Abstract
The impact of information and communication technology (ICT) on the delivery of curricula in Nigerian tertiary institutions is thoroughly examined in this article. Technology’s fast evolution has made it more common for educational settings to use ICT technologies, which presents both many opportunities and difficulties for developing and delivering curricula. This study used a systematic Literature review as part of its research approach, which also included pertinent reports, academic publications, research papers, and a structured questionnaire. According to the findings, ICT has had a substantial impact on how the curriculum is delivered at tertiary institutions in Nigeria, leading to noticeable changes in teaching strategies, student learning environments, and educational outcomes as a whole, but has certain challenges like poor infrastructural development, low level of literacy among others, however, the study recommended that Tertiary institutions in Nigeria should embrace ICT in curriculum delivery, the government should fund ICT education facilities in Nigerian Tertiary institutions.
