Abstract：
The major purpose of this study was to develop indicators of measuring digital divide for elementary and secondary schools by probing into related references to establish hierarchical structure of indicators and referring to expert’s suggestions to revise indicators. Indicators proposed by this study were composed of four dimensions, namely, information infrastructure, information literacy, e-learning, and e-service. To verify the validity of the indicators, 32 experts in the related areas were invited to evaluate the relevancy of indicators. After removing 3 unsuitable indicators and rewording some, 55 indicators were suggested by the experts. Analytic Hierarchy Process was used then to calculate the weights of the indicators at purpose and basis level. Finally, 55 indicators with weights and a “score sheet” for measuring digital divide at elementary and secondary schools were proposed. Results of this study can be a valuable reference for both governments and schools to establish or modify the policies of diminishing digital divide.
