Abstract
This short country report, a result of
larger Information for Development Program
(infoDev)-supported survey of Information and Communication
Technologies (ICT) in education in Africa, provides a
general overview of current activities and issues related to
ICT use in education in the country. Ghana is in the process
of finalizing its ICTs in education policy, due to be ready
by the end of the first quarter of 2007. Despite the
uncoordinated approach to policy in the past, significant
progress has been made in increasing access to and usage of
ICTs in the education sector. The tertiary sector is the
most advanced in ICT deployment, followed by the secondary
and primary/basic education sectors respectively. Overall
there is much optimism for huge advances once the policy
implementation begins.
