Ministry Trains Global Leaders in Educational ICT in Hands with the World Bank
"ICT for Education Leaders: From Vision to Reality," a new course offering on ICT and Education, took place on November 12~16, 2007 in Seoul, Korea, under the co-host of the Korean Ministry of Education & Human Resources Development and the World Bank Institute.
Organized by the Korean Education Research and Information Service(KERIS), with partnership support from InfoDev and UNESCO-Bangkok, the new initiative brought together around 40 mid-level government officials and educational experts from 23 developing countries, to explore how a country's education system and policies can be enriched through the application of advanced information and communications technologies. The special course came as an effort to help policy makers identify the imperatives that traditional education systems are facing, by raising awareness and understanding about the essential elements of effective ICT integration. For the participants, the course also offered venue to co-address the issue of the worldwide digital divide, and develop partnerships towards bridging the different speed sand levels of knowledge and information development.

Over the weeklong course, policy makers introduced their own country's experience of ICT use in education policy and its implementation. They attended a series of expert lectures that introduced key related concepts including leadership, institutions, public-private partnerships, monitoring and evaluation, and ICT integration at different educational levels.
Participants then formed groups to discuss strategy formulation and implementation, by sharing concrete case studies and making field visits to various institutions including the state Educational Broadcasting System, Korea Telecom, KERIS, Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education and schools. Finally, each participant had the opportunity to get full feedback on his/her country-specific action plan on integrating ICT into education. The intensive training course is expected to have not only provided policy makers with a broad yet detailed overview of what to expect in the field of educational ICT in terms of challenges, opportunities, costs and benefits, but also paved way for sustainable knowledge sharing and networking across regions.
