Over the last few decades, technology has invaded various fields including education. The use of ICT has become a norm in the teaching and learning context; however, in the Moroccan university in general, and in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities in particular, it is not the case. Teaching through ICT has been noticed to be scarce and to move in a slow cadence. This might be due to teachers’ attitudes towards and perceptions of technology or to some constraints related to the institution’s administration and infrastructure. To this end, the present study aims, on the one hand, to explore the factors behind the slow advancement of ICT, and on the other hand, to study the extent to which teachers use it in their classes. Teachers from schools of arts of three cities (Meknes, beni Mellal and Oujda) were concerned by the study. It has been found that teachers have a positive attitude towards ICT integration and that there is no significant effect of gender on the attitude whereas there are differences between teachers from different cities. The use of internet out of class context (70%) and email are the two technological devices that dominate the teachers' pedagogical work.
