Technical and Infrastructural Preparedness on ICT Adoption by Tutors in Public Technical Training Institutions in Kenya

This study examines the technical and infrastructural readiness of public Technical Training Institutions (TTIs) in Kenya in adopting Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Guided by the Diffusion of Innovation Theory, the research utilizes a cross-sectional descriptive and explanatory design based on a positivist paradigm. A total of 383 tutors and principals from 24 public TTIs participated in the study through structured questionnaires. The results indicate that both technical and infrastructural preparedness significantly influence ICT adoption. The study recommends targeted tutor recruitment, continuous ICT training, and sustained investment in infrastructure to promote technology integration in teaching.

Abstract

This study examines the technical and infrastructural readiness of public Technical Training Institutions (TTIs) in Kenya in adopting Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Guided by the Diffusion of Innovation Theory, the research utilizes a cross-sectional descriptive and explanatory design based on a positivist paradigm. A total of 383 tutors and principals from 24 public TTIs participated in the study through structured questionnaires. The results indicate that both technical and infrastructural preparedness significantly influence ICT adoption. The study recommends targeted tutor recruitment, continuous ICT training, and sustained investment in infrastructure to promote technology integration in teaching.
