This paper examines an experiment carried out in the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in Education module of a post-graduate programme of Education and Curriculum in one academic term for a group of student-researchers using a Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning environment. The study is based on questionnaires completed by the student- researchers. The aim of this paper is to examine the use of ICT in teaching and learning processes in the light of the student-researchers’ practices by applying a constructivist perspective to the use of ICT in Education.
