An Investigation of Integrating Information and Communication Technology into Teaching Science and Mathematics in Sudanese Secondary Schools
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Sciences and Education - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to explore the extent to which Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is integrated into the teaching and learning of mathematics and science in Sudanese secondary schools. A descriptive survey design was used, with questionnaire and interview as instruments to collect the data. A sample of 50 secondary schools from the Khartoum state was selected using a stratified random sampling technique. The data-collection instruments were issued to 100 science and math teachers from identified schools (50 schools). A total of 84 questionnaires were completed and retained for analysis. According to the findings of the study, secondary school math and science teachers are not yet ready to integrate ICT into their classrooms due to a number of obstacles, including the unavailability of infrastructure, limited time for planning and the lack of support from school administrators. The findings also showed that most teachers have negative attitudes regarding ICT integration in the teaching and learning of math and science subjects.
