A survey and an interview were used to answer the following question: ‘To what extent does the grade influence the ICT-attitude and educational use of ICT by the teachers?’ Of the 217 respondents that filled out the survey, ten were also interviewed. This research consisted of three quantitative and one qualitative method. At first the relation between gender and being a senior or junior grade teacher was investigated using a chi-square test. The results showed there were more male teachers in senior grades. Secondly, the difference in ICT-attitude and the educational use of ICT between teachers of the senior and junior grades was measured with a t-test. There was no difference between senior and junior grade teachers with regards to their attitudes towards ICT. However, there was a difference in the educational use of ICT when comparing these two groups of teachers. Thirdly, the influence of ICT-attitude on use of ICT was investigated by using the simple linear regression method. ICT-attitude was a good predictor of educational use of ICT. Lastly, the use of ICT of senior and junior grade teachers was measured using quantitative analysis. The results showed that the use of ICT was comparable to the existing literature on this subject. The data also showed that men use ICT for education in more ways than women. Additionally the research showed that senior grade teachers use ICT more when compared to the junior grade teachers.Show less
