Information and Communication Technology (ICT) was initially anticipated to serve as a means of improving efficiency in the educational development. Numerous research and development has been conducted in order to bring ICT to its present state of art. In addition it has been revealed that the use of ICT in education can help perk up memory retention, generally intensify understanding, and increase motivation. ICT can also be used to encourage collaborative learning, as well as role playing, group problem solving activities and articulated projects. Commonly ICT is about promoting new strategies to working and learning, and new ways of interacting. Accordingly, the introduction of ICT into United Kingdom (UK) and United States (US) schools has provoked a mass of new questions about the developing nature of pedagogy.
