Abstract

In this paper we study the impact of programs meant to spread the use of ICTS for teaching purposes in Chile. In particular, we measure the impact of two initiatives of the Ministry of Education —“Funds for Broadband” (2006-2010) and “ICT in Classroom” (2007-2011) —, on the students’ standardized tests performance in Language and Math, established by the Education Quality Measurement System (SIMCE), and available since 1998. The results show that the programs have not had a significant impact, neither individually or jointly, on the students’ performances, however, it was possible to identify positive and significant effects of ICT in Classroom on specific groups in language, but not in math.// En este artículo se estudia el impacto de programas de masificación del uso de Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) con fines pedagógicos en Chile. En particular, se mide el impacto de dos iniciativas del Ministerio de Educación (Mineduc), Fondos para Banda Ancha (2006-2010) y TIC en Aula (2007-2011), sobre el rendimiento de estudiantes del ciclo básico en las pruebas nacionales estandarizadas de lenguaje y matemáticas, establecidas por el Sistema de Medición de la Calidad de la Educación (SIMCE) y disponibles desde 1998. Los resultados muestran que estos programas no han tenido efectos significativos en el rendimiento, ni individual ni conjuntamente, pero si fue posible identificar efectos positivos y significativos de TIC en Aula sobre grupos específicos en lenguaje, no así en matemáticas
