THE PERCEPTION OF JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOLS TEACHERS AND PUPILS IN THE AHAFO ANO SOUTH EAST DISTRICT AND NHYIAESO SUB-METROPOLITAN AREAS IN THE ASHANTI REGION ON THE ROLE OF TECHNOLOGY ON TEACHING

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine the outcome on the use of digital technologies to teachers and pupils in Junior High Schools in Ahafo Ano South East district and Nhyiaeso sub-metropolitan areas in the Ashanti Region of Ghana and also to integrate Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI) that will facilitate teaching and learning in the classroom. Both quantitative and qualitative research methodology were used. Simple Random sampling technique was used to sample 258 pupils and teachers from both districts (Ahafo Ano South East district and Nhyiaeso sub-metropolis). Self-developed questionnaire was used in data collection. Cross tabulation was used to analyse the data. The results showed that teachers and pupils in the Nhyiaeso sub-metropolis were much advanced in the use of technology tools as compared to the teachers and pupils in the Ahafo Ano South East district. The use of technology tools had also made teaching and learning easier in the Nhyiaeso sub-metropolis than the Ahafo Ano South East district. This was due to the application of computer assisted instruction during teaching and learning. Based on the findings, the study recommended that the Ministry of Education should consider integrating computer assisted instruction in teaching and learning in every part of the country. Teachers are to be given in-service training on the importance of computer assisted instruction and also to improve their knowledge and skill in the use of computers in the classroom, which would improve upon the integration of computer technology in teaching and learning.
