Abstract:
The study examined the attitudes, challenges and suggestions towards ICT-based learning among college students with a sample of 100 students selected through simple random sampling. Results revealed that 68.00 percent were female and 32.00 percent were male and almost all students (97.00%) owned smartphones used for academic purposes. Students exhibited a highly positive attitude towards ICT-based learning, particularly in critical thinking and lifelong learning (Mean = 3.93) followed by skill development and self-learning (Mean = 3.88). Major challenges included poor internet connectivity (60.00%), device access issues (11.00%), and time management (9.00%). The most frequently suggested improvement was better internet connectivity, mentioned by 41.00 percent of students, emphasising the need for stable and high-speed networks for uninterrupted access to digital learning resources. The findings highlight that while learners recognise ICT’s potential to improve engagement and learning outcomes, inadequate digital infrastructure and skills remain barriers. Strengthening institutional ICT facilities and providing continuous training can enhance effective digital learning among students.
