Approaches used to collect data in this research were questionnaires and interviews conducted from six selected Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Tanzania. Less than 40.3% respondents reported ICT utilization effectiveness for research activities as average, effective as well as highly effective. Less than 50% stakeholders’ reported average, effective as well as highly effective utilization of ICT for teaching activities. Also there are poor ICT services provisions that lead to stakeholders’ dissatisfaction. In addition, there is lack of sustainable dedicated funding for information technology on HEIs in Tanzania and this contributes to slow implementation of ICT Policy, plans and Strategies.
