Technology integration on infrastructure to support educational needs in a college in Ghana Available to Purchase

This study examines how technology integration influences existing infrastructure to meet educational needs at a college of education in Ghana, with emphasis on improvements in teaching, learning, and sustainability. A quantitative research approach with a descriptive survey design was employed. A structured questionnaire was administered to 412 respondents, faculty, administrators, and students, selected through stratified random sampling. SPSS was used for descriptive and inferential data analysis to assess stakeholder’s perceptions. Results revealed that 60% of respondents believed the infrastructure inadequately supported educational needs, while 40% disagreed. Technology integration was rated moderately effective in modernising infrastructure (mean = 2.51), highly effective in supporting teaching and learning (mean = 3.65), and less effective in enhancing sustainability (mean = 2.13). A moderate positive correlation (R = 0.456) indicated that technology integration explained 20.8% of the variance in infrastructure effectiveness. Technologies adopted included smart classrooms, e-learning platforms, internet of things, and building information modelling. This study offers key insights into how technology integration enhances educational infrastructure in support of Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) (quality education) and SDG 9 (industry, innovation, and infrastructure). It highlights the need for strategic, data-driven investments to modernise learning environments across sub-Saharan Africa.
