Abstract
In the digital era, the integration of Information and Communication
Technology (ICT) into educational curricula has emerged as a critical factor
for enhancing academic performance and preparing students for the demands of the
modern workforce. This paper explores the effectiveness of the National
Certificate in Education (NCE) Technical curriculum in Nigeria with respect to
ICT-based academic activities. It delves into the curriculum’s alignment with
contemporary ICT standards, examining its capacity to support effective
integration of technological tools and practices in technical education.
Employing a mixed-methods approach, this study incorporates a thorough analysis
of curriculum content, surveys of educators and students, and interviews with
key stakeholders to assess the adequacy of the NCE Technical curriculum. The
investigation seeks to uncover the extent to which the curriculum facilitates
ICT integration, identifies the challenges faced by NCE-awarding institutions, and
evaluates the overall impact on the quality of technical education. Through
this comprehensive assessment, the paper aims to provide insights into the
current state of ICT integration in Nigerian technical education and offer
recommendations for enhancing curriculum effectiveness in the digital age.
