A correlation test was applied for identifying the effects if independent variables on student learning. Regression test applied for checking the relationship among different variables. ANOVA test was applied for checking the comparison between students' age and Obtainability, Sufficiency, Approachability and User ability of ICT resources.
The results indicate that there is a strong relationship between sufficiency and students learning, the results indicate that there is a strong relationship between approachability and students learning and the results indicate that there is a strong relationship between user ability and students learning if the user ability of ICT resources is positive in schools than the students learning is good and if the user ability of ICT resources is negative in schools than the students learning is not good. According to third research objective user ability of ICT resources has effects on students learning.The infrastructure of the schools of the district Lahore is poorly farmed, randomly distributed and lack of ICT new technology.
