If we look at the list then it seems like the outcome is better ICT skills of teahers, at least they list up more software and/or apps and often let students use there Smart phones in class. At the beginning the majority of participants thought that computer technoology has a positive impact on teaching and students´ learning and at the end there belief was even stronger.  
More teachers feel the need to change their current teaching methods (now 68,4% compared to 58,3% at the beginning). They think there is always room for improvement and learning from other teachers is an influence. Also, they think the students use different approach to studying and the new technology gives new opportunities.

Society has changed and technology has changed so they think it is importand to keep up with the new learning tools, apps and platforms. IT as it is is the way of the world today and that is the way to engage students.
