The limitation of using ICT in Education.


Developing countries like Bangladesh, where the government regulation is corrupted and the regulation and enforcement of laws in the education sector are very minimal 
has many limitation of using ICT in the domain of education. the main limitations are elaborated below:

  • Lack of electricity generation
  • Low internet frequency
  • Less knowledge of the teachers.

Lack of electricity generation: Most of the time in both urban and rural area the electricity cuts off for more than 2 to 3 hours. even there are cases when the electricity has been out for whole day. In this scenario the use of ICT is very difficult and even people are reluctant to use it as it keeps on pending the work load thus electricity is a huge barrier is the development of the education sector.

Another limitation is the low frequency, the government of Bangladesh is still not aware of the importance of use of internet and how internet can enable many deprived society to be enriched and gain knowledge about many different categorical. Hence the internet penetration in Bangladesh is very low as well as the low frequency assures such low penetration

Less knowledge of the teachers: Use of ICT in the education sector inn Bangladesh will only be possible if and only if the teachers and faculty members in school, college and universities make the most use of it, where as due to lack of knowledge about its use and advantages they are reluctant to use it, resulting in a backward society.
