The changing demands of global society entails the need to constantly upgrade the skills and adaptability of human resource with more imaginative educational expansion that can support an accelerated spread of new technologies in the education system.

In recent years, several countries in Asia have responded to this global need through national education strategies with a focus on integration of ICT in education at all levels. However, counties are still in different stages of this integration, coping with challenges of infrastructure and implementation.

Digital Learning Asia will take stock of the progress of the Asian countries in utilizing ICTs to enhance the quality and reach of education and capacity building. The conference will provide a platform for policymakers, practitioners, industry leaders and academicians to share experiences, knowledge and perspectives in integrating ICTs in education and deliberate on the future strategies for education that can strengthen the knowledge society.
