Abstract

The increasing availability of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) presents teachers with exciting opportunities to transform pedagogical practices. In many parts of southern Asia, specially, in India, students are from rural background where the teaching aids limited. This will affect the quality of English language understanding in higher learning. The demand for teachers to integrate ICT into their teaching and learning programs is high and places additional pressures on teachers in an already challenging profession. The pervasive nature of ICT in daily life has made society reliant on systems and tools that provide challenges for the way people think and work. This paper presents the detailed analysis of factors affecting the use of ICT in education. The results provided in this study will be helpful for the teachers, academicians and policy makers to frame a policy to improve the understanding of English language and its effective delivery.
