The study reveals that the female teachers from urban areas are more personally equipped with using ICT in education than their rural counterparts in terms of hardware as well as skills. It is also evident from the study that a high percentage of female teachers from rural areas have a positive attitude towards usage of ICT in education although they are at a disadvantage in terms of facilities and supply. The study also shows that as much as the use of ICT is needed for every teacher for successful teaching learning, many of the teachers are still not aware of the importance and usage of ICT and thus, paid no heed to it. At the same time, teachers who are aware of the usage of ICT in the classroom do not get proper facilities in their schools due to reasons like unavailability of facilities, location, lack of training, etc.
