Abstract: In the contemporary educational landscape, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has emerged as a transformative force, fundamentally altering how teaching and learning processes are conducted. This study focuses on evaluating the state of ICT integration in schools within Jharkhand and compares it with national averages. The advent of digital technologies has enhanced information accessibility, fostered interactive learning environments, and equipped students with essential 21st-century skills. Despite Jharkhand’s rich cultural heritage and growing economic significance, the state faces challenges in educational development, particularly concerning ICT infrastructure. Recent efforts to improve technological resources in Jharkhand’s schools have not yet fully addressed the gaps in practical classroom implementation. On a national scale, India has made significant progress in ICT integration through initiatives like the National Mission on Education through ICT (NME-ICT) and the Digital India program, which have strengthened digital infrastructure, teacher training, and student access to ICT resources. However, disparities persist between states, highlighting uneven adoption and implementation rates. This comparative analysis aims to bridge the knowledge gap by examining infrastructure availability, teacher training, and student access to ICT resources in Jharkhand against national averages. The findings provide insights into the strengths and weaknesses of ICT integration strategies in Jharkhand and identify areas for improvement.
