The OECD Centre for Educational Research and Innovation, CERI (www.oecd.org/edu/ceri) and the Korea Education and Research Information Service, KERIS are undertaking new work on the new millennium learners exploring the relationships between digital technologies and educational achievement. The main objective of this activity is to conceptualise and analyse, from a comparative perspective, the effects of digital technologies on cognitive development, values and lifestyles, and educational expectations and performance, and to examine the educational responses to the emergence of this new phenomenon, both in terms of policies and practices. OECD and KERIS have planned the International Expert Seminar on ICT and educational performance aiming at exchanging experiences between researchers, developers and educational authorities and sharing the knowledge-base at international level.
