ICT refers to technologies used to transmit, store, create, display, share or exchange information electronically. This includes technologies like radio, TV, phones, computers, and services like videoconferencing and email. Information technology is the study, design, development, implementation, support or management of computer-based information systems, particularly software applications and computer hardware. When implementing ICT in education, important considerations include educational goals, professional development, student-to-computer ratio, connectivity, physical space, electrical system, and technical support.
