THE EFFECTIVE UTILIZATION OF ICT IN TEACHING AND LEARNING OF CHRISTIAN RELIGIOUS STUDIES

Abstract

This study examines the effective utilization of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in teaching and learning of Christian Religious Studies (CRS) in schools. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving 120 teachers and 300 students from 10 schools. Results show significant improvements in student engagement, understanding, and retention of CRS concepts through ICT integration. However, challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, teacher training, and digital resources hinder effective ICT utilization. Recommendations include investing in ICT infrastructure, providing teacher training, and developing digital CRS resources.
