Abstract: The study investigates the Federal University of Wukari lecturers' performance expectancy and effort expectancy influence in teaching using two constructs of UTAUT. Two research questions were raised and two hypotheses were formulated. A survey method was employed for the study. A mixed methods research approach involving concurrent quantitative and qualitative data collection techniques was utilised. Simple random sampling technique was used to select 233 lecturers. Data were obtained using a structured questionnaire and interview schedules. Instruments were validated by an expert of information science, and reliability was tested using Cronbach Alpha, on 25 lecturers from the Taraba State University, Jalingo with performance expectancy and effort expectancy having 0.861 and 0.864 coefficient respectively. Collected data from the questionnaire were analysed using frequency distribution and Pearson Product Moment correlation, while interview responses were transcribed and analysed thematically. Findings revealed that performance expectancy and effort expectancy positively influence the use of ICT for teaching among the lecturers. Based on the findings, recommendations were proffered.
