Information Technology Utilization for Effective Business Teacher Education
programme: A case study of University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom state
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
Background
of the Study
According to
Information Technology Association of America (ITAA), Information technology is
“the study, design, development, implementation, support or management of
computer – based information systems, particularly software”.
The relevance
of information technology has impacted tremendously on all aspects of human
existence and career in general, and the business teacher education programme
in particular.
However, in
the mid 20th century, the roles of information technology and its utilization
increased immeasurably as a result of social progress and the development of
science and technology. Arguably, the pace of changes brought by these new
technologies has had a significant effect, on the way people live, work” learn,
interact and play world – wide. These new and emerging technologies have
challenged the traditional process of teaching arid learning, and the way
education programme are managed.
Information
technology as an important area of study in its own right, is having a major
impact across all curriculum area’s especially business education programme
Easy Communication provides access to a vast array of data challenging
assimilation, increased access to and usage of information technology in the
home, at work and in education establishment could mean that learning and
education become a truly life long’ activity – ail activity in which the pace
of technological change forces constant evaluation of learning process itself.
Computer
network exists to provide computer users with the means, of communicating and
transferring information electronically. The use of Internet has revolutionized
access to information for the business world, libraries, education and
individuals. A few of the most popular information technology includes:
Electronic mail (E-mail), World Wide Web (WWW), File Transfer Protocol (FTP),
Usenet and telnet. The Internet and its technology continues to have a profound
effect in promoting the, sharing of information and knowledge, especially in
the academic world. Learning resource centers and most universities are now
connected to the Internet. These technologies have the potential to develop and
thus increase students access and participations. On this note, information
technology provides access to mainstream materials and enables students and
teachers to express their thoughts in, words designs. and activities, despite
their disabilities (Osuwa, 2002).
Statement of
Problem
The application and utilization of
information technology is on the increase in developed countries, especially in
their educational system. It is quite different in this part of the world owing
to the low level of awareness in science and technology. Information literacy
is related to information technology skills, though, it has broader
implication’s for individuals education systems and the whole society.
Information technology skills enable educators, teacher and even students to
use computers, software applications and other technologies to achieve a wide
variety of academic programme.
Actually, in
all of these, educators and business education teachers/students in Nigerian
Universities in general and University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State in particular
are facing difficult and crucial challenges in the process of application and
utilization of information technology in solving academic problems. These
problems are started thus: little or no investment in information technologies
by most universities in their educational, programmes, inadequate or lack of
‘training of Manpower, lack of awareness of the availability of information
technology and it’s ability to solve almost all academic problems by business
education students. Another most important challenge is the high .cost involved
in acquisition, application and utilization of information technology. This has
hindered the effective learning and transfer of knowledge in the educational
system, especially that of the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State. This research
is therefore conducted to ascertain the extent of the utilization of
information technology in its business teacher education programme.
