THE ROLE OF ICT AS A CHANGE AGENT FOR QUALITY EDUCATION IN LAGOS STATE SCHOOLS. A CASE STUDY OF RAINBOW COLLEGE

ABSTRACT

This work discussesthe role of ict as a change agent for quality education in lagos state schools. a case study of rainbow college.

The world moving rapidly into the digital media and information. The role of computing and ICT in education is becoming more and more important and this importance will continue to grow and develop in the 21st century. Education is the driving force of economic and social development in any country. Considering this, it is necessary to find ways to make education of good quality, accessible and affordable to all, using the computing and ICT in education develops higher order skills. Through computing and ICT provides enormous opportunity for all the teachers and benefit for every Indian learner. It is obvious that emphasis on computing and ICT are the crying need as it act as an agent for education without compromising the quality. It is also necessary to sustain a high growth rate of our economy through the capacity building and knowledge empowerment of the learners and for promoting new upcoming multidisciplinary fields of knowledge. Education is very socially oriented activity and quality education has traditionally been associated with strong teachers having high degrees of personal contact with learners. The paper argues the role of computing and ICT in transforming teaching and learning and seeks to explore how this will impact on the way programs will be offered and delivered in the educational institutions of the future.

.A hundred and twenty questionnaires were distributed among students and teachers from Rainbow college. Interviews and surveys were also conducted.

Primary and secondary data will be used in the analysis. Tables and percentages will also be used as the instrument of analysis

It will be observed therefore that technology can make lesson planning easier and less time consuming. The use of audio visual materials and ict tools have a strong and significant positive impact in lesson planning. There is a strong and significant positive role of ict as a change agent for quality education in Lagos state schools.

CHAPTER ONE

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

The challenges confronting our educational system in institution centers on quality attainment of education delivery, almost everything connected with education in institution is in short supply. Quality teachers are in short supply, quality buildings, quality equipment, quality laboratories, good experimental farms and other resources input that can lead to quality education are inadequately provided. Today, there exist general disenchantment and general distrust in the quality of the education system as well as in the quality of education output.

The quality of education is the prime factor that determines the worth and significance of the system to both the recipients and the society at large. Thus, Igwe (2009) notes that, the promises of information and communication technologies (ICTs) have driven e-learning in transforming education delivery and thereby advancing the knowledge economy.

The knowledge, economy for example sets a new scene for education and new challenges and prospects for education is a pre-requisite of the knowledge based economy and the production and use of new knowledge both require a more educated population and workforce (Arikewuyo, 2004). ICTs are very powerful tool for diffusing knowledge and information which is fundamental aspects of the education process.

In that capacity, ICTs play a pedagogic role that could in principle compliment the traditional practices of the education sector (Igwe, 2009).

Undoubtedly, e-learning powered by ICT use in tertiary institutions could help to expand and widen access to tertiary education and learning, improve the quality of education as well reduce its cost. This means that effective ICT use in tertiary institutions in Nigeria could help to spur positive results in improving the overall learning (and teaching) experiences as well as in up-lifting the quality of the system.

Therefore the research seeks to investigate the role of ICT as a change agent for quality education in institution in Nigeria.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Elele (1983) cited in Yusuf (2012) notes that quantitatively, the Nigerian Education scene in quite impressive but qualitative deficient. There exist general disenchantment and general distrust in the quality of the education system as well as in the quality of education output. (Arikewuyo, 2004) stated that ICT can play a very prominent role in diffusing knowledge and information which is fundamental aspects of the education process towards quality attainments.

In this capacity, ICT plays a pedagogic role that could in principle complement the traditional practices of the education sector.

Therefore, the problem confronting this research is to appraise the role of ICT as a change agent towards quality education in institution in Nigeria.
