Abstract

The utilization of ICT resources has the potential to improve teaching and learning, according to the literature. To ascertain the possible influence of e-books on students' achievement in physics, no empirical research has been done in Nigeria. Hence the need for this study. Utilizing a simple repeated measures research design, this study was driven by a quantitative research methodology. The study included 58 senior secondary two (2) physics students who were randomly selected from secondary schools in the Nsukka Education zone. The Physics Achievement Test (PAT), which has been trial tested and face and content validated, was used to collect the data. The internal consistency dependability for the PAT components was .76. The repeated measures analysis of variance was used to analyze the data collected. It was discovered that the learners' access to e-books significantly impacted (p < .05) how well they performed in Physics. This research finding has implications for counselling in that teachers and their schools need to be provided educational guidance and couselling by the librarian-counsellor on the legal and ethical implications of using ICT resources like e-books to deliver physics instructions in schools.
