CLUSTER ANALYSIS OF PC ENDOWMENT IN PRE-UNIVERSITY EDUCATION AT ROMANIAN COUNTIES LEVEL

Abstract

In the contemporary world, ICT has become omnipresent. Not only the younger generation, but also the other categories of the population uses it in their daily activity, on the one hand. On the other hand, however, in many counties, the education and, especially, the pre-university education remained deficient regarding the endowment of schools with personal computers (PCs) and other ICT. Based on this observation, this paper analyses the endowment with PCs of pre-university educational institutions at county level and their grouping by the average number of existing PCs. The paper emphasizes the major differences that exist between counties, in this regard.
