Effects of Technology on Students' Achievement:
A Second Order Meta Analysis by R. M. Tamim, Hamdan Bin Mohammed e-University, R. M. Bernard,
E. Borokhovski, P. C. Abrami, & R. F. Schmid, Concordia University,
Review of Educational Research, March 2011
574 individual effect-sizes (60,853
participants) were extracted from 13 meta-
analyses. The weighted mean effect-size of
0.304 supported the findings of the second-
order meta-analysis. The results
consistently represent a medium
strength effect-size, favoring the
utilization of technology.

A Meta-Analysis of the Effects of Computer Technology on
School Students' Mathematics Learning by Li, Qing and Ma, Xin, Educational Psychology Review, 2010
A meta-analysis of 85 independent effect
sizes extracted from 46 primary studies
involving a total of 36,793 learners indicated
statistically significant positive
effects of computer technology on
mathematics achievement.

The Effectiveness of Education Technology for Enhancing
Reading Achievement: A Meta-Analysis by Slavin, Robert E. and Cheung, Alan C. K.,
Johns Hopkins University and University of York, 2011
85 studies based on over 60,000 participants
were analyzed. The findings suggest that
education technology generally
produced a positive effect in
comparison to traditional methods. The effects may vary by education technology
type. Innovative technology
applications and integrated literacy
interventions with the support of
extensive professional development
showed more promising evidence.
