ABSTRACT
This study
investigated the relationship between availability and utilization of
technological innovations and administrative staff job accomplishment in
Nigerian Police secondary schools, Nigeria. The study adopted a correlational
research design. A sample of 242 administrative staff of Nigerian Police
secondary schools were used for the study. Census sampling technique was used
for the study because the entire population sample was drawn. The instruments
for data collection were availability and utilization of technological
innovations questionnaire (AUTIQ) and administrative staff job accomplishment
questionnaire (ASJAQ). The instruments were validated by three experts: two
from the department of Educational Management and one from Measurement and
Evaluation, all in Michael Okpara University of Agriculture Umudike. The stability
aspect of the reliability of the instrument was determined using Pearson
Product Moment Correlation with a coefficient of 0.75 and 0.95 for availability
and utilization of technological innovations questionnaire (AUTIQ) and
administrative staff job accomplishment questionnaire (ASJAQ), respectively.
Eight briefed research assistants helped in data collection. The data collected
were used for analysis. Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Coefficient was
used to answer the seven research questions raised for the study, while linear
regression was used to test the corresponding null hypotheses formulated and
tested at 0.05 level of significance. The results showed that availability of
social media, computers/accessories and teleconference gadgets relates with
administrative staff job accomplishment to a high positive extent. Similarly, utilization
of social media, computer/accessories and teleconference gadgets relates with
administrative staff job accomplishment in Nigerian police secondary schools to
a very high positive extent; and there was significant relationship between
them. Consequently, it was concluded that availability and utilization of
technological innovations have significant relationship with administrative
staff job accomplishment to a very high positive extent in Nigerian Police
secondary schools. Based on the findings of the study, it was recommended among
others that stakeholders in Police education should encourage utilization of
technological innovation facilities in Police schools by providing adequate
training to teachers and school administrators, who will in turn encourage
students to be ICT-compliant which will help them in external examinations that
have become computer-best tests (CBT).
