摘要:Information and communication technologies (ICTs) can be most strong enabler in efforts to bring positive and sustainable development in all the countries of the world. Evidence from large studies and meta-analysis suggests that use of ICTs, in particular computer technologies, is correlated to positive academic outcomes, including higher test scores, better attitudes towards studies, and better understanding of concepts and ideas. For better performance in traditional measures of academic achievements, a secondary benefit of ICTs in higher education is to introduce new generations with the technologies that have become important components of the modern world. ICTs provide new ideas to students and teachers with which way to learn and teach for development. We have to highlight the needs for policy that gives a vision and frame work for using ICTs within the higher education system. This paper aims to present the current state of how ICTs is being used in higher education and how this policy is beneficial for development and how it can better benefit current and future users. Keywords: Information and Communication Technology Policy, Development, Quality Improvement.
