Abstract :
The purpose of this research was to study the relationship between the use of information and communication technology (ICT) in teaching and perceived educational justice and trust. The research methodology followed a descriptive correlational approach. The statistical population included all second grade students of smart schools in Isfahan during 2015–2016 (N=15,000). According to Krejcie and Morgan table, 372 individuals were randomly selected using multi-stage cluster sampling. The instruments of the research were three questionnaires: A researcher made questionnaire focusing on ICT in teaching, including 15 items (α=0.89); a questionnaire focusing on the role of ICT (computer and Internet) in ensuring educational justice, with 40 items (α=0.92); and a researcher made questionnaire focusing on educational trust, with 20 items (α=0.94). The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean and percent) and inferential statistics (Pearson’s correlation coefficient, the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test, one-sample t test, and multi-variable regression) through SPSS 20. The results revealed that the situation of ICT in teaching was above average, the situation of educational justice was slightly below average, and the situation of educational trust was also above average. Moreover, the results of the correlation coefficient revealed that there were positive and significant relationships between the use of ICT in teaching with educational justice and trust (P<0/05). The results of the multiple regressions revealed that the use of ICT in teaching and its dimensions can predict the level of educational justice and trust.
