Application of Information Communication Technology at Secondary School Level and Its Practices
At this point, it is a well-established fact that information and communications technology (ICT) is the most valuable source of power and attractiveness behind all types of knowledge-driven businesses worldwide. The availability of good, well-organized, well-equipped computer labs and highly-trained and dedicated ICT professionals in a variety of subjects inside the educational institution is an indispensable condition for the professional application of ICT in several societal areas. Specifically, this study aims to investigate the use and acceptability of information and communication technology (ICT) in secondary schools throughout the Punjab province. Participants included high school teachers as well as students from different regions of Punjab province. The study findings investigated the constraints and flaws in the implementation of the information technology program. It also shows that other challenges, such as power outages, can obstruct students from achieving their educational objectives.
