SANDWICH STUDENTSHIP AND INFORMATION COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY (ICT) UTILIZATION


ABSTRACT

This study investigated sandwich studentship and information and communication technology at University of Lagos, Akoka Lagos. Background information on sandwich studentship and information and communication technology (ICT) were provided in this study. The descriptive research survey design was applied in collecting relevant information from the selected respondents. This was done through the use of the questionnaire and personal observation with the students who participate in this study. The personal data collected from the sampled principals and vice-principals were analysed using the simple percentage frequency counts, while the four null hypotheses formulated in the study were analysed, using the independent t-test statistical tool at 0.05 level of significance. The results obtained showed that that there is a significant relationship between information communication technology and students’ learning behaviour in University of Lagos, that there is a significant relationship between information communication technology and students’ academic achievement in school at University of Lagos, and finally, it was indicated in hypothesis three that there is a significant difference between the perception of students of information communication technology from that of their teachers. Based on the findings in this study, it is recommended that Students should endeavour to embrace the use of information communication technology, especially, the sandwich students, the present circular at various levels of education should be reviewed to reflect information communication technology application, communication and utilization skills, every university should internally work out ways and means of properly computerizing her functions. The committee of vice-chancellors of Nigerian Universities should pick interest in the programme of proper computerization of Nigerian Universities in view of the enormous benefits derivable from it. Furthermore, possible suggestion towards further studies were offered.

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1    Background to the Study

The predominant means of instruction has traditionally been through verbal medium, either as spoken lecture or written text. As more instructional resources of many different media types become available to students, especially the sandwich ones through the internet, there is a need for educators to understand when these sources may be used effectively for instruction, as well as a need for students to develop an additional set of literacy skills in order to learn from these sources (Anyakoha, 1990).

Tyner (2000) argued that in the information age, the concept of literacy has been simultaneously broadened and splinted into many literacies in part because “the all purpose word literacy seems hopelessly anachronistic, tainted with the nostalgic ghost of a fleeting industrial age. The term information communication technology is among several terms that have been associated with literacy to emphasize that literacy extends beyond reading and writing the alphabetic codes, and should include a variety of audio-visual forms of representation. Associating information communication technology with the literacy also highlights a belief among many scholars and educators that conceptions of literacy or studentship and how it is developed should not focus exclusively on printed materials but should include electronic media that have moved into the mainstream of communication especially at the end of the twentieth century.

Implicit in these views is that research and practice related to literacy must be transformed to accommodate new ways of accessing, process and using information by sandwich students generally by and the sandwich students in particular (Aaron, 1997). Information encompasses a wide range variety of things ranging from oral and printed words, figures, statements, files and documents to such intangible elements as sound signals, rays and waves. Whatever the form information takes, the essence of information is that it conveys messages.

UNESCO (1979), defined information simply as “set of data recorded in a methodical manner” which includes: any item of knowledge capable of facilitating the operation of a system; and any numerical or alpha-numerical quantity processed by the machine, the aggregate of information constitutes the data and results of a problem. According to (Adamson, 1998), claims the term information technology refers to the application of scientific knowledge. Information communication technology , therefore can be defined as the acquisition, processing, storage and dissemination of vocal, pictoral, textual and numerical information by a micro-based combination of computing and telecommunication.

Telecommunication is a special kind of communication in which information is conveyed over a long distance. Information communication technology (ICT) also refers to the more efficient and effective way of storing, accessing and updating information than processes involving paper. In the recent time, sandwich students, most especially, have benefited from the use of information communication technology (ICT) such as computer, television, telephone and the internet as a veritable sources of information in their academic career or pursuit.

Uzoma (1999) opined that sandwich students, andmost adolescents use the information communication technology especially the internet to gather vital educational information or materials, register their courses of study, check their results of JAMB, NECO, GCE, POST UME etc. Onuoha (2000), posited that the advent of information technology has made education more simple and easy for students especially, the students in the sandwich studies  at University of Lagos. Onuoha claimed that information communication technology has helped sandwich students in many ways such as project writing and collection of necessary information leading to effective studies. Onuoha further stated that information communication technology has created a remarkable balance and effectiveness in the daily activities of students mostly the sandwich students who are in the habits of using the computer and the internets to carry out faster storage and retrieval of information in the academic environment or school.

As Adelekunnu (1994) puts it, information communication technology (ICT) can be used to assist sandwich students to get along with others, achieving self-reliance and educational success. Also, it can help them to achieve professional success and to adhere to societal values and norms. With information technology, sandwich students achieve high academic laurels in school, especially at the University of Lagos.

1.2    Statement of the Problem

Information communication technology as an effective means of storing, accessing, retrieving or collecting vital information is often times used by sandwich students to carry out their educational activities. With the advent of information technology, sandwich students access information that lead them to successful academic and professional achievement. Nevertheless, information communication technology seems to have corrupted students, especially, the adolescents who are in sandwich studies. For instance, some sandwich students are often seen glued for hours to the television and the internet watching or viewing pornographic films or pictures that are capable of bending their minds and distorting their dispositions. Studies have shown (Asobie, Achizie and Anywanwu., 1995), that some sandwich students who browse the internets often are more corrupt than those who do not.

Sandwich students who use the internet often or watch the television involved in sexual promiscuity, examination malpractices, stealing and other vices or indisciplines that are always carried out in the school, especially at the University of Lagos. In recent times, many sandwich students have been caught using Global System Mobile Network (GSM) phones to carry out or perpetrate examination malpractices; to connect friends and associates in crimes.

Both adults and students are found to use the GSM phones to tell assorted kinds of lies and deceit in the larger society and this has made corruption to be well rooted in the society in which we live. The more advanced manner in which television programmes are aired and commendable, but many of the programmes show very bad and aggressive films and many sandwich students watch them after which they start acting what they have seen and this has affected their psyche negatively.

1.3    Purpose of the Study

The major purpose of this study is to carry out an investigation on the sandwich studentship and information communication technology utilization at University of Lagos.

Other purposes include the following:

1.            Examine the influence that information communication technology has influence on sandwich students’ behaviour.

4.            Evaluate the socio-economic status of students who often use information communication technology in their educational career.

5.            Determine the gender difference in the use of ICT among sandwich students.

1.4    Research Questions

The following research questions were raised in this study:

1.            To what extent can the influence of information communication technology on sandwich students’ learning behaviour be examined?

2.            Is there any relationship between information communication technology and students’ academic achievement?

3.            Do sandwich students constant use information communication technology more often than their counterparts in part-time studies?

4.            Do students from high socio-economic homes use ICT often than their counterparts from low-socio-economic homes?

5.            Is there any gender difference in the use of information communication technology among sandwich students?
