Description
Information and communication technology (ICT) has become a cornerstone of modern education, reshaping how knowledge is accessed, delivered, and understood across the globe. As countries invest in building independent digital infrastructures, ICT serves not only as a tool for learning but also as a strategic driver of national development and digital sovereignty. It enhances connectivity between people, institutions, and governments, while simultaneously transforming educational practices and democratizing access to knowledge. In the post-globalization era, ICT influences cultural exchange and educational equity, highlighting its dual role as both a unifying and differentiating force in global education systems.
Value of ICTs in Facilitating Educational Development and Reform explores the role of ICT in education from an anthropological perspective, addressing its impact on teaching, learning, infrastructure, and globalization. It also takes a retrospective look at the changes that have occurred since the launch of Web 2.0, with the aim of making the internet more accessible and affordable for average users. Covering topics such as artificial intelligence, higher education, and post-globalization, this book is an excellent resource for researchers, academicians, policymakers, administrators, and more.
