Abstract

 This study sets out to examine the extent to which schools use ICT in teaching disciplines across the curriculum: it explores the tools and methods being currently used in teaching and learning, and the extent to which such methods are aligned with the goals set by the government ICT initiatives. Similarly, the study aims to identify any particular organizational and individual features that may affect the level of ICT use in learning and teaching, and seeks to explore whether and how ICT is being implemented by schools and teachers. More specifically, the effects of variables such as attitudes, experience, and training on ICT use in teaching and learning will be investigated. With respect to the government ICT initiatives, GENIE, NAFIDA, Maroc Numeric, INJAZ, and MARWAN, the aim is to briefly describe how their initiation and implementation are taking place, and how they have affected the educational practice thus far. It is not the aim of this study to assess these projects because they are still at the beginning phases of implementation.  The central question this study tries to answer is whether and how computers are being used in the classroom environment and why. Besides, there are other major questions to be addressed by the study, such as: 1. To what extent do the demographic and socio-economic factors affect access to computers and the internet?   2. How does access to computers and the internet affect ICT use in teaching and learning? 3. How do attitudes towards computers affect ICT use in education?  4. To what extent does school ICT infrastructure contribute to increased ICT use in education? 5. To what extent does ICT training contribute to increased ICT use in education?

Keyphrases: Education and change, ICT and school reform in Morocco, ICT use in education
