Abstract
Amidst the post-covid era, blended teaching has become increasingly prevalent worldwide, necessitating educational system changes. This study aimed to assess teachers' competence in using Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools for instructional delivery during the new normal era. The study utilized a quantitative survey design with a sample size of 150 secondary school teachers from private and public in Osun State, Nigeria. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire. The study revealed that most respondents lacked adequate competence in sustaining the use of computers to assess learners and in utilizing PowerPoint presentations during the teaching-learning process in the new normal era. The findings further revealed that insufficient laptops/notebooks, internet-connected computers, and technical support for teachers hindered the sustainability of ICT use in the new normal. Overall, the study concluded that many teachers lack the necessary competency to sustain the use of computer applications and tools, which may undermine teaching effectiveness during the new normal.
