ICT in education

The steady change in technological advances, the information explosion, and rapid knowledge attainment is demanding a new learning environment in secondary schools. A great cause of concern, however, is the lack of use of available ICT in education. Although teachers are mostly aware of the multiple advantages of the use of ICT in teaching-learning situations, they do not implement ICT in their teaching. This lack of use of ICT in education seems to be even more of a problem in developing countries such our country. In order to address this problem, the aim is to determine the extent to which teachers in disadvantaged and privileged schools make use of ICT in their teaching. To identify possible constraints that impede the implantation of ICT and to provide recommendations to facilitate and encourage the implementation of ICT in teaching-learning environments.
