What is ICT?

One useful definition comes from Pisapia (1994) who borrowing from earlier definitions, states: Integrating technology with teaching means the use of learning technologies to introduce, reinforce, supplement and extend skills…. The difference between the classrooms of exemplary user of technology and technology user is the way their classes are conducted. In the exemplary classrooms, student use of computers is woven integrally into patterns of teaching; software is natural extension of student tools… For example, if a teacher merely tells student to read a book without any preparation for followup activities that put the book in pedagogical context; the book is un-integrated. If a teacher uses the computer to reward children by allowing them to play a game, the computer is unintegrated.
