Abstract:
The study examined the Integration of Information and Communication Technology
in teaching in Senior High Schools. The study focused on the Kumasi
Girls Senior High School in Ghana. The study had two objectives. The first
objective examined the extent to which the attitude of teachers influences the
integration of ICT in teaching. The second objective examined the gender
differences in the integration of ICT in Senior High Schools. A descriptive
survey design and quantitative approach were adopted for the study, descriptive
statistics using means and inferential statistics using standard regression were
used for analysing the data. Hypotheses were developed using the diffusion of
innovation theory. Data was collected through self-administered questionnaires
which were distributed to the study population. The testing of hypothesis was
made possible through the use of structured equation modelling. Findings
revealed that teachers’ attitude had a significant positive relationship with ICT
integration. The study further concluded that there was no significant difference
in gender acceptance of ICT integration in teaching.
