Abstract:
The globalization and the trend towards a
knowledge-based economy emphasize the importance of using
Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and elearning
concepts in education. Currently many countries
trying to adapt ICT in many aspects of their education
systems. But in many cases, we hear that those attempts
become failures due to various reasons such as poor
infrastructure, lack of basic ICT knowledge, high cost in
implementing the system for the first time in a country etc.
This literature review focuses on how we can use ICT
successfully in education.
As our research topic is Effectiveness of using ICT in
education, we studied some of the current systems used in
various countries, the pros and cons of those available
systems and the solutions they provided for the problems they
have faced so far. Our view on those problems and solutions
are discussed at the latter part of this paper.
