Abstract

Information
and Communications Technology (ICT) has a great importance in all aspects of
life, including education as well. With the fast technology progress, its
implementation in education is inevitable. This paper shows the implementation
of ICT in education, beginning with its definition, indicators, techniques and
methods of implementation, the obstacles that the implementation faces, and
some good implementation practices performed in Mathematics. All the above
mentioned aspects are described in this paper including the cycle of subject
organization through ICT, which is followed by the creation of electronic files
for teachers and students illustrated by an example of the way of organizing
these files. There is also discussed for the lesson planning in Mathematics
using available applications for each teacher in the R. of Macedonia. This
research covers the teachers of the R. of Macedonia of different ages which
come both from elementary and high schools. We show the level of Information
and Communications Technology usage in education; the obstacles for not
implementing it by the teachers; the ways of communication between the
teachers; student arrangement and grouping while using Information and
Communications Technology; types of applications that the students use; the
impact of the ICT on the students; the impact of the ICT on the role of the
teacher; the ways of evaluating the students’ work by using ICT. Some of the
results found by this research are compared by the results found by the research
done by the Institute for Applied Social Science(ITS) with teachers from
Germany, Ireland, Spain, Netherlands and Belgium.
