Abstract

The study was conducted to find out the influence of information and communication technology resource availability and utilization on teachers’ job performance in secondary schools in Port Harcourt metropolis. The study was guided by three specific objectives, three research questions and one hypothesis. The hypothesis was tested at 0.05 alpha level. A descriptive survey design was adopted for the study and a sample of 340 teachers comprising 200 from Obio/Akpor Local Government Area and 140 from Port Harcourt City Local Government Area was selected through simple random sampling technique. Data collection was achieved with the aid of a structured questionnaire developed by the researchers with items derived from literature review. The questionnaire was validated by three experts drawn from the area of the study. The reliability was conferred on the instrument using test-retest method. The reliability coefficient of 0.78 was computed using Parson's Product Moment Correlation statistics. Data gathered were analysed using mean and standard deviation to answer the research questions while Z-test statistics was used to test the none hypothesis at 0.05 alpha level. The result of the study showed that information and communication technology tools were not adequately available. The available tools were utilized by teachers for the improvement on the Teachers' job performance. Based on the result, it was recommended that provision for information and communication technology tools should be improved by government.
