The integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in higher education has emerged as a critical factor in enhancing academic performance and student engagement. ICT tools such as e-learning platforms, virtual classrooms, learning management systems, and educational software offer innovative ways to facilitate teaching and learning processes (Almazroi et al., 2020). These technologies enable students to access vast learning resources, collaborate in real-time, and receive timely feedback, which collectively contribute to improved academic outcomes (Nguyen et al., 2015). Moreover, ICT empowers instructors to adopt student-centered pedagogies, streamline administrative tasks, and personalize learning experiences (Bates, 2019). Despite its advantages, challenges such as digital inequality, lack of ICT skills, and inadequate infrastructure persist in some contexts, limiting its full potential (Buabeng-Andoh, 2012). This paper explores the impact of ICT on academic performance in higher education, highlighting both the transformative potential and the barriers to effective implementation. The study recommends institutional investment in ICT infrastructure and capacity-building programs to maximize the benefits of technology-enhanced learning.
