Abstract : This study determines the students’ perspective on Information, Communication, and Technology (ICT) practices in learning activities at the School of Vocation and Technical Education in Kwara State College of Education, Ilorin. This research adopted a quantitative descriptive research design, using a self-designed questionnaire. The population of this study includes all VTE students from various expertise programs in the College. A sample of 198 students was randomly selected. The results showed that as many as 88.71% of students agreed that the use of ICT was very useful in learning, finding learning material and completing assignments. ICT is also available to students at home and in a hands-on laboratory environment at school, where they can participate in educational activities. The capacity of VTE students to use Microsoft Office applications (such as Word, PowerPoint, and Excel) and the internet for communication and information retrieval demonstrates their high level of proficiency with ICT in the classroom. The research indicated that ICT is highly beneficial to students' learning activities at VTE Additionally, students believe that to compete in the modern workforce, they must learn how to use ICT.
