Factors Influencing The Integration Of Ict In The Teaching And Learning Of O’ Level Geography In Chirumanzu District

ABSTRACT

The purpose of the study was to find the factors influencing the integration of ICT in the

teaching and learning of O‟ level Geography in Chirumanzu District. It was significant for

the researcher to carry out the study because there is need for provision of relevant

technological equipment to enable students to develop skills that are essential for a

technological age. The qualitative research design was used which allowed the generation of

empirical data using thematic analysis approach. The data generating instruments used were

the interview and observation schedule as well as the document analysis. A sample of three

teachers and three heads of departments was purposively selected on the bases of the

availability of computers. The findings from this study revealed that teachers were qualified

and experienced enough to teach O‟ level Geography. However shortage of teaching and

learning resources and negative attitude portrayed by the teachers towards the integration of

ICT are the major contributing factors causing slow integration. The researcher recommends

that schools should carry out fundraising activities in order to avail resources for the

integration of ICT in the teaching and learning of Geography. Workshops or staff

development sessions should be carried out so that teachers are well informed and equipped

to minimize their negative attitudes
