  • Abstract:
  • Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is one of the most powerful and influential creation of human being that pervades all fields of human life including education. ICT becomes an inevitable component of higher education institutions and students in 21st century must enable to handle the technological gadgets and have the ICT awareness for meeting the immediate demands of education as well as workplaces. This study attempted to ascertain the level of ICT awareness among the college students and to study the ICT facilities available in the colleges of Dhemaji District, Assam. Descriptive survey method was used and data collected from a sample of 200 students from four colleges by using a Students’ Response Questionnaire. The study found that government provincialised colleges have sufficient ICT facilities, but the same was not found in non-provincialised college. Majority of the students (52%) were found to be moderately aware of ICT use, whereas 25% of them low awareness of the same. Only (26%) of college students have undergone computer courses and 34% of them used internet. There is no significant difference between male and female students, and students of provincialised and non-provincialised colleges, but significant difference found between urban and rural students. ICT facilities in the colleges should be enhanced and used for students’ learning.
