Summary: | 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. As a country recovering
from a devastating civil war that destroyed its
infrastructure, Sierra Leone has huge gaps in both ICT
policy-making and implementation both at the national and
educational levels. An ICT policy has still not been
finalized, and the education sector has no systematic policy
of integrating ICTs at all levels. There seems, however, to
be a strong governmental will to make ICT a core component
of its education reforms. |
