There were two instruments for the study.

There were four research questions and two hypotheses in the study. The overall average awareness of the lecturers stands at 73%, while their overall mean of media use stands at 1.4 out of 4.0 points. A t‐teststatistical tool was used to analyze the data on the hypothesesforthe study. Resultsindicated that: (i) there were adequate instructional media in colleges of education; (ii) the lecturers had moderate awareness of IM; (iii) they used media less frequently; and (iv) their awareness and use of IM were not influenced by gender. Based on the results, it is recommended that the school authorities should constantly organize workshops, seminars and motivate lecturers to attend in order to improve their instructional activities.
