Primary Research Question

The ability to utilize a computer and basic information and communication

technology tools is now considered part of what it means to be literate in the modern
technological environment. Reading and writing are no longer the only requirements for
literacy. Therefore, key indicators of the delivery of education services are the
acquisition, deployment, and best use of information and communication technology
(ICT) facilities.

The computer has proven to be, possibly, the most revolutionary tool ever used
in education, and it is quickly turning into a necessity for both teachers and students
(Ibeneme, 2013). Modern academia employs ICT for almost everything, including
recruiting students, facilitating student applications, admitting applicants, creating
instructional materials, imparting information, evaluating students’ learning, and
managing discipline and administration in schools. (Oke, 2012).

The proponent will seek to determine the adequacy and utilization of computers
in learning of ICT – CSS students. The focus of the study is to provide an answer to the
main research question as the researcher will progress into their study.
 How adequate are ICT computers available for learning for the ICT students? To
what extent can they utilize these resources?

Objectives of the Study

The proponent seeks for long-term goals in working on this study. The main
objective of the study is to know how adequate are computers available for ICT – CSS
students’ learning. While this is being stated, the proponent has also sub-objectives that
they are driven to achieve as the study will continue. Hence, the following will be stated:

A. to know the importance of computers in learning of ICT

B. to find out how is the adequacy of the computers can affect the students in
terms of their learning and development in the subject

C. to determine how will the students benefit in the adequacy of the resources

Specific Research Questions

 ICT makes it possible to communicate, interact, collaborate, compute, visualize,
simulate, and model data. Additionally, it makes it easier to gather and filter data,
compile information, and derive knowledge. It also makes mentoring and tutoring more
effective. Multimedia and multimodal applications are instantiated by combining all of
the aforementioned elements.

ICT resources must be fully deployed and used for effective education in these
domains. The availability and sufficiency of ICT facilities are mostly dependent on
funding, although public policy, teacher orientation, and teacher training may have an
impact on utilization.

The proponents also seek to answer the following questions:

1. In what fields and terms will the students benefit from the adequacy
of these resources?

2. What are the ways and plans to assure that the resources will
continue to be sufficient as time goes by?

3. How can learners fully utilize the available resources for obtaining
knowledge and use them to provide more information and resources in learning
ICT?

Theoretical Support
 Acosta (2023) contends that many university students and faculty make only
limited formal academic use of computer technology and its suitability as learning tools,
despite significant efforts to position information and communication technology (ICT)
as a central tenet of university teaching and learning.

Although this is sometimes attributed to a number of operational shortcomings on

the part of students, professors, and universities, this takes into account the broader
social relations supporting the relatively restrained use of technology in higher
education.

Chiappe (2023) analyzes how the higher education community may contest
these prevalent constructs of a peripheral and limited usage of ICT. It does so by
reflecting on the way that educational technologists might encourage a more expansive
and empowered use of computer technology in academic settings.
