THE UTILIZATION OF COMPUTER SOFTWARE IN THE TEACHING AND LEARNING OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE IN SELECTED SECONDARY SCHOOOLS IN IBADAN

This research project was aimed at investigating the utilization of computer

software in the teaching and learning of English language in selected secondary schools in

Ibadan. It is an empirical research that is complemented with series of literature

consultation, data collection and analysis including recommendations on how computer

software are utilized to enhance effective teaching and learning of English language. Fifty

English Language teachers were randomly selected from Four local governments in

Ibadan. A self constructed questionnaire on the utilization of computer software in the

teaching and learning of English language in secondary schools was used to gather data.

The data generated were analyzed using frequency counts and percentage scores. It was

found that teachers have been making use of available computer software in their teaching

process as little as they can while some computer software that are also needed are not

accessible and provisions are not made for them. Due to this situation and lack of

motivation, training and provision for teachers from the appropriate quarters, teachers

have been using the available computer software for other purposes than teaching. Based

on these findings, some recommendations which include the provision of suitable

computer software for teachers, adequate training and motivation for teachers, provision

of equipment and amenities in schools including proper encouragement for teachers and

students on adequate utilization of computer software in the teaching and learning of

English language were made.
