In the 21st century, the field of education is progressively taking advantage of ICTs to enhance teaching and learning by efficiently and effectively distributing knowledge. Kenya, like many other developing nations, is in need of teachers who are equipped with educational technology knowledge for effective technology integration into teaching and learning so as to modernize her education sector.
