Abstract

This paper describes the rationale for sustainable deployment of Information, Communication and Technology (ICT) in learning environment of Higher Education (HE) institutions with a specific focus on the Developing Economy (DE). Effective integration of ICT depends on the way it is deployed, positioned and sustained. ICT would facilitate and improve students’ knowledge and promote positive learning attitude. Decision makers need to provide proactive support in the usage of ICT and E-learning in HE settings. If DE students are to compete with their counterparts in the developed world, effort must be made to develop their ICT abilities in a sustainable manner. Sadly, many HE institutions in DE have invested heavily in the use of ICT but its benefits are yet to be manifested. Choosing a sustainable teaching and learning methods is never a passive process; stakeholders are expected to provide additional ICT skills given the complex dynamics of the job market and the increasing needs for multi-tasking workforce. Various methodological approaches, personal development and supportive learning environment are mandatory for sustaining HE development in the DE.
