This short country report, a result of
larger Information for Development Program (infoDev) -
supported survey of the 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. Senegal's hand on
commitment to incorporating ICT in education is still in the
beginning stages of progress and evaluation. Although
Senegal's public officials and government bodies
recognize ICT as a powerful engine for progress in economic
expansion and modernization and have a national ICT policy
in place, it has not yet been integrated into the education
sector in any kind of formal policy. However, the Ministry
of Education and several organizations have taken
initiatives to launch and continue activities that will
facilitate the modernization of schools and other
educational institutions. Initiatives have also been made in
the informal sector, such as the United Nations Educational,
Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Community
Multimedia Center Scale-Up Project, to make ICT accessible
to community members. Although obstacles remain, such as the
need for more telecommunications infrastructure and computer
materials, the outlook for integrating ICT into
Senegal's education system is very optimistic. |
