Abstract
This study examined the factors influencing the integration of ICTs in teaching/learning at Mukuju
Core Primary Teachers’ College. Data were collected from staff and students at the College—using
questionnaires and focus group discussions. The findings were that tutors’ and students’ conversance with
ICTs, attitude towards the technologies and access to the internet influenced the former’s integration of ICTs
in teaching/learning. Therefore, it is recommended that the tutors, and their students, be trained/retrained in
the use of ICTs and that the College’s connectivity to the internet is improved.
