本文认为，无论OECD 2015年的报告对ICT与PISA成绩的关系有何价值，我们的研究表明，在学习困难学生的教育中使用ICT具有巨大的价值，可以让这些学生感兴趣，激发他们的热情，激发他们的灵感，从而带来更好的教育结果。“学习困难”一词指的是一大群儿童因各种认知和身体障碍而需要额外帮助学习的情况。据报道，这项研究是在墨尔本大都市的两所特殊学校进行的，目的是调查是否以及如果可以的话，信息和通信技术可以用来支持有学习困难学生的学校社区，以及它是否可以帮助这些学生的学习。这项研究发现，ICT确实改善了学习困难学生的学习态度，并为他们提供了足够的技能，使他们能够通过各种途径进入劳动力大军或继续深造。它提供的证据表明，对于学习困难的学生来说，在课堂上采用信息和通信技术有助于他们在技能和学术知识方面取得显著成就。
This article argues that whatever the 2015 OECD report says about the value of ICT in relation to PISA results, our research has shown that using ICT in the education of students with Learning Difficulties has great value in interesting, enthusing and inspiring these students, so leading to better educational outcomes. The term 'Learning Difficulties' (LD) is used to refer to a condition of a large group of children who need extra assistance with schooling and arises from a vast range of cognitive and physical impairments. The reported research was conducted in two Special Schools in metropolitan Melbourne with the goal of investigating whether, and if so how, ICT could be used to support school communities involving students with learning difficulties, and whether it could help these students with their learning. This research found that ICT certainly does improve LD students' attitude to learning and equips them with adequate skills to allow them to enter the workforce or continue with further study through various pathways. It provides evidence that for LD students, a significant attainment in skills and academic knowledge is facilitated by the adoption of ICT in the classroom.
