Farrell, Glen2012-08-132012-08-132007-04https://hdl.handle.net/10986/10707This 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. Kenya has made remarkable progress putting in place an ICT policy framework and implementation strategy, complete with measurable outcomes and time frames. The process has had the benefit of sound advice from officials and stakeholders and, perhaps more importantly, strong leadership from the office of the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Education. However, universal implementation is challenging given the lack of resources, national ICT infrastructure, and even electrical supply - particularly in the rural areas.CC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO PRIMARY EDUCATIONACCESS TO QUALITY HIGHER EDUCATIONACCESS TO SECONDARY EDUCATIONACCESS TO THE INTERNETADOPTION OF ICTADULT LITERACYADULT LITERACY RATEAFFORDABLE ACCESSAFFORDABLE COSTBACKBONEBANDWIDTHBANDWIDTH CAPACITYBROADBANDBROADCASTCAPACITY-BUILDINGCIVIL SOCIETYCOMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGYCOMPUTER EQUIPMENTCOMPUTER RATIOCOMPUTER SKILLSCOMPUTERSCOMPUTERS IN EDUCATIONCOMPUTERS IN SCHOOLSCONNECTIVITYCONTENT INTEGRATIONCURRICULUM CONTENTDEDICATED PHONEDIGITAL CONTENTDIGITAL DATADIGITAL DIVIDEDIGITAL EQUIPMENTDISSEMINATION OF KNOWLEDGEDISTANCE EDUCATIONDISTANCE LEARNINGDISTANCE LEARNING MATERIALSE-GOVERNMENTE-GOVERNMENT INITIATIVEE-LEARNINGE-MAILE-READINESSECONOMIC ACTIVITYEDUCATION ACTIVITIESEDUCATION DATAEDUCATION FOR ALLEDUCATION POLICYEDUCATION PROJECTSEDUCATION REFORMSEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION SERVICESEDUCATION STRATEGYEDUCATION SYSTEMEDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENTEDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONSEDUCATIONAL NEEDSELEARNINGELECTRICITYETHNIC LANGUAGESFEMALE PARTICIPATIONFIBRE OPTICFREE SOFTWAREFULL ACCREDITATIONGENDER EQUITYGENERAL POPULATIONGOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONSGOVERNMENT POLICIESHIGHER EDUCATIONHIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONSHIGHER EDUCATION SECTORHIGHER LEARNINGHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCEHUMAN RESOURCE CAPACITYHUMAN RESOURCESICTIDIMPLEMENTATION PLANIMPLEMENTATION PLANSIMPLEMENTATION STRATEGYIMPLEMENTING AGENCIESINFORMATION EXCHANGEINFORMATION NETWORKINFORMATION SHARINGINFORMATION TECHNOLOGYINFRASTRUCTURE ACCESSINSTITUTIONINTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERLANLEADERSHIPLEARNING CURRICULUMLEARNING MATERIALSLEARNING OPPORTUNITIESLEARNING RESOURCESLECTURERSLICENSESLIMITED ACCESSLITERACY RATEMARKETINGMASS MEDIAMINISTRY OF EDUCATIONMOBILE PHONEMOBILE PHONESMOBILE TELEPHONESNETWORK INFRASTRUCTURENETWORKSNEW TECHNOLOGIESNON-FORMAL EDUCATIONNUMBER OF SCHOOLSOPEN LEARNINGPARTICIPATION RATESPDFPHONEPHONE LINESPOLICY FRAMEWORKPOLYTECHNICSPOSTAL SERVICESPRIMARY ENROLMENTPRIMARY LEVELPRIMARY SCHOOLINGPRIMARY SCHOOLSPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPSPRIVATE SECTORPROCUREMENTPROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENTPROFESSORSPUBLIC INSTITUTIONSPUBLIC SCHOOLSQUALITY ASSURANCEQUALITY OF TEACHINGRADIORADIO STATIONSRESOURCE CENTRERESULTRURAL AREASSANITATIONSCHOOL BROADCASTINGSCHOOL CURRICULASCHOOL HEADSCHOOL SYSTEMSCHOOLSSEARCHSEARCH ENGINESECONDARY SCHOOLSSERVICE TRAININGSITESSKILL DEVELOPMENTSUPERMARKETTEACHERTEACHER TRAININGTEACHER-TRAINING COLLEGESTEACHERSTEACHINGTEACHING RESOURCESTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETECHNICAL SUPPORTTECHNICAL TRAININGTECHNICAL TRAINING INSTITUTIONSTELECOMMUNICATIONTELECOMMUNICATIONSTELEPHONETELEPHONE LINESTELEVISIONTERTIARY EDUCATIONTERTIARY INSTITUTIONTERTIARY INSTITUTIONSTERTIARY LEVELSTERTIARY SECTORTIME FRAMESTRAINING INSTITUTESUNIVERSITIESUNIVERSITY · FUNDINGUSERSVIRTUAL INSTITUTIONSVIRTUAL UNIVERSITIESVSATWEBWEB SITEYOUTHWorld Bank10.1596/10707
