Abstract [en]

Digitalization in schools is now a natural part of the teaching environment but issues related to the maintenance and management of classroom technology pose a challenge to both teachers and staff. Can using modern web technologies to create a web-based classroom inventory and malfunction report system solve the problem or does the introduction of a new digital system provide a greater challenge to teachers and staff.

The goal of this study is to determine if better management of physical technologies inside today’s classrooms can help create a more stable learning environment with less time lost maintaining technology and more time using it. The study will focus on how modern web technologies can be used to create a system which can solve the problem, but more importantly if the system can meet the demands of teachers and staff.

A literature study, including the needs and challenges of digitalization within schools today, provides important information to build upon. Then a combination of statistics and cooperation from staff at a large Swedish school are used to create a web-based solution to the problem at hand. Finally, system feedback is accompanied by three teacher interviews about the introduction of the new digital system.

Results from the study show that staff acknowledge the need for improvements relating to the maintenance and management of physical technologies within classrooms. DLG Klassrum, a newly created web-based system, is supported by staff and viewed as a potential solution to the problem, but challenges related to the introduction of a new digital system and the level of a teacher’s digital competence must first be overcome.

To digitalize the physical classroom, through a system using modern web technologies, can successfully improve the learning environment within classrooms, but a good level of planning, preparation and cooperation are key to its level of success.
