  The survey investigated and appraised the use of internet and computer among secondary school teachers and students in Southwest Nigeria. Pre-tested structured questionnaires were administered to four hundred and fifty and three thousands randomly selected respondents, teachers and students respectively. Almost all the survey instruments were appropriately filled and were used for analysis. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The studies revealed that majority of the respondents are female. 41.1% and 55% of the teachers had access to internet and computer respectively, while 51% and 46.9% of the students had access to internet and computer respectively. In addition, majority of teachers used the net via school cybercafé while that of students reached internet via mobile phones. However, 38.7% and 64.5% of the respondents (teachers and students) had access to computer by using their school computer laboratory. Very low indexes were recorded for variables that contributed to teaching and learning processes in the school. The rating results derived from summation of weighted values (SWV) all attested to this claim. The study concluded that using of internet and computer had contributed to personal cognitive interests rather than enhancing the teaching and learning activities in secondary schools in the Southwest of Nigeria.
