Subscribe/Renew Journal
As we all know, in the present world the Information and communication technologies (ICT) have become common entity in all aspects of life. Across the past twenty years the use of ICT has fundamentally changed not only in the practices and procedures of nearly all forms of endeavor within business and governance. Education is a very socially oriented activity and quality education has traditionally been associated with strong teachers having high degrees of personal contact with learners. The use of ICT in education lends itself to more student-centered learning settings. But with the world moving rapidly into digital media and information, the role of ICT in education is becoming more and more important and this importance will continue to grow and develop in the 21st century. The paper aims to the significant role of the available literature associated with ICTs for Education and ICTs in Education. Also to set out to identify and evaluate relevant strategies in national and international research and initiatives related to measuring and demonstrating the effective use of ICT in education with regard to the teaching learning process; ICT and quality and accessibility of education; ICT and learning environment, and ICT to enhance the scholastic performance.
