Abstract
This study examined the availability and utilization of e-learning resources in the teaching of English language among secondary school students in Egor Local Government Area of Edo State. The study was prompted by the increasing importance of digital technologies in education and the need to understand their role in improving English language teaching and learning in a developing context. A descriptive survey research design was adopted, and data were collected through structured questionnaires administered to selected students and teachers in Egor Secondary School. Findings revealed that e-learning resources such as computers, digital materials, multimedia tools, and internet facilities enhance students’ proficiency in reading, writing, listening, and speaking when effectively utilized. However, challenges such as inadequate availability of resources, poor infrastructure, irregular power supply, insufficient teacher training, and limited technical support hinder effective utilization. The study concludes that e-learning resources play a significant role in improving English language learning, but their impact is constrained by several institutional and infrastructural challenges. It therefore recommends that government and school authorities provide adequate ICT facilities, improve infrastructure, and organize continuous training for teachers to enhance the effective integration of e-learning resources in secondary schools.
