Digital technology is an important tool of the 21st century and has consequently brought significant changes to the mode of teaching and instructional delivery in tertiary education institutions. This research aims at investigating the utilisation of digital technology tools for instructional delivery in Federal College of Education, Abeokuta (FCEAB) in Ogun State, Nigeria. One hundred academic staff of the FCEAB were randomly selected for this study, self structured questionnaire was used for data collection and data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics of frequency count and percentages. The research revealed that the most available digital technology tools for teaching were Laptop computers, Projectors and Smartboards but despite the availability, they were not optimally utilized as a result of identified barriers, which includes unavailability of regular electrical power supply and limited digital literacy skills among academic staff. This research recommends the use of digital technology tools be encouraged and supported by the authority of the institution; continuous training of lecturers on the use of emerging digital technology tools be promoted, also the problem of epileptic power supply being experienced in Nigerian tertiary education institutions be critically looked into with the aim of solving it.

Unlocking digital literacy practices of EFL teachersEkoPurwanti1
Digital literacy practice is necessary for education since information and communication technology has developed rapidly, resulting in shifting to the era of digital technology. The digital literacy practices in school and especially in classrooms are required for preparing 21st-century students. This study aims to (1) determine teachers’ perceptions of digital literacy practices in the level of classroom and school, (2) point out the digital literacy practices of English Foreign Language (EFL) teachers, and (3) investigate the challenges faced by the EFL teachers in applying digital literacy practices in the classroom. This study revealed the digital literacy practices of thirteen EFL Teachers in Yogyakarta using questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The results uncovered that digital literacy was highly supported, evidenced by the facility, equipment, and the connectivity provided in all schools with a variety of free internet access. In the classroom level, these teachers practised digital literacy by using some digital tools. In implementing digital literacy, the teachers faced some challenges, such as defective equipment and Internet access and intrinsic factors such as teachers’ knowledge in technology, their attitudes toward digital technology, and students’ commitment to apply digital literacy. These findings are followed by recommendations for schools, teachers, and further research.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

UTILIZATION OF DIGITAL
TECHNOLOGY TOOLS FOR
INSTRUCTIONAL DELIVERY IN
FEDERAL COLLEGE OF EDUCATION,
ABEOKUTA, OGUN STATE, NIGERIA.

Introduction
Nigerian Colleges of Education (CoE) plays a vital role in developing skillful, non-graduate
professionals and middle-level manpower for the nation’s primary and junior secondary
education.
CoE lecturers then become significant stakeholders in equipping in-service teachers with the
knowledge and skills required to undertake tasks that can increase the development and
progress of the nation.
Teaching, research and dissemination of new and existing knowledge are means through
which lecturers of CoE perform their academic roles.
But the circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have changed the mode of
instructional delivery in Nigeria CoE (Alasoluyi, 2021).
Teaching and instructional delivery with the utilization of different forms of available 21st-
century digital technologies such as Computers, Smartboards and the internet, have
become a requirement and necessity to ensure continued learning in this era of new normal
(Omodan & Ige, 2021).
Recent surveys observed that many college educators and lecturers in Nigeria are still not
maximizing the usage of digital technologies for instructional delivery and teaching
(Alasoluyi, 2021; Haleem, Javaid, Qadri and Suman, 2022).
This observation may not be unconnected with the lack of digital skills to use these
technologies and also the lack of institutional support to drive the process.
Hence the importance of this study.

Research Question 3
What are the barriers to the utilization of digital technology tools for instructional delivery?
10. Conclusion
1. Computers, Smartboards and Projector were available to lecturers in the Federal College of
Education, Abeokuta, the least available digital technology tool for teaching were multimedia
cameras and Learning Management System
2. The level of utilization of digital technology tools for teaching and instructional delivery
among the academic staff of the college was poor, only a little above average indicated that
they use computer to teach students.
The four least utilized digital technology tools were multimedia cameras, lecture capture
tools, virtual classroom platforms and online collaboration tools.
3. The non-utilization of digital technologies may not be unconnected with identified barriers
such as irregular electrical power supply, lack of institutional support and limited digital
literacy skills to use the tools.

11. Recommendation
1. The management of the college of education should endeavour to provide adequate institutional
support, acquisition and procurement of needed 21st-century digital technologies and facilities for
teaching and instructional delivery in various academic programmes.
2. Continuous and intensive training in the form of seminars and workshops on the usefulness and
ease of use of emerging digital technologies should be facilitated for lecturers in the colleges of
education to motivate them to attach importance to the use of digital technologies for teaching.
3. Realization of a digitized economy will be impossible without uninterruptable and regular power
to all different fragments of the economy, most especially education. The problem in the power
sector that has resulted in incessant power outages should be tackled just like it was done in
telecommunication. This alone will drive and promote a favourable utilization of digital
technologies and facilities for teaching and instructional delivery in the College of Education.
4. Effective routine maintenance of the available digital technology facilities should be taken with
utmost importance by stakeholders in the college; this will prolong the life span of the facilities.
