According to a 2019 survey, the only subject grade 6-12 students predominantly used digital learning tools for learning was computer science/information technology, with 66 percent of students surveyed stating that they used digital learning tools for the entire class. All other subjects surveyed 10 percent or less on the same metric.
Note the time students spend learning for a subject with digital tools was differentiated in the survey from the time teachers spent teaching with digital learning tools. For almost all subjects, the time spent teaching with digital tools was higher than the time spent learning.
In a 2019 survey, 23 percent of grade 6-12 students reported that their teacher spent all of the class using digital learning technologies to teach in science, math, and history/social studies. All of these were significantly below computer science/information technology though, with 60 percent of surveyed students stating that they were taught using digital learning tools for the entire class.
Note the time teachers spend teaching a subject with digital tools was differentiated in the survey from the time students spent learning with digital learning tools. For almost all subjects, the time spent learning with digital tools was lower than the time spent teaching.
