Abstract

The student-teacher relationship is an important component of both students' and teachers' development. Today, technology-rich learning environments offer opportunities that might change these relationships. This paper presents findings from six studies of teacher-student relationships in the one-to-one computing classroom (and another study that refers to distance teaching). Taken together, those studies—that were carried out in Israel between 2014–2016 using both qualitative and quantitative methodologies, with a combined N=238 teachers—highlight various improvements in student-teacher relationships. Overall, it is argued that one-to-one computing programs drive some important changes in teaching/learning strategies, and that these changes affect student-teacher relationships positively.
