dc.description.abstract |
The integration of information and communication technologies (ICTs) into teaching depends on teachers’ viewpoints manifested as concerns. This paper investigates teachers’ concerns in selected Lesotho schools regarding the new reform namely, the integration of ICTs into physical science instruction. Data were collected from a random cluster sample using the stages of concern questionnaire with an 8-point Likert scale. Statistical analysis software (SAS) was employed to analyse the data to get the descriptive results and the ANOVA of the hypothesis. The percentile score for the informational self-concerns was the highest at 87.5. This demonstrates that the teachers were concerned about gaining knowledge of ICT integration. These teachers therefore require ongoing support providing more information on available ICTs and their potential to improve teaching |
