The aim of this study is to investigate
technological competences and technological tools usage
by primary school teachers. The inability of primary
school teachers to substitute traditional teaching
methods with modern technological tools and
applications during COVID-19 motivated the
researchers to carry out this study. The study made use
of a survey research design. Technology implementation
and computer use for instructional teachers sub scales
were used to collect data. Related literature was
reviewed based on skills and knowledge of teachers and
the various technologies used for instruction. The
samples were 398 teachers who are teaching using ICT
and the simple random sampling method was employed
to select these respondents. Data was collected from
teacher-respondents using tables, percentages, charts,
mean, standard deviations and one sample t-test. The
results showed an average level of technological
competences possess by primary school teachers and
types of technological tools used for teaching and
learning. These results indicate that primary school
educators and instructors lack the competences to
install software on their computers and faced difficulties
in using more advanced technologies. The study
strongly recommends effective in-service training for
teachers, easy access and connection to network services
as well as the provision of technical assistance to
schools. This will enable teachers to effectively acquire
skills and knowledge for technology integration in
education. Primary schools and teachers should also be
equipped with modern technologies especially during
this period of COVID-19.
