Aspects of Successful Integration of ICT in Schools

Abstract

The term ICT (Information and Communication Technology) is used to refer to the convergence of audio-visual and communication networks with computer networks through a single cabling or link system. Many studies have proven that implementing ICT in schools requires the availability of number of aspects; this paper aims at presenting these: management and leadership, financial support, digital content (the curricular), technology and network infrastructure, technical support and teachers training. These aspects represent areas requiring early consideration in the process of e-learning development which should be treated as a cycle that should be revisited throughout the project lifecycle as part of a continuous improvement strategy.
