Globalization is a fundamental factor affecting education globally in this century. It has provided many educational opportunities. As a member of the international community, Nigeria is not shielded from the globalization process. This paper, therefore, examines the challenges of education in Nigeria in a globalizing world, with emphasis on the availability and usability of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The paper suggests ways by which the challenges of education in relation to ICT and globalization could be reduced; among them include investment in the areas of research and ICT and other facilities that will enhance globalization of education.
