Abstract:
The paper investigates the effectiveness of incorporating technology-based resources in the teaching and learning of literature in English at the FCT College of Education, Zuba, Abuja, Nigeria. Recognizing the transformative potential of technology in education, the study aims to evaluate its impact on student engagement, comprehension, and academic performance in literature. It addresses the current practices of technology integration, the level of digital literacy among educators and students, and the challenges and opportunities presented by technological resources in literature education. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, utilizing surveys and interviews to gather quantitative and qualitative data from students and faculty. Key research questions focus on the integration of technology in literature instruction, its effects on students' learning outcomes, and the digital literacy levels that influence this integration. The findings are expected to provide valuable insights for educators and policymakers, contributing to the enhancement of pedagogical practices and informing future research in similar educational contexts. The study underscores the necessity of empirical investigation into technology's role in literature education, aiming to bridge the gap between traditional teaching methods and innovative technological applications.
