Summary

This handbook is written to provide guidance for policymakers struggling with two key issues: (1) What is the impact on student achievement of introducing ICTs in educational settings in developing countries? (2) How should this impact be measured, and what are the related issues, especially as they relate to "Education For All" and other Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)?


Information and communication technologies (ICT) are believed by many to be important potential levers to introduce and sustain education reform efforts. This document intends to provide guidance for policy makers and donor staff regarding ICT in education projects in countries contemplating the use of ICTs to meet the education-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
