particularly in facilitating the learning process. (Kibirige, 2023). Fully functional amenities in
schools have been reported to assist students in studying more effectively, thereby
According to a report by Kibirige (2023), having all the necessary amenities enhances
infrastructure, funding, administrative and technical support, time constraints, and teachers'
Similarly, the integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into teaching
like Uganda. (Caratiquit & Caratiquit, 2022). Issues such as the absence of ICT textbooks,
internet connectivity, and computer access hinder the effective integration of ICT into STEM
Despite the evolving nature of technology, challenges persist, particularly regarding access to
the Internet and the utilization of technology for learning purposes. (Munje & Jita, 2020).
Efforts to address these challenges include enhancing network capabilities for e-learning and
promoting technology equity among learners. (Munje & Jita, 2020). Additionally,
strengthening monitoring and assessment processes can help identify contextual issues and
schools and provide ICT infrastructure and training to educators. (Barakabitze, Lazaro, & et
In terms of student coping mechanisms with ICT resources, individual differences highlight
the need for digital resilience. (Pan, Lan, Yong Tan & et al., 2024). The Digital Resilience
Framework encompasses coping mechanisms, recovery, and learning from online risk
including the use of ICT in learning processes. (Siemens, 2008; Dunaway, 2011; Kropf,
2013).
This study on ICT facilities benefits both schools and students, particularly in addressing
challenges and improving access to technology. The findings are anticipated to benefit senior
high school students, providing insights into their challenges with ICT facilities.
It is in this light that the researchers would like to answer the following specific
questions;
1. What are the challenges of the participants regarding the school's ICT Facilities
2. What are the coping strategies of the participants to overcome the challenges on the
3. What are the support mechanisms needed by the participants to overcome the challenges of
