"It is impossible for a developing nation to compete with developed nations in the field of ICT integration in schools."

Interesting topic of discussion. I do believe that such a feat is attainable, however there needs to be a framework and support structures in place. One cannot underestimate the importance time plays in this regard, at it stands, developed countries are quite advanced in their use of ICT, 'now'o clock' is the time for developing countries to act. While resources may be limited, the emphasis placed on ICT by the relevant authorities, in terms of aggressively pursuing funds, equipment and training, reflects growth in achieving this deed. 

Alas, let us also recognize that its(ICT in schools) actual use and implementation will infiltrate a very sacred system that many teachers and lecturers will have known and have proven to be successful. We must understand that amidst the challenges we may face, a mindset fixated against change may be the biggest one yet.
