Abstract

This study examines how secondary school administrators in the Ilorin Metropolis use ICT for managerial planning. The principal must effectively and efficiently organize, manage, and supervise the school's business for them to run successfully. This study's design is a survey-style descriptive study to determine how ICT affects principals' administrative performance. The population of this study consisted of 292 participants from all 75 public secondary schools in the Ilorin Metropolis. The instrument for data collection was a structured questionnaire titled "Information Communication Technology and Principal's Administrative Effectiveness Questionnaire" (ICTPAEQ) while reliability coefficient values of 0.85 were obtained. The data gathered from the field was evaluated using pertinent descriptive statistics such as percentages, mean, and standard deviation, while research question 4 was addressed using Pearson Production Moment Correlation (PPMC) statistics. This finding may be explained by the fact that most schools lacked these ICT resources, which may have contributed to the finding. This finding revealed that secondary school principals do better administratively the more they use ICT resources. This further implies that secondary school management effectiveness may be in danger in the absence of ICT. This implied that ICT is a crucial factor in the efficient administration of secondary schools. Based on the findings of this study, the following recommendations were made for secondary school administrators to become more proficient and use ICT technologies to enhance training for school administrators who are not yet ICT proficient.

Abstract

ICT is now a necessity for both professionals and organizations due to its pervasiveness across all fields of human endeavour. The literacy skills level plays a major role in its application for routine responsibilities and the pace at which task is complemented. For efficient service delivery in the public service, this study evaluated the ICT literacy abilities and their application among the staff of education agencies. It used a descriptive cross-sectional survey design. Structured items on the ICT skills assessment and utilization questionnaire (ICTSAUQ) were administered to fifty staff using convenient sampling techniques. To respond to the research questions posed by this study, descriptive and inferential statistics were used. The question was addressed using percentage means and standard deviations, and the questions were analysed using a t-test. The results showed that having a basic understanding of ICT helps do administrative tasks daily. However, the staff of the education agencies lacked the necessities for their daily routine of managerial responsibilities and operations. Hence, it was suggested that staff of the Education Agencies in Kwara State must be exposed to the required ICT skills to perform the routine functions at the optimal level. Additionally, it was suggested that agency staff members be encouraged to consistently improve their ICT literacy abilities through self-training and group work to improve the competence of service delivery in the educational sector
