Study on Contributive Effects of Factors Militating Against Effective Use of Authoring Tools in Teaching and Learning

Abstract

Teachers in various disciplines of education have grown more relevant and competent in their instruction delivery as a result of the emergence of information, communication, and various technology. Many, as opposed to a single writing tool, are freely available on the internet for teachers to use at their convenience time, even if they have no prior understanding of coding or programming. We revealed on a 4-week descriptive survey study involving students from Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education, Michael Otedola College of Primary Education, and Lagos State University in Lagos State, Nigeria, in this study. The primary difficulties inhibiting the successful use of authoring tools in the teaching and learning process were highlighted. We discovered that SES (Socio-Economic Status), limited computer skill, time constraints, data plan costs, unstable power supply, and knowledge of the tools' existence all have a significant impact on their utilisation. Finally, we suggested that instructors benefit from power stability, greater social well-being, and periodic seminars and workshops, among other things, to help them enjoy the modern technological era.
