Abstract	The importance of pedagogical integration of ICT in Kenya and globally cannot be overemphasized. It is becoming increasingly apparent that all aspects of people's lives including the way education is taught and delivered are greatly influenced by developments in Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). This study was carried out to investigate gender differences in pedagogical interaction of Information Communication Technology among science and mathematics teachers in public secondary schools in Kieni West subcounty,Nyeri county,Kenya.The objectives of the study are to (i) establish gender differences in E-learning preparedness in teaching and learning (ii) explore gender differences in attainment of computer skills in teaching and learning and (iii) examine how the proficiency of ICTs influences ICT integration in teaching and learning. Questionnaires were administered to 18 male and 11 female sciences and mathematics teachers. Findings indicated that 81.3% and 30% of the male and female teachers respectively had no usage on power point. Further 72% and 63.6% of the male and female teachers had no access to computers. Gender differences were realized in E-learning preparedness as well as in ICT skills attainment among science and mathematics teachers in public secondary schools in the district. The study recommends that all teachers need to be trained on the basic computer skills.
