Excerpted from the infoDev publication, Monitoring and Evaluation of ICT in Education Projects: A Handbook for Developing Countries.

Executive Summary

  • Good management is essential for the successful
    implementation of monitoring and evaluation activities in
    the field of ICT4E.
  • Monitoring and evaluation activities themselves also have
    a significant infl uence on educational management and
    enhanced capacity building in poor countries.
  • These intertwined themes need to be carefully understood and negotiated if ICT4E programs are to be implemented successfully.
  • Above all, it is essential for all those involved in teaching and learning to adopt appropriate monitoring and evaluation processes to ensure the successfully delivery of their aspirations.
