【 摘 要 】

This short country report, a result oflarger Information for Development Program (infoDev) -supported survey of the Information and CommunicationTechnologies (ICT) in education in Africa, provides ageneral overview of current activities and issues related toICT use in education in the country. As a country recoveringfrom a devastating civil war that destroyed itsinfrastructure, Sierra Leone has huge gaps in both ICTpolicy-making and implementation both at the national andeducational levels. An ICT policy has still not beenfinalized, and the education sector has no systematic policyof integrating ICTs at all levels. There seems, however, tobe a strong governmental will to make ICT a core componentof its education reforms.
