Abstract

This study was conducted against the growing importance of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in enhancing teaching effectiveness and achieving sustainable development in education. However, despite increased access to ICT, concerns remain regarding the competency of academic staff in its effective utilization. This study therefore investigated the influence of ICT teaching competency skills on the productivity of academic staff at Alvan Ikoku Federal University of Education, Owerri. A quantitative approach using a descriptive survey design was adopted. The population comprised 735 academic staff, from which a sample of 300 was selected using cluster random sampling. Data were collected using a validated researcher-developed rating scale (ASICTTCSRS) with reliability coefficients of 0.86 and 0.81. Mean and standard deviation were used to answer research questions, while z-test was employed to test hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that ICT teaching competency skills significantly enhance academic staff productivity. However, the level of ICT competency possessed by the staff was significantly below the expected average, indicating a gap between awareness and practical skills. The study concludes that improving ICT competency is essential for enhancing productivity and achieving sustainable development. It recommends targeted training and institutional support to strengthen ICT integration in teaching practices.
