Abstract:

This study explores educators’ perceptions of technology integration in the classroom as a basis for an action plan. Investigating teaching strategies, computer technology experience, confidence in integration, and technology’s impact on learning, the research also assesses university support in terms of resources and professional development. Using a descriptive-correlational method with a survey questionnaire, the findings indicate strong agreement (average weighted mean of 3.71) with technology integration and university support (average weighted mean of 3.35). The study establishes a significant relationship between educators’ perceptions of integration and university support. Educators emphasize the need for ongoing professional development through webinars and workshops. The study recommends regular sessions to enhance ICT skills, addressing specific needs and empowering educators. This research serves as a valuable foundation for a comprehensive action plan in educational institutions, guiding future initiatives for effective technology integration.
