The use of hypermedia as an instructional resource has led to new and exciting opportunities for instructional delivery in institutions of learning. Yet, traditional teaching methods dominated the established academic institutions in Nigeria. This study explores the determinants that will predict the actual use of hypermedia instructional resources for teaching Digital electronics courses in Nigerian universities, an explanatory sequential mixed method was adopted as the research design for the study while Survey research was conducted on 120 electrical and electronics technology education undergraduates’ students and lecturers. Structural equation modeling using Smart Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling software was performed to evaluate the proposed hypotheses, and a semi-structured interview was conducted and analyzed through the inherent future of Nvivo11 to support the quantitative data. The results revealed that Perceived Usefulness and Accessibility were significant predictors of using hypermedia instructional resources for teaching digital electronic courses. The paper recommended that the University management, policymakers, and educational technology practitioners consider Perceived Usefulness and Accessibility as factors that predict the actual use of Hypermedia Instructional Resources in teaching digital electronics in Nigerian universities before investing huge amounts of funds in the development of Hypermedia Instructional Resources for teaching and learning.
