Abstract

Relatively little is known about the educational use of computers in developing countries, how their use affects educational costs, or how the costs of computer instruction are financed. This pilot study begins to fill that gap by providing the first quantitative analysis of the use of computers and of associated cost and financing issues in a sample of schools in Belize. Despite the high costs of computer instruction in Belize, computer use is quite extensive. The most surprising finding is that high costs to school providers are reduced by a wide array of cost recovery measures.
