ABSTRACT
This research study investigated the impact of computer laboratory access on students' academic performance in computer science within public secondary schools in Benin City, Edo state. Surveying about a hundred and fifty (150) senior secondary school students from Ovia North East Local Government Area, the study examined the influence of computer laboratory access, the availability of functional facilities, and students' attitudes toward these resources.
The findings reveals a critical deficit in usable computer facilities, mirroring concerns from a previous study conducted nearly two decades ago. Moreover, the research establishes a significant correlation between students' academic performance and the accessibility and utilization of functional computer laboratories.
These findings underscore the need for improved funding, and equitable access to computer facilities, emphasizing the pivotal role of computer laboratories in enhancing educational outcomes in Benin City. The study recommends specific strategies to address these challenges and calls for a continuous monitoring and evaluation system to ensure lasting improvements in computer education.
