The study adopted a descriptive survey research design. A questionnaire titled “Availability, Utilization and Management of Information and Communication Technology in teaching English Language in Secondary Schools” (AUMICTSS) was used for data collection. Twenty randomly selected secondary schools from Kaduna metropolis were used for the study. A total of 100 teachers participated by responding to the items on the questionnaire. The data collected was analysed using frequencies and percentages. The findings of the study revealed that there is a dearth of ICT facilities in secondary schools in Kaduna as there are only very few of such facilities available in most of the schools visited. It also revealed that most teachers were not competent in the use of these facilities as the management of these facilities requires training and re-training. It was recommended as a matter of urgency that government should provide more ICT facilities in schools and ensure the provision of electricity in every secondary school for optimal utilization of these facilities. Teachers should equally be trained and re-trained regularly in the use and management of ICT facilities for effective English Language curriculum delivery.  \nKeywords: assessment, ICT, Nigeria  \n1. Introduction/Background of the study  \nICT is an acronym that stands for Information and communications Technology. There is no universally accepted definition of ICT because the concepts, methods and applications involved in ICT are constantly evolving on an almost daily basis. ICT covers any product that will store, retrieve, manipulate, transmit or receive information electronically ina digital form. For example, personal computers, digital television, email, internet etc.  \nThe field of education has been affected by ICTs, which have undoubtedly affected teaching and research. A great deal of research has proven the benefits of ICT in improving quality of education (Yusuf, 2012 Warschaur, 2000) . As a result of this, developed nations have integrated ICT into their educational system. Ayodeji (2004) observed that there are developments in the Nigerian education sector which indicate some level of ICT application in secondary schools in Nigeria. They traced the introduction of computer education in secondary schools to 1988, when Nigerian government enacted a policy on computer education. The Federal Government of Nigeria in the National Policy on Education (2007) recognizes the prominent role of ICTs in the modern world and has integrated ICTs into education in Nigeria. To actualize this goal, the document states that government will provide basic infrastructure and training at the primary school. At the junior secondary school, computer education is made a pre-vocational elective and is","cbCaimziyChBj4JY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimziyChBj4JY","pdf",161196,"English","# Introduction/Background of the study\n# Review of Related Literature","[{\"question\":\"What was the focus of the study in Kaduna State?\",\"answer\":\"The study focused on the availability, utilization, and management of ICT facilities for teaching English language in secondary schools in Kaduna State, Nigeria.\"},{\"question\":\"How was data collected and analyzed?\",\"answer\":\"Data were collected using the AUMICTSS questionnaire and analyzed using frequencies and percentages.\"},{\"question\":\"What key findings were reported about ICT resources and teacher readiness?\",\"answer\":\"The findings indicated a lack of ICT facilities in most visited schools and that many teachers were not competent in using these facilities, requiring training and re-training.\"}]","Advances in Language and Literary Studies - Vol. 4 No. 1 - Assessment Of The Availability, Utilization And Management Of ICT Facilities In Teaching English Language In Secondary Schools In Kaduna State, Nigeria | PDF",1792067870,18]
