Research problem

The Saudi government has realized the importance of investing in the education sector, especially in the youth sector; the huge investments have been dedicated by Saudi government to the purpose of developing public education. For example, in 2007 the Saudi government invested almost £2bn in reforming and improving education using modern technologies. Furthermore, public education was improved by revising the curriculum and introducing electronic devices to facilitate teaching. This project also introduced training and development programmes for educators to ensure sufficient use of ICT in education (Tatweer, 2007). Therefore, more than 25% of the overall Saudi’s government budget for 2013 is dedicated to the educational sector( more than £34 billion), which adds to the already massive funds pumped into the educational field towards the implementation of technology in the school curriculum and improving ICT facilities (Al-Eqtisadiah, 2013).

However, In spite of this increased spending and governmental support, Saudi Arabia still lags behind world leaders in the educational sector especially with regards to ICT (Ashka, 2013). There is still a big gap between the availability of ICT technology in Saudi schools and methods of implementation, and there are still many improvements needed to reach an effective implementation of ICT in Saudi classrooms. To confirm that, some recent studies related to ICT in Saudi secondary schools (Almalki & Williams, 2012; Oyaid, 2009; Almadhour, 2010) mentioned that the Saudi government needs to develop an effective strategy for ICT in education and implement it in practice in Saudi schools. Almadhour (2010) concluded in his study, ‘Unfortunately although the Saudi Arabian government has lots of funding, there is no clear strategic framework towards equipping ICT in schools’.
