dc.description.abstractThis study aimed at assessing the availability, accessibility and utilization of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) resources among lecturers in content delivery in Federal Colleges of Education in Nigeria. Eight research questions and two hypotheses were drawn to guide the study. Related literatures were reviewed after the conceptual framework based on the major variables of the study. A Survey research design was adopted to conduct the study. The population of the study comprises of all the lecturers in Federal Colleges of Education in Nigeria. They are five thousand and seventy one (5,071) in number. A sample size of eight hundred and forty three (843) lecturers was used for the study; using cluster, simple random and proportional sampling techniques. A modified questionnaire tagged Teachers ICT usage survey from the ICT Survey Indicator for teachers and staff developed by both UNESCO (2004) and the New Zealand Ministry of Education (1999) was used for data collection. It was designed under seven (7) different sections and harmonized in one single questionnaire. Percentage was used to interpret the demographic data of the study, while frequency count was used to answer research questions 1-6 and descriptive statistics was used to answer research questions 7and 8 respectively. Independent t-test statistics was also used to answer research hypothesis 1 using mean and standard deviation, while one way ANOVA was used to answer hypothesis 2 using sum of square, degree of freedom, mean of sum of square, and were tested at p<0.05 level of significance using statistical package for social science. The two null hypotheses were rejected. The findings of this study revealed that ICT resources are not available in Federal Colleges of Education in Nigeria. It was also revealed that ICT resources which were supposed to be used in content delivery by lecturers in FCE were not accessible and also lecturers were not exposed and proficient in using ICT resources. This study also confirmed that the major challenge facing lecturers in using ICT is the irregularity in power supply. This study recommends, among others, that the Government, NCCE and the managements of FCE should join hands together and ensure that computer laboratories are available in FCE with adequate functional computer hardware and software and functional internet facilities that will cater for the need of both staff and studentsen_US
