Abstract
This paper reports the need to enrich the teaching and learning of the English language and Literature through the use of ICT and group methodology. The research was quasi-experimental in approach. A structured questionnaire using three-point scales was administered to 30 respondents from two schools each in Kaduna, Kano, and Zamfara State (meaning 5 respondents from each school). The questionnaire was used in collecting data for analysis. Data were analysed using statistical tools of frequency (F) and percentage (%). The average age of the participants was 25 and above. The results emanating from this revealed that using ICT and group methodology has been reported to be an effective teaching method for improving students’ attitudes toward English and Literature acquisition. This paper however recommends the adoption and adaptation of using ICT and group methods for regular conduct of both face-to-face and online teaching.
