Abstract

The Internet has transformed people's way of life and their access to education in the 21st century. The use of digital technologies in education has become extremely prevalent. The teaching-learning environment has shifted dramatically with the advent of ICT. Although some institutions are still wedged to traditional teaching learning procedures, refusing to incorporate technological tools in their teaching and learning. Their teaching-learning is based on old techniques. The unexpected outburst of Covid-19 in March 2020 shuttered the entire world. This sudden outbreak revolutionizes the whole educational procedures overnights. Many academic institutions that were earlier resistant to use ICT in teaching-learning were compelled to use digital technologies in their teaching-learning process, the only option available. The article focused on the importance of ICT tools in the teaching and learning process, with accompanying challenges of the implementation. It further suggested ideas for teachers and learners about how to cope with these difficulties and obstacles.
