Relationship Among Availability, Adequacy and Utilization of Information and Communication Technology Facilities for Teaching and Academic Achievements of Mathematics Undergraduate Students in Universities in Gombe State, Nigeria

Abstract

The study examined the relationship among availability, adequacy, and utilization of information and communication technology (ICT) facilities and the academic achievement of mathematics undergraduates in universities in Gombe State, Nigeria. A correlational research design was adopted with a sample of 92 lecturers and 192 students. Data were collected using validated questionnaires and analysed using mean, standard deviation, Pearson correlation, and regression analysis at the 0.05 significance level. Results revealed significant positive relationships among availability, adequacy, and utilization of ICT facilities and students’ academic achievement, but no significant relationship was found between gender and ICT utilization. The study recommends that universities enhance ICT provision and training for effective integration in teaching and learning.
