It should be noted that changes were made to the survey questions this year. The choice was made to use questions from the Wikiwijs survey regarding digital learning materials in order to promote the
2
comparability of research into digital learning materials. These make the figures more consistent with the Wikiwijs and SLO surveys. Last year, SLO’s learning materials monitor reported that digital learning
materials accounted for 43% of the learning materials in primary schools and 39% of the learning materials in secondary schools (SLO, 2012). The Wikiwijs survey’s figures were 23% in primary schools, 26%
in pre-vocational schools, 22% in senior general secondary and pre-university schools, and 38% in VET schools (Wikiwijs, 2012).
