated into education to ensure it enhances learning outcomes rather than just providing access.
