CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1. Background of  the Study

Information and communication technology (ICT) has become one of the basic building blocks of the present society. Many developing countries now regard the understanding of ICT and mastering the basic skills and concepts of ICT as part of the core of education. Education is the overall development of an individual in all ramifications and not limited to classroom jurisdiction. (Akinfolarin, 2014). ICT is a term used to refer to technologies that are used in creating, accumulating, storing, editing and disseminating information in various forms.

Tan, Chong, Lin &Eze (2009) defines Information and Communication Technology as application of Information and Communication Technology tools including computer network, software and hardware required for internet connection. Ifueko (2011) also sees ICT as the digital processing and utilization of information by the use of electronic computers. It comprises the storage, retrieval, conversion and transmission of information.
