ABSTRACT
The study was on the Impact of Application of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the administration of Polytechnic in
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Information and Communications Technology (ICT) is technology that supports activities involving the creation, storage manipulation and communication of information, together with the related methods, management and application.
In other words, ICT enables us to record, store, process, and retriever and transmit information. It encompasses modern technology technologies such as computer, telecommunication, facsimile and micro-electronics. Older technologies such as document filling systems, mechanical accenting machines, printing and care drawings are also included in the term information technology. Information and communication technology in today’s world refers to those technologies that determine the efficiency and effectiveness with which we communication and the devices that allow us to handle information.
Information and communication Technology (ICT) has becomes a key tool in acquiring, processing and disengaging knowledge.
It has becomes an imperative tool for investing developing of a nation in the 21st century the revolutionary impact of ICT on all sphere of the society has not spared the educational sector.
Education is a pre- requisite of today knowledge-based economy the production and use of new knowledge required a more educated population, ICT is playing a major role the acquisition and diffusion of knowledge which are fundamental aspects of the education process. It is offerings increasing possibilities absent teaching and for invocation in teaching activities through being able to deliver learning cognitive activities any where at anytime. The availability of the internet has giving rise to an electronics approach to the educational system called e-leering
Tertiary educational institutions have always being at the fore front of new scientific discoveries and innovation brought about by the activities of teaching learning and research. E-learning is becoming increase singly primmest in tertiary education, e-learning is being delivered on the platforms of ICT infrastructure promise to widen access to education and at reduced cost, Apart from electronics learning ICT infrastructure are being widely use to support teaching, learning, administration and research activities in tertiary instillation, such infrastructure include personal computers, specialized software, handheld devices, interactive volute board, intranet and visual literary.
1.2 RATIONALE / THEORETICAL FRAME WORK
The internet is now widely used as a medium of communications arrange administration researchers and student in higher institutions. There are many desirable attributes of information communication of information and technology (ICT). Each of them concerns the effective prevision of information to the recipient. These include purpose accuracy factorial, volume of information volume of detail and presentation of information
The term Administration is regarded as the process of utilizing human and imperial resources in accomplishing designating objectives; this could be done by organization, direction co-coordinating and evaluating programmer in a bid to actives goals or objectives. In a such social process, there is always a structure inerrably comprising the subordinates and super ordinals
As such, the primary function of management is to take decisions facture leaching to the achievement of organizational objectives. The types of decisions management malies will determine it information needs, however the numerous crises in they are higher instatement could have been prevents if information and communication Technology will promote issues on student admission student records and transcript examination records and transcript, examination records, teaching, research and community services it has also been observed that the monitoring and evaluation of staff, physical plant planning curriculum development, financial management and information dissemination will increase the efficiency of the polytechnic administration, if information and communication Technology facilities are adequately and properly initialized.
1.3 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The basic problem of this study is to examine the relational between information (ICT) and administration of polytechnics
i. ICT can be applied directly to provide solution to specific administration problems
ii. ICT enhances qualitative and quantitative decision-molding and information management
iii. ICT encourages skill acquisition and competency of administrating
iv. ICT guarantees effective administrative practices in record keeping, information management, personal administrant and resource allocation.
v. ICT here capacity to hurdle quality of date, process them, solve them, process them, store them and release them when needed even at the fastest speed.
1.4 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The purpose of this study is to model a critical analysis of the impact of information and communication technology (ICT) in the administration of polytechnic in
1.5 RESEARCH QUESTIONS / HYPOTHESES
This study will make use of these various research questions / hypotheses below:
i. Does ICT provide solution to specific problems of administration?
ii. Does ICT enhance qualitative and quantitative decision-making in the administration of polytechnic
iii. Does ICT encourages shill acquisition and competency of administration
iv. Does ICT guarantees effective administration practices of human and in trial resources?
v. Does ICT have capacity to handle quantity of date for processing with fastest speed?
H01. There is no significant relationship between information and communications technology and solving administration problem.
H02. There is no significant relationship between information and communications and quality of decision marking in the administrative of polytechnics.
H03. There is no significant relationship between information and communications technology and administrative competence in polytechnics.
H04. There is no significant relationship between information and communications technology and administration of human resources in polytechnics
H05. There is no significant relationship between information and communications technology and speed in data management in polytechnics.
1.6 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This study is significant to the extent that findings would assists the federal and State ministry of education, National Education Agencies and Foreign and International bodies in implementing its educational policies and compliance with E-leering and E-administration of polytechnics, moreover, this study is amide el-sealing sometimes to the implementation and application of the impact of information and communications of polytechnics in Ogun State Nigeria.
1.7 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
This research is concluded within the frame wary of the state objectives it is not indented to carry out a complete evaluation of the impact of application of information and communication technology in the administration of polytechnics of
Due to time and francium constraints, the researcher would do the questionnaire administration on selected polytechnics in
1.8 SCOPE / DELIMITATION OF THE STUDY
This study is restricted to the impact of application of Information and Communication Technology in the administration of polytechnics in
i. Federal polytechnic Ilaro
ii. Moshood Abiola Polytechnic Ojere
iii. Allover Central Polytechnic Ota
iv. Gateway (ICT) Polytechnic Itori
v. Gateway (ICT) polytechnic Saapade
