Klíčová slova: attitudes, information and communication technologies, biology, students, questionnaire

The impact of information and communication technologies and computers on our daily lives has been steadily increasing. This fact influences the change of attitudes toward information and communication technologies. In our contribution we focused on finding the differences between genders according to computer attitudes. A questionnaire with 33 Likert type items was used in our research. The sample consists of 518 students from 9 high schools. Data were evaluated with factor analysis, ANOVA, Pearson's chi-square test, Pearson's product moment and for finding out reliability of questionnaire we used Cronbach's alpha. The results of the questionnaire were divided into five dimensions in the concrete 1. The positive influence of ICT; 2. The negative influence of ICT; 3. Advantages of ICT; 4. ICT used in biology lesson; 5. Disadvantages of ICT. Totally, boys have more positive attitudes than girls.
