ICT Competency Survey (ICS): an index based measuring tool Self report questionnaire piloted in a project measuring ICT readiness in 170 schools of a disctrict in Budapest. • Index (1) – School access to ICT • Index (2) – Home access to ICT • Index (3) – ICT related attitudes • Index (4) – ICT related competencies • Index (5) – Educational use of ICT

  13. : „low” (value range: 0,01–1), „medium” (value range 1,01–2) „high” (value range 2,01–3) 0 value, indicating the non-existence of any interpretable data for the index. (low level ICT access means sporadic, rare access while 0 level indicates no access to a PC). Four domains for every index

  14. Training to use ICT in education through personality development ICS indices were correlated with the presence / absence of certain personality traits measured by CPI to identify personalitycharacteristics that tend to predict succeed or fail with ICT use in education. Some traits can be enhanced through personality development training.
