THE ROLE OF ICT IN THE ACADEMIC SCHOOL STUDENT IN BIOLOGY
ABSTRACT
The study examines The Role of ICT in the Academic School Student in Biology in Benin Metropolis. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were laid out to know whether ICT function well in student's academic records in Biology, know if those in-charge of student academic records are aware of components of ICT, find the proper way of funding the proper way of function ICT in students' academic records in Biology, known the problem militating against the application of ICT in student academic records in Biology, and know the strategies that can be adopted to overcome the problems. The research design used in this report is descriptive design, utilizing questionnaire method to obtain information from the respondents for this project. Primary data were collected from the primary source which questionnaire was used as an instrument of data collection while secondary data were sources from textbooks, journals, newspapers and the internet were employed. The data were presented on a frequency distribution table and analyzed using simple percentage, while hypothesis was tested using chi-square test. The study is significant because its will contribute to understand the role of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the effective management of students academic records. It will also help administrators to be aware of the factors hindering the role of ICT in student academic record and working towards averting the problems. The department will also benefit greatly the function of ICT.
CHAPTER ONE
1.1 Introduction
Teaching and learning are inseparable concepts with learning playing more of judgmental role to teaching. It is believed that “unless the student learns the teacher has not taught”. Though teaching and learning are intimately linked processes and are interdependent as well as inter woven, teaching is a social phenomenon, while learning is a psychological phenomenon. It is teaching which generally results into learning but there can be learning without teaching. Teachers in the recent trend of teaching and learning are therefore seen as facilitators or guide, and I believe this can better be enhanced through utilisation of ICT facilities.
As a prelude to other parts of this study, this chapter will discuss the background upon which this study was initiated, the statement of problems that led to this study, the Aim and Objectives of the study. Others are Significance of the study, Scope of work, Research hypothesis and questions, Limitations of the Study and Definition of technical terms.
1.2 Background of Study
Information revolution started a number of years ago and the role all the world has been good. This revolution has brought about convergence of information communication technologies (ICT), which have remained at the centre of global, social and economic transformation. The information revolution and extraordinary increase in the spread of knowledge and information which affects directly economic, social, cultural and political activities of all regions of the world including Africa. Information and communication technology (ITC) is defined as computer-based tools used by people to work with the information and communication processing needs of an organization, it encompasses the hardware and software, the network and several other devices (video audio, everalphy camera) that convert information (text) images, sounds motion and others into common digital form.
ICT has made the shift from print to digital information possible which has created an impact on students' academic records and information centres (Gbaje 2009).
This has enable on-line access and file transfer possible, with networking and resource sharing. Islam and Islam (2006) says that ICT as the role and publication of computers, telecommunication and microelectronics in the acquisition, storage, retrieval transfer and dissemination of information in students, academic records.
ICT is a significant development that provides effective took for managing the available of information generated in students, academic records. The prevalence and rapid development of ICT has transformed students' information technology age to the knowledge.
In modern ICT based on students the information professionals handle various types of activities in relation to the role of computers and other new information technologies. Before the advent of information and communication technology. (ICT) is students academic records were the sole custodies of information which was predominantly in print. Today students' academic record is struggling to keep their place as the major source of inquiry in the face of emerging digital technology. In the modern world, the student's academic record as information centres can hardly function today without computer and information technologies. In the overview, the role of information and communication technology (ICT) systems in student's academic record and information centres in common place all over the world.
Therefore, in Benin Metropolis where the research was carried out, the activities that was conducted is to know the Role of ICT in the Academic School Student in Biology.
1.3 Statement of Problem
This is an information age, the dawn of a new era where information flows before us both promise and new ways of thinking living and working through the role of ICT and the effective management. Unfortunately despite the undoubted benefits of ICT in students’ academic record. Record and statistics department are still far from integrating and equipping the invaluable role of ICT in effective management.
The student academic record has not adopted this role of technologies in record and statistics department. They have brought ineffective management of ICT in student's academic record.
1.4 Aim and Objectives of the Study
