This timely analysis brings greater clarity to the question of
how ICT-supported innovations are experienced in small low- to
middle-income countries and developing regions with implications
for international education and development. By bringing together
a group of international technologists, researchers, and
scholars, this book explores the building of local capacity for
educational technology policy and application in such regions and
ably links theory to practice to illuminate how the issues at
hand play out in professional practice. The volume offers itself
as an invaluable resource by offering a salient assessment of the
existent methodological and ecological challenges and constraints
in developing, implementing, and evaluating technology and
technology research, while simultaneously providing
recommendations and strategy for future policy and
implementation.

ICT-Supported Innovations in Small Countries and Developing
Regions is of significant interest to educational technology
researchers, policymakers, and officials with influence over
resource allocation and implementation of technology innovations.
It is also relevant to administrators, teachers, instructional
designers, and technology evaluators interested in advancing
educational communications and technology in public and private
settings.
