Abstract

Beginning in 2004, ECAR has conducted an annual study of undergraduate students and information technology (IT), seeking to understand patterns of ownership and usage, skills with and preferences for various technologies, and how IT affects the college experience. In 2011, the study of students and technology was conducted in collaboration with Grunwald Associates LLC, which used a research methodology that resulted in a nationally representative sample of undergraduate students. The sample for ECAR National Study of Undergraduate Students and Information Technology, 2011 was stratified by region, institution type, and key demographics, with results from 3,000 college students from 1,179 colleges and universities. For its research, Grunwald Associates LLC conducted a survey in June 2011. (Note: In February 2011, ECAR conducted its traditional survey of undergraduate students, and ECAR developed a crosswalk that allows comparisons between the questions from the two survey instruments.)
