Abstract:
The integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into educational administration has become indispensable in enhancing efficiency, transparency, and accessibility of institutional records. This study employed a qualitative research design anchored in a systematic literature review approach to explore the integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in record management within educational institutions in Tanzania. This study critically examines the role of ICT in record management within Tanzanian educational institutions, highlighting both its potential and prevailing challenges. Guided by the Record Life Cycle, Record Continuum, and Convergence Theories of Information and Technology, the study explores the dynamic interplay between human actors and technological systems in record keeping. Evidence from the synthesis of findings indicates that, despite positive attitudes among educational stakeholders, ICT adoption in record management remains limited due to infrastructural and capacity constraints. The study underscores the necessity for comprehensive government interventions to provide modern ICT facilities and training, thereby improving administrative, instructional, and management record practices.
