摘要：There are variable levels of ownership and usage of digital technologies among students in KNUST which can affect curricula implementation and integration. This study focussed on ownership and usage of smartphones and tablets. A sample of 183 students was used for the study. Results showed that students owned various types and brands of mobile devices with smartphones recording the highest ownership levels. Android OS was most used on the devices identified. These devices were used mainly for “edutainment”. Irregular internet speed, erratic power supply and high cost of internet data are challenges faced by students in their use of these digital devices .
