Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to try to specify the basic ICT knowledge of ordinary Japanese high school students and discuss the relationships between their ICT knowledge and their usage of ICT devices. At the beginning of the academic year 2017, the authors of this paper introduced a program for the 10th grade students of Ehime University senior high school. They chose this school as a model school to introduce front-loaded ICT-driven education and e-learning of the Pioneer Advanced Placement (P-AP) Program. In the first lessons in 2017, they conducted a placement test followed by two surveys with questionnaires on the test and their usage of information devices. Finally, they concluded, from the test results, that the levels of the basic ICT knowledge of the high school students were one grade lower than those of the participant freshmen of colleges and universities in Japan. Furthermore, they clearly deducted, from the results of the second questionnaire survey on their usage of information devices, that how many hours and for what purpose they would use ICT devices were an important key to enhancing their basic ICT knowledge.
