This study examined the attitudes of Arab dropout youth toward the use of computer technology and the influence of this use on their self-esteem. Previous studies of attitudes toward e-learning in populations of lower socioeconomic levels found that the tendency to reject this type of learning grew when the developmental level of the student's environment and access to computers was lower. Studies have also shown a significant relationship between owning a computer or using one and having positive attitudes toward using it. Therefore, the main assumptions were that exposure to computer technology would change the attitudes of dropout adolescents toward computers to positive ones. Additionally, it would enhance their self-esteem, making it higher than that of their peers who had no e-learning experience. The results supported the assumptions in most of the attitude factors and in the self-esteem questionnaire. Findings indicate the possibilities inherent in providing computer studies to dropout adolescents. Such studies act to change their attitude toward the computer, and to enhance their self-esteem. |
