In the article, we describe first how national strategies regarding education in the information society and the implementation of these strategies have promoted the use of ICT in the Finnish education sector. The authors then present an overview of the Finnish education system. Thereafter, we move into pedagogical studies in Biology and Geography in the University of Oulu. Finally, we discuss, based on a case study in Northern Finland, the conceptions, experiences and attitudes of senior high school and university students on eLearning in Biology and Geography. </style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">55-68</style></section></record></records></xml>
