| 520 | |a In Nigeria, university authorities appear not to lay adequate emphasis on the application of computer information technologies to teaching. The needed equipment is not often available. Most lecturers do not have the needed computer skills. This study, therefore, investigated the extent to which computer-based instructional technologies could enhance teaching and learning effectiveness with a view to making recommendations to policy makers and university authorities in the country on the need to provide and use Computer-Based Instructional Technologies (CBIT) to teach in at universities. The study adopted survey research design and used the multi-stage sampling procedure to select six out of thirteen faculties and 300 out of 1,156 lecturers at the University of Ibadan, Nigeria. A questionnaire was developed for data collection. The multiple regressions were used to analyze data, using a 0.05 level of significance. Result revealed that the application of Computer-Based Instructional Technologies to teaching contributed significantly to teaching effectiveness. | ||
