✦ Synopsis

Developing countries try their best to articulate good policies but, many times such policies are not well implemented for various reasons. This book presents a typical example of discrepancy between policy and policy implementation in East Africa's third largest economy that is based on empirical evidence. Moreover, the book clearly highlights the intensions of the country's policy on ICT in education, examines the attempts to implement the policy, and evaluates the impact of such an implementation. Biographische Informationen Luwangula Ismail obtained his first degree in education from Makerere University in Uganda in 2005. He taught for exactly five years in several schools around the country. As he was dissatisfied with the practices of education managers around the country, he was agitated to understand education management theory at an advanced level in order to positively influence education management practices. In 2010, the author enrolled for a masters program in education management with an orientation towards education leadership and policy at the East China Normal University. He graduated in 2011. Now, the author is actively involved in education entrepreneurship and management, and further, he successfully manages Malongo ARK - PEAS High school.
