Résumé

The aim of this paper is to define educational technologies used in South Korea and the importance of the role of the Korean government in their implementation. It is to show and prove how the electrical devices, which are being used by an average person on a daily basis, can be used to change the schooling system and increase the effectiveness of learning and teaching, giving students and teachers multiple options to choose from. The purpose of Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) usage in schools is to change the traditional, passive way of learning into a more engaging and interactive type. ICT make education less time-consuming, more diverse, eco-friendly in some aspects and simply easier, but ICT are not perfect either and they definitely brings few risks along too.
