ICT is a generic term referring to technologies, which are being used for collecting, storing, editing and passing on information in various forms. Information and Communication Technologies, (ICT’s) are one of the major contemporary factors shaping the global economy and producing rapid changes in society. ICT have fundamentally changed the way of learning, communicating, and business. ICT can transform the nature of education where and how learning takes place and the roles of students and teachers in the teaching learning process. ICT has the potential to enhance access, quality and effectiveness in education in general and to enable the development of more and better teachers in particular. A personal computer is the best known example of the use of the ICT in education, but the term multimedia is also frequently used. Multimedia can be interpreted as a combination of data carriers, for example video, CD-ROM, Floppy disc and internet and software in which the possibility for an interactive approach is followed. The existence of ICTs does not transform teacher practices in and of itself. However, ICTs can enable teachers to transform their teacher practices, given a set of enabling conditions. Teachers’ pedagogical practices and reasoning influence their uses of ICT, and the nature of teacher ICT use impacts student achievement. ICTs are seen as important tools to enable and support the move from traditional ‘teacher-centric’ teaching styles to more ‘learner-centric’ methods. Pedagogical practices of teachers using ICT can range from only small enhancements of teaching practices using what are essentially traditional methods changes, to more fundamental changes in their approach to teaching. ICTs can be used to reinforce existing pedagogical practices as well as to change the way teachers and students interact.
