The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic has required schools in Nigeria to embrace remote learning using technology solutions, in this case, Microsoft Teams, to effectively engage students. This study, therefore, aimed to reveal teachers’ perception of the use of Microsoft Teams for remote learning. The descriptive survey research design was adopted. The participants in the study were 51 teachers who were randomly selected using convenient sampling technique. E-questionnaire was used in the collection of data. Descriptive statistics of frequency counts, simple percentages, mean and standard deviations were used to analyze the data. Results revealed that teachers’ perception of effectiveness of Microsoft Teams for assignment and grading, for teacher and student interaction, and for classroom organisation was very good. The result obtained revealed that Microsoft Teams was effective in addressing some of the major challenges encountered by teachers during remote learning which includes students being often on other websites and poor student engagement. It was concluded that Microsoft Teams was effective for smooth interaction between teacher and students. Its use enhanced classroom organization and consequently facilitated teaching and learning process. The study encourages wider adoption of the application by schools.

The internet presents numerous opportunities for universities to reach a wide audience with timely and relevant information. This study examines the potential impact of the internet on reaching university admission candidates, identifying application challenges, and assessing the conduct of Post Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (Post-UTME) tests in a South-West Nigeria University. The population for the study comprised applicants who took the Post-UTME test at the Computer-Based Test (CBT) Centre, University of Medical Sciences, Ondo. The study utilized internet adverts and surveys to disseminate information and gather feedback from participants. Results showed that the majority of applicants were reached through internet digital adverts with no difficulties encountered during the application process. The university's Facebook page had the highest views and engagements from admission seekers. The conduct of the Post-UTME test was commended by most applicants. The study concluded that the Internet can facilitate increased participation and easy assessment of Post-UTME tests in the university. It recommends that universities should explore the potential benefits of internet adverts and surveys in disseminating admission-related information, extracting feedback from stakeholders, and sensitizing the public about university programs.

The study was carried out to determine the impact of Interactive Smart Board (ISB) usage on technical students’ learning outcomes (achievement and motivation). The study adopted a quasi-experimental design and was carried out at First Technical University, Ibadan. The study's population consisted of 276 students enrolled in GST 004, with a sample size of 90. GST 004 was taught using ISB, and a pre-test and post-test were performed. The mean, standard deviation, t-test, and p-value were used to record and interpret the results. A questionnaire was also distributed to assess pupils' motivation. The results showed improved achievement scores and increased levels of motivation by the students who were taught using ISB, compared with those students who use the traditional method only. Results obtained from a pre-test/post-test revealed that students in the experimental group (taught using ISB) had a higher mean achievement score (23.06) and a higher mean gain score (15.27) than the control group (taught using the traditional method; mean achievement score 9.92, mean gain score 7.34). Further results from a motivation questionnaire showed that the experimental group had significantly higher scores than the control group on all three subscales of the questionnaire (Procedural Skills Rating, Interest/Enjoyment, and Perceived Choice), with the highest difference being for the Procedural Skills Rating subscale. The overall motivation score for the experimental group was also much higher than that of the control group. These findings suggest that ISB technologies have the potential to transform educational practices in Nigeria as the country strives to provide students with a quality education that meets the best global standards while also recasting itself as an innovative, efficient, and adaptable economy capable of competing in our modern world.
