Academic Enthusiasm of Study in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into

Learners

This chapter presents the related literature and studies after the thorough and in-depth
search done by the researchers. This will also present synthesis of the art, theoretical, and
conceptual framework to fully understand the research to be done and lastly the definition of
term for better comprehension of the study.

Locale Literature:

According to Tomaro (2018) the study is a review of two scholarly works focusing on the case of
ICT integration in the educational system of Philippines. The papers reviewed were the paper of
Kubota, Yamamoto, and Morioka (2018) entitled, Promoting ICT education in developing
countries: Case Study in the Philippine and the research work of Bonifacio (2013) entitled,
Developing Information Communication Technology (ICT) Curriculum Standards for K-12
Schools in the Philippines.

According to Garcia, Aunario, Handriyantini (2019) ICT infrastructure generates abundant

benefits to every country's educational progress. This study aims to explore the acceptance and
utilization of ICT among senior high school (SHS) students in the Philippines and Indonesia
using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). A survey
questionnaire was administered to 529 Senior High School students through convenience
sampling. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was conducted to analyse the data using EQS 6.1
software. A confirmatory factor analysis and path analysis was also performed to test the model.
The results reveal that among the predictors of behavioural intentions, only social influence
positively influences behavioural intention or acceptance to use ICT for learning and research.
Facilitating conditions and behavioural intention directly predicts the behavioural use. The
findings reveal behavioural similarity and difference between Filipino and Indonesian senior
high school students on the adoption of ICT.

According to Gonzales (2021) Integrating Information and Communication Technology (ICT)

into Science Education improves teachers' and students' understanding of the nature of science.
The ICT proficiency of seasoned teachers is critical for augmenting Science concepts and
providing seamless opportunities for both teachers and students. The goal of this study is to
determine the required level of ICT proficiency for Junior High School Science (JHS) teachers
who teach Science subjects. This study collected data quantitatively, particularly; a descriptive
method was used to describe the extent of ICT-related requisites of seventy (70) seasoned junior
high school science teachers in nineteen (19) schools in Cluster V, Candara-San Luis, in the
Schools Division of Pampanga, Philippines. The level of teachers' use of ICT in their teaching-
learning process was determined using a modified survey questionnaire. The analysis revealed
that, on average, JHS Science teachers lacked proficiency with technology and had difficulty
integrating it into their teaching-learning practices. Given the findings, it is recommended that
training/seminars on ICT use in teaching-learning practice to be conducted. More so, teachers are
encouraged to incorporate technology into daily instruction and LCDs/laptops may be purchased
to assist teachers in delivering quality education.

The study is a review of two scholarly works focusing on the case of ICT integration in the
educational system of Philippines. The papers reviewed were the paper of Kubota, Yamamoto,
and Morioka (2018) entitled, Promoting ICT education in developing countries: Case Study in
the Philippine and Bonifacio's (2013) Developing Information Communication Technology
(ICT) Curriculum Standards for K-12 Schools in the Philippines. This study aims to explore the
acceptance and utilization of ICT among senior high school (SHS) students in the Philippines
and Indonesia using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). The
papers reviewed were the paper of Kubota, Yamamoto, and Morioka (2018) entitled, Promoting
ICT education in developing countries: Case Study in the Philippine and the research work of
Bonifacio (2013) entitled, Developing Information Communication Technology (ICT)
Curriculum Standards for K-12 Schools in the Philippines.

The study aims to give a student an academic enthusiasm to Information Communication of

Technology (ICT) to have knowledge and motivated in ICT education and having more
experience.

Foreign Literature:

To B. Azzinejad, F. Allah Karami (2018) One of the most important issues that has occupied the
education of the country today, is how education faces the opportunities and threats resulting
from the expansion and development of information and communication technology and
accurate and principled planning for its operation and use. In particular, given the impact of these
new technologies on teaching-learning methods and changing the role of teachers, it is necessary
to provide grounds for both the Ministry of Education to identify the wealth of the teacher
community and the teachers to identify and improve their skills in the application of new
educational technologies. The role of information and communication technologies in the
learning cycle is very important. The main goal of this research compared the effect of traditional
education and ICT- based education on students’ academic enthusiasm in the eighth grade of
middle school in Java rood.

According to Funda Erdogdu (2022) the main drive for this study is to look into potential
predictors of educational achievement using OECD’s original Pisa 2018 dataset. This paper
explores access to ICT, physical characteristics of learning environment at school, quality of
teaching staff and educational material, student characteristics and learning climate, and political
and economic structure of the country as potential true predictors of academic achievement. Our
sample covers 41 countries and data used in our analysis are collected from 282,461 students
distributed in 9,317 schools worldwide. Multiple linear regressions are developed and analyzed
using stepwise estimation techniques.

According to Kenneth Nwanua Ohei, Roelien Brink (2019) the use of instructional web
technology tools and applications in higher education systems (HES) has gained prominence in
the education sector in recent decades. There is a realisation that traditional teaching and learning
methods are not adequate to support students’ interactive learning engagements, which indirectly
influences their academic performance. It is thus envisaged that incorporating and encouraging
the use of instructional information and communication technologies (ICTs) in education may
serve as an extra tool to support students’ academic goals as these technologies offer them
platforms for diverse learning experiences and a better way to engage with their studies. The aim
of this study was, therefore, to explore the usefulness of instructional web technologies in South
Africa’s higher education system to support students’ academic success.

This paper explores the impact of ICT and ICT-based education on students' academic
achievement in South Africa. The main goal of the study was to explore the usefulness of
instructional web technologies in South African higher education system to support
students' academic achievement. It is hoped that incorporating and encouraging the use of
instructional information and communication technologies (ICTs) in education may serve as an
extra tool to help students achieve their academic goals. This paper explores access to ICT,
physical characteristics of learning environment at school, quality of teaching staff and
educational material, student characteristics and learning climate, and political and economic
structure of the country as potential true predictors of academic achievement.
