Abstract (Original Language):
Education in the Indian region faces a number of problems. These problems include the
shortage of qualified teachers, very large student populations, high drop-out rates of
students and teachers, and weak curriculum. All of these negative aspects result in poor
delivery of education. The education crisis is worsened by the devastating effects of the
HIV/AIDS pandemic, increasing poverty, a brain drain in the teaching community,
budgetary constraints, poor communication, and inadequate infrastructure.
While societies in the region undergo rapid changes as a result of increased access to
information, the majority of the school-going youth continue to undergo traditional rote
learning. ICTs are one of the major contemporary factors shaping the global economy
and producing rapid changes in society. They have fundamentally changed the way
people learn, communicate, and do business.
