Abstract: The invention of Information and communication technology has made tremendous changes in the present-day world. The advent of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has revolutionized the world in many ways, including education. In the past, classrooms were typically filled with chalkboards, textbooks, and lectures. However, as technology has advanced, so has our ability to incorporate it into the classroom. ICT has brought about a paradigm shift in the way teaching and learning are carried out in schools, colleges, and universities. The use of ICT in teaching has enabled teachers to create a better learning environment for students, making it easy for them to grasp complex concepts and ideas. This write-up explores the impact of ICT in teaching and learning and how it has transformed education. No area has been influenced by this digital phenomenon. The advent of ICT in education helped to improve the quality of education where teaching and learning eventually became an engaging active process related to real life. Active and collaborative learning conditions facilitated by ICT help to develop a knowledge-based student community. This gives an overview of the use of ICTs in the field of education focusing on its impact on the teaching-learning process, quality and accessibility of education, motivating learners, learning environment, and student's academic performance. It includes both the positive and negative impact of ICT on teaching and learning in schools. Discussion on the impact is thoroughly done and recommendations are given in this paper. The literature review highlights the positive impacts of ICT on teaching and learning in secondary schools in Uganda. It explores the integration of ICT in classrooms, access to digital resources, e-learning and blended learning, and teacher professional development, as well as the challenges faced. Understanding the benefits and challenges of ICT implementation in this context is crucial for policymakers, educators, and stakeholders to design effective strategies and support systems to enhance teaching and learning outcomes in secondary schools across Uganda.
