Abstract
The present study aims to explore the attitudes of college students in West Bengal toward ICT integration in education. Students' attitudes were assessed to variables such as gender, locality, and the type of streams. The study involved a sample of 298 students from 3 colleges across one district. A descriptive survey method with a quantitative approach was employed. An attitude scale specifically designed for college students was employed to gather data, and the analysis utilized methods such as mean scores, standard deviation, and t-tests. The findings indicate that college students generally have a favourable attitude toward ICT integration in education. Additionally, significant differences were observed in attitudes based on gender and locality. A significant difference in attitudes was observed between male and female students, apart from this, the difference between science and arts is found. The study highlights the importance of raising awareness about the benefits of ICT in education by implementing innovative programs and initiatives in colleges. Such efforts could encourage students to adopt ICT tools more effectively, enhancing their overall learning experience.
