Sindhuja Sirigeri*

The purpose of this study was to examine factors associated with the attitude of educators in the use of Information and Communication Technology. The sample consisted of 40 educators, from primary and secondary schools. Information was collected through questionnaires. Data collected were analysed using mean and standard deviation. Starting from the technological and pedagogic competencies in ICT, the study obtained educators’ consistent competencies profile with four increasing levels: laggards, early adopters, late adopters, and venturesome. Based on the findings the study concluded that educators had a positive attitude towards ICT. However, the study also concluded that despite a positive attitude towards ICT, the use of ICT tools in class is scarce and not being adequately subjected to innovative processes. The study recommended that factors such as competence and skills needs to consider by the department of education by providing compulsory training for educators.
