Locating and identifying the uses of
information and communication technologies (ICTs) to benefit
education in developing countries is a tedious, difficult,
time-consuming, and ad hoc task. No standard reference or
methodology exists for identifying such investments.
Observations and conclusions on how ICTs are actually used
in schools are drawn almost exclusively from Organization
for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) experience.
Little such data exists for least development countries
LDCs, and essentially none for countries most at risk of
meeting education-related Millennium Development Goals
(MDGs). Emerging evidence from OECD countries suggests that
even massive investments in ICTs in schools may not bring
about the desired changes in teaching and learning processes
unless such investments are supported by similar initiatives
to improve access to ICTs outside of the school environment.
This may be especially important for uses of ICTs to support
education for all (EFA) goals, as effective use in school
may require high levels of access outside school if gains in
such investments are to be maximized, especially where ICTs
are to be used for communication purposes. |
