Abstract

The study evaluated the implementation of the Special Program for Information and Communication Technology (SP-ICT). Two hundred seventy teachers and forty-six school heads involve in the implementation of the program for the last three years served as respondents. Data were gathered by using a questionnaire. Data were statistically analyzed to determine what variables predict the extent on the implementation of the special program for ICT. Results revealed that the older the teacher, the more they are likely to be ready in the implementation of the SP-ICT as far as instructional supervision, manpower and learning resources are concerned. Young school heads with low educational backgrounds were found to have equipped with modern day technological knowledge and application. School and teachers’ readiness in the implementation of SP-ICT were significantly correlated. Their readiness was significantly correlated to the extent of implementation of SP-ICT in terms of planning and implementation. Furthermore, research found out that technological knowledge and technological pedagogical knowledge were statistically significant predictors of planning the implementation of SP-ICT.
