Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are a powerful tool for training and developing new abilities and a suitable mechanism to create educational stimulation. This study aims to evaluate the access and use of ICTs by Albanian natural science undergraduate students. Four hundred ninety-one students studying at the Faculty of Natural Sciences, University of Tirana, participated in an e-questionnaire based-study. The findings show that about 83 per cent of students use the smartphone for their studies, and only half of them own and use a laptop. The software skill level was related to the academic performance and the program of study (p=0.001). Students find the course managing platforms and the recorded video lectures very helpful. Less than 10 per cent of students’ state to have attended a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC), and students with a lower English level were less likely to have attended an online course (p<0.0001). In light of this findings, it is important to create and follow through with a plan to tackle students' main issues with technology access and use.
