Different Cultures Make Very Different Use of ICT

Different Cultures Make Very Different Use of ICT (.doc): "Much can be learned from teacher training institutions in well-to-do Western countries that efficiently and effectively utilize ICT in teaching and learning, management and administration. But it is not always possible to implement the same practices in classrooms where the culture, infrastructure and other factors are completely different. This paper suggests that it is important to consider how learning environments differ in terms of culture and to examine how the needs of teachers and students may differ from country to country."
