This document discusses the role of technology in education. It defines ICT as information communication technology, which applies technologies that expose students to knowledge through digital means like the internet, computers, and more. ICT helps make learning more student-centered by exposing students to different information and methods of learning. It also allows learning to become more interactive and innovative. E-learning through ICT provides benefits like access to learning from anywhere at any time. ICT supports education in schools by enhancing audio-visual learning, collaborating learning, and providing access to knowledge sources. However, shortcomings of ICT in education include issues with student and teacher acceptance and behavior change, high costs, and lack of infrastructure and device provisioning.
