The ICT Connection portal is set up to provide the direction on the third Masterplan for ICT in Education journey (mp3), and will be a common reference point for different stakeholders. It aims to:

1. Be a channel to communicate mp3 goals and information

It will provide clear illustration on the multifaceted concepts of mp3 to promote building of shared understanding and the pursuit of student centric education. This communication process makes possible coherence in the policies and practices for different stakeholders.

2. Facilitate dialogue on mp3’s strategic intent

The ICT Connection is a platform that facilitates the translation of mp3 intents into practices in schools. Through it, educators can collaborate and tap on one another’s experience and expertise in timely online community of educators as learners.
3. Illustrate meaningful use of ICT in education

The ICT Connection harvests appriopriate examples of the use of ICT that takes place in schools, including those that promote Self-directed Learning (SDL) and Collaborative Learning (CoL). It aims to build up a repertoire of ICT tools and its appriopriate uses that can be used for classroom teaching. These lessons could demonstrate enhance and transformative use of ICT in schools, and could eventually lead to scale up practices across more schools.
