dc.description.abstractUsing a questionnaire titled “Factors Affecting the Use and Adoption of Open-Source Software Development Process Among Nigerian Undergraduates” to solicit responses in selected Institutions of Higher learning in Nigeria, we investigated the factors that motivate or prevent students from adopting and using the open-source paradigm for software development. Findings from the analysis of data obtained from the research showed that students are keen about using the open source software platforms as a means of developing software system. However, there are concerns among students of the implication of collaborative efforts on open source platforms on project completion time, equitable access to internet facilities and metrics for assessing individual contributions to the success of the final product from such development process. We conclude by making recommendations on how open-source platforms can be used among studentsen_US
