10 Key Principles for
Implementing ICT in
Education
1. Use ICT to Achieve Education and
Development Goals
• Technology should be used to address areas
where system capacity is poor, schools are
underperforming or there are gaps in student
learning. A well-designed technology solution
can be used to disseminate resources,
connect students to information, enhance
teachers’ practices and students’ performance
in all subject areas, improve school
management and support data-driven
policymaking.
1. Use ICT to
Achieve
Education and
Development
Goals
2. Use ICT to Enhance Student Knowledge and
Skills
• If schooling is intended to be relevant to

work and important to a society, success in
school should be accompanied by the
development of a broad body of knowledge
and a complete range of skills—including
literacy, numeracy, information literacy and
independent-learning skills that contribute
to achievement in later life. ICT should be
used to help students build these skills.
2. Use ICT to
Enhance
Student
Knowledge
and Skills
3. Use ICT to Support Data-driven Decision
Making
• Regular and reliable data are

essential to planning and policy,
financial management, management
of school facilities, decisions about
school personnel (including teachers)
and support for student learning.

Support
Data-driven
Decision
Making
4. Include All Short- and Longer-term Costs in
Budget Planning
• Estimating full capital and operating

expenses of technology projects in schools
requires consideration of all equipment and
activities needed to ensure that hardware
(and software) are installed, operated,
maintained, repaired and replaced, and
that teachers and other personnel have the
skills and resources they need to use their
new tools to meet project goals.
4. Include
All Short-
and Longer-
term Costs
in Budget
Planning
5. Explore Technology Alternatives to Find
Appropriate Solutions
• The proliferation of new tools and new
approaches is accelerating in both developed
and developing countries; these innovations
challenge project developers to think
creatively about emerging opportunities.
Program designers should consider alternative
ways of meeting proposed educational
objectives, including broadcast or other
technologies, low-cost/low-power computers,
and mobile telephones.
5. Explore
Technology
Alternatives to
Find
Appropriate
Solutions
6. Focus on Teacher Development, Training and
Ongoing Support
• In-service teacher professional

development is frequently among the
most important and complex
components in an education-
technology project. Teachers are
essential to student learning
outcomes.

Teacher
Development,
Training and
Ongoing
Support
7. Explore and Coordinate Involvement of Many Different
Stakeholders
• It is vital to engage multiple stakeholders in
education technology projects, as they
frequently cut across several sectors and entail
great expense as well as technical and
organizational complexity. Valuable
contributions can be made by international and
local organizations, including donor agencies,
charitable foundations, NGOs, private-sector
technology firms and government agencies, in
addition to ministries of education.
7. Explore
and
Coordinate
Involvement
of Many
Different
Stakeholders
8. Develop a Supportive Policy Environment
• Establishing policies, plans, and

central agencies to shape the use of
technology in education can help
ensure that initial expenditures and
activities support government
objectives and that high-impact
activities receive ongoing funding.
8. Develop a
Supportive
Policy
Environment
9. Integrate Monitoring and Evaluation into Project
Planning
• Planning (and budgeting) for monitoring and
evaluation of education-technology projects
should begin during the first phase of project
design. In most circumstances, it is important to
emphasize using randomized studies and
experimental statistics; such methods typically
require collecting baseline data or collecting data
from control-group samples. Advanced planning,
budgeting and preparation are essential if these
measures are to be put in place.
9. Integrate Monitoring and Evaluation into Project
Planning
10. “It takes capacity to build capacity”—
System strengthening precedes system
transformation
• Developing-country school systems rarely have
the capacity to effect substantial change in
teaching, learning or school operations—
whether technology is used or not. Schools
and school systems that lack basic levels of
management, leadership, teacher
professionalism, resources and other core
components must build the stable foundation
needed for the equitable and effective delivery
of public education.
10. “It takes
capacity to
build
capacity”—
System
strengthening
precedes
system
transformation
• Technology can help teachers track and assess their
students' -- as well as their own -- performance in the
classroom. It can also be used to facilitate
communication between students and teachers and to
create digital records of student growth and
development that can easily be passed along from
grade to grade.
• 20 Digital Tools for
Classroom for
Innovative Teachers &
Students
1. Prezi
•suitable for students of all ages
•suitable for teachers
Prezi is a digital software for creating interactive
presentations. According to their research, the innovative
way in which Prezi helps you make presentations – by
zooming, leads to more effective, more persuasive, more
