The purpose of the study was to analyze the teacher education and training program of Pakistan for ICT-integration. It was hypothesized that there is a possibility to integrate Information and Communication Technology in teacher education and training program of Pakistan. It is a case study with the objective to analyze the teacher education program of Pakistan for the possibility to integrate-Information and Communication Technology through Open and Distance Learning. The sample comprised of all students of M.Ed Distance Education Program of University of Peshawar enrolled in session 2013. The data was collected through a self-made three point rating scale comprising 58 factorized statements. The collected data was analyzed by computing percentages and applying chi square for interpretation of significance and inference. The results of study revealed that there is possibility of ICT-integration with teacher education especially through Open and Distance Learning System but there are threats and challenges also to be faced and resolved for this purpose. The results revealed need for a policy framework, revision of objectives, whole school Information and Communication Technology literacy campaign, introduction of Information and Communication Technology at all levels of schooling, training of educators, development of curricula and training modules, presentation, production and development of e-content, resolving the issues of connectivity, power crisis, religious conflicts, developing and utilizing existing infrastructure, developing curricula at all levels of schooling for ICT-infusion. The study recommends commitment to resolve issues, face threats and converting these threats and challenges to opportunities in teacher education of Pakistan through Open and Distance Learning System.

Even though open and distance learning (ODL) using Information and Communication Technologies can be applied across disciplines and at various levels, this paper focuses on the supervision of PhD students studying through the Open and Distance Learning mode of education using Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). Taking into account the fact that higher education institutions are always striving to increase the quality of supervision and throughput of doctoral programmes, the study highlights how Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) can mitigate these challenges. The study was carried out in 10 Zimbabwean universities to evaluate the levels of preparedness of universities, supervisors and PhD students in using information and communication technology during their studies. Purposive sampling was used focusing on PhD students studying through ODL, local universities offering PhD programmes experienced, PhD supervisors, the Zimbabwe Council for Higher Education officials and officials from the Ministry of Higher and Tertiary Education, Science and Technology Development. Students, universities and supervisors were not fully prepared to do their work using ICTs due to various reasons. Some of the reasons given were that some universities did not have the required infrastructure and facilities in place. Some of the supervisors and students lacked basic computer skills and this affected the quality of supervision and slowness in giving feedback. The lack of internet availability and poor connectivity were also cited as challenges especially with the prevailing load shedding. The study recommends universities to invest in ICTs infrastructure since higher education transcends geographical boundaries.

Open And Distance Learning

Utilization of information and communication technology (ICT) in open and distance education is very important. Universitas Terbuka (UT-The Indonesia Open University) gradually began developing and using ICT applications for a variety of purposes, both academic and administrative. In the academic services, UT provides learning materials specifically designed for independent learning. The students can using learning materials provided by UT through the internet such as online tutorial (tuton), web supplement, internet television (I-TV), and online exercise independent (LM-Online). The objectives of the research were: (i) to describe students attitude for using information and communication technology in open and distance learning, and (ii) to describe the relationship between the students characteristics with their attitude for using information and communication technology in open and distance learning. This research was conducted with the survey methods and observations in the Regional Office (UPBJJ-UT) in Serang dan Bengkulu. The 52 students samples were randomly selected as respondents. The data were analyzed through Spearman rank correlation test. The result showed students attitude for using information and communication technology in open and distance learning is pretty good. The result showed educational students background were significantly correlated with their attitude for using web supplement and I-TV. A student region of residence were significantly correlated with their attitude for using I-TV. There was also a significant correlation between the availability of internet facilities and computer ownership with their attitudes for using tuton, web supplement and I-TV. Pemanfaatan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi ( TIK ) dalam pendidikan terbuka dan jarak jauh sangat penting. Universitas Terbuka (UT) secara bertahap mulai mengembangkan dan menggunakan aplikasi ICT untuk berbagai keperluan, baik akademik dan administratif. Dalam pelayanan akademik, UT menyediakan bahan ajar yang dirancang khusus untuk belajar mandiri. Para mahasiswa dapat menggunakan bahan pembelajaran yang diberikan oleh UT melalui internet seperti tutorial secara online (Tuton), suplemen web , televisi internet (I- TV), dan latihan mandiri online (LM - Online). Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah: (1) untuk menggambarkan sikap mahasiswa untuk menggunakan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi dalam pembelajaran terbuka dan jarak jauh, dan (2) untuk menggambarkan hubungan antara karakteristik mahasiswa dengan sikap mereka dalam menggunakan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi pada media pembelajaran terbuka dan jarak jauh. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan metode survei dan pengamatan di Kantor Wilayah (UPBJJ-UT) di Serang dan Bengkulu. Sampel sebanyak 52 mahasiswa dipilih secara acak sebagai responden. Data dianalisis melalui uji korelasi Rank Spearman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sikap mahasiswa menggunakan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi dalam pembelajaran terbuka dan jarak cukup bagus. Selanjutnya hasil penelitian menunjukkan latar belakang pendidikan mahasiswa secara signifikan berkorelasi dengan sikap mereka untuk menggunakan suplemen web dan I-TV. Tempat tinggal mahasiswa secara signifikan berkorelasi dengan sikap mereka untuk menggunakan I- TV. Ada juga hubungan yang signifikan antara ketersediaan fasilitas internet dan kepemilikan komputer dengan sikap mereka untuk menggunakan Tuton , suplemen web dan I- TV .
