dc.descriptionDevelopment of the ICT in Education Policy and Strategy for Saint Lucia 2017–2020 was facilitated by the Commonwealth of Learning (COL), Canada. COL is an intergovernmental organisation created by the Commonwealth Heads of Government to promote the development and sharing of open learning and distance education knowledge, resources and technologies.
dc.description.abstractThe development of the policy reflects a strategic partnership between the Ministry of Education (MOE) and the Commonwealth of Learning (COL). The policy is organised into several sections. The background and policy context in Section 1 provides the rationale for the need for an ICTE policy for Saint Lucia. It is widely accepted that the desired educational outcomes in the 21st century have significant implications for the role of ICTE and that countries choosing to ignore this reality do so at their peril. It is inconceivable that effective education in a digital age can take place without leveraging the capability of ICT. The 2015–2020 Education Sector Development Plan for Saint Lucia, cognisant of such a reality, calls for an expanded role for ICTE as a tool to improve educational outcomes for learners and as a means of improving efficiencies throughout the education system. Section 2 outlines what is referred to as the policy success model (PSM). The PSM articulates the guiding philosophy of ICTE, including vision, mission and values. Section 3 outlines the strategic framework for the ICTE policy, describes the strategic policy priority areas (PPAs) and enablers, and presents a policy strategy map as a logic model. The strategic policy results, including seven policy priority areas (Gender Equity, Special Needs Learners, STEM Disciplines, Early Childhood Education, TVET, Digital Citizenship and Community Development), are outlined in Section 4. The policy results are otherwise known as policy objectives, and the initiatives are also known as policy statements.
