Abstract

The invention and development of computers appears to be one of the greatest innovations in the history of mankind. The contribution of computers to the growth and development of human society has been very significant that eventually every human activity is being computerized today. The objective of the study is to determine whether the available Information Communication Technology infrastructures are capable of encouraging Information Communication Technology usage. The challenges to Information Communication Technology usage and acceptance on academic staff and students ranges from, lack of funds, no opportunity for training, lack of sponsorship by the school management, inadequacy of electricity supply, lack of Information Communication Technology knowledge, insufficient time due to workload, lack of interest in learning, and lack of time for practice. Survey research will adopt a structured questionnaire which will be distributed for the study. The research study is geographically limited to Bauchi state of Nigeria, and involves the academic staff and students of the eleven (11) Public Tertiary institutions in the state, out of which two are universities, two polytechnics, five colleges and two monotechnics. In addition, there is no any private university or polytechnic located in the state. Perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and infrastructural capabilities were considered useful factors for successfully promoting the Information Communication Technology usage on the academic staff and students of tertiary institutions in Bauchi state,
