TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION IN THE TEACHING OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT BY PRACTICING LECTURERS

Abstract

The study investigated factors affecting technology integration in teaching human resource management by public university lecturers. The authors adopted the descriptive survey design. The study’s target population comprised all the one hundred and sixty members who teach human resource management in their respective universities. Data were collected through a questionnaire. It was established that the availability and accessibility of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) facilities significantly affect the integration of ICT facilities in teaching human resource management. Furthermore, ICT facilities were found to be inadequate and the extent of use by lecturers was not encouraging. The authors recommend that the government and management of public universities should not only organize further ICT training programs for lecturers but encourage and motivate them to use ICT facilities in their teaching.
