About this title

Synopsis

The question how well do the ODL Bachelor of Education in Educational Management students appreciate the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs)in their studies is quite a contentious one. This piece of research work has sought to unmask to unmask the Zimbabwe Open University's Bachelor of Education in Educational Management Students' attitudes towards the use of ICT ib their studies.In some academic circles,it is argued that use of ICT in degree studies is a pathway to students' success. Students are presumed to be furnished with the most current sources of information, albeit the quality of authors of such knowledge.ICT sources of information could complement the printed sources of information, thereby, butressing ODL's students' abilities to acquire knowledge of high quality.What remains to be done in order to enable the ODL learners adopt the right attitude towards the use of ICT in their studies is to expose them to the Introduction to Computers as a level 2 course through the Module BEDM 207. In that regard, they would not be technologically challenged as they would be technologically compliant. The could use computers to research for their assignments.
