چکیده
The implementation of ICT in schools requires a vision on ICT use in school, the formulation of clear strategic goals, and the planning and organisation of the use of ICT in school. The pursued goals are those points we want to reach for the learner by setting up ICT use in school. At the same time the pursued goals are the results of using ICT as expected by the stakeholders, being the learner, the teacher, the ICT coordinator, and on an indirect way the parents, the environment and the funding government. We created a checklist around the following three main criteria ICT vision, enabling school organisation and processes and results. Those has been split again in five criteria, the vision for ICT use in school, secundary processes, resources and partners, primary processes and results. The checklist can be used by the school board as a self evaluation instrument.
