FACTORS
MILITATING AGAINST THE EFFECTIVE TEACHING - LEARNING OF COMPUTER SCIENCE IN
JUNIOR SECONDARY SCHOOLS
Abstract
This project work is designed to
investigate the FactorsMilitating against Teaching - Learning of Computer
Science in Junior Secondary School in Enugu North Local Government. This work
aims at finding the problems facing the teaching-learning of computer science
in junior secondary schools in Enugu North L.G.A, to identify the teaching
method used by teachers in teaching-learning of computer in junior classes in
Enugu North L.G.A, to identify the problems facing teachers and students in
teaching- learning of computer science in Enugu North L.G.A. etc.In the
collection of data, the researcher used the following methods; the sample size
is 20, sample techniques were randomly selected while the data obtained were
analyzed using frequency tables and percentage.
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
The factors
militating against the effective teaching-learning of computer science in
junior secondary schools in Enugu North L.G.A. Enugu are those factors that
make the subject not to be properly understood by the students.
They are those limitations that create
ineffective understanding of computer to students in junior secondary school in
Enugu North L.G.A. Enugu State.
The research highlighted some factors
that contributes to it. They include:
i. Instructional materials used
ii. The categories of teachers
iii. Teaching methods used
iv. Problems facing teachers and students
v. Physical environmental factors
1.1
Background of the Study
The worlds
are advancing at a rapid rate. Events have moved to the electronic stage with
computer at the center. This development has brought a lot of innovations and
revolution into teaching and learning. The 3R’s which forms the nucleus of the
old system of education has witnessed series of literacy reforms. The world is
now in the age of hence there is need to keep abreast with time.
One of the
ways of achieving this is through the introduction of computer into our
institutions of learnings
John Ugoji
(2006) explains computer as an electronic machine that performs tasks. Such as
calculation or electronic communication under the control of a set of
instruction called programmes. The programmes usually resides within the
computer and are retrieved as processed by the computer’s election.
He want
further into defining computer as an electronic machines that has the ability
to accept data, process data and retrieve data i.e. gives out the result as
information.
Okolo
Lawrence (2007) describes the term “computer” as an electronic machine or
gadget that accepts data as input and process them electronically to produce
the desired output or information with the aid of a set instructions.
Computer can
be generally defined as an electronic device that accepts data, process the
data and brings out the result of the data as an information. Involving
computer science into teaching-learning as a case in Enugu North Junior
Secondary Schools simply means that teaching should carry a definition of
computer during learning for easy understanding.
In this
case, teaching according to Nicholas .O. Anyanwu (2006) means a systematic,
rational and organized process of transmitting knowledge, attitude and skills
in accordance with professional principles. He also said that teaching has come
to be a complex task and should involve only professional teachers into the
system in order to transmit the knowledge of the computer to the learners
properly.
The learners
that are mentioned here are the students of junior secondary schools in Enugu
North L.G.A. of Enugu State that studies computer science. Wikipedia (2010) describes
learning as a change in behaviour based on previous experience. This learning
therefore involves processing of various types of information.
1.2
Statement of Problem
The world as
it is today has become computerized. That is to say that everything and almost
all the activities of today is are computerized. Going by this, it therefore
becomes very important that every body should have the knowledge of computer,
starting from the junior secondary or even primary school. This is very
important for young children in order to be able to cope with any computer
challenges that may arise.
Computer
science is a technical subject which demands a skillful teacher to handle it,
if the students should be expected to perform well in it. Following this
assertion, we know that the junior secondary schools in Enugu North L.G.A. are
faced with problems that hinder the effective teaching-learning of all the
subjects especially-computer science.
1.3 The purpose of
the Study
The overall
purpose of this study is to identify factors militating against the effective
teaching – learning of computer science in some junior secondary schools in
Enugu North L.G.A. of Enugu State.
Specifically,
the purpose of the study are:
i. To identify the teaching method of used by
the teacher during computer classes.
ii. To identify the types of
instructional materials used in the process of teaching-learning of computer
science.
iii. To identify the categories of teachers
that are teaching computer science.
iv. To identify the problems facing the
teachers and students during teaching learning of computer science
v. To identify the physical
environmental factors in that area
1.4 Significance of
the Study
The findings
of the study will be important to the teachers of computer science and also the
learners while learning the subject. By so doing, it will help them to improve
on their teaching method.
The teacher
will benefit because it will avail them the opportunity of discovering the
teaching method to be used and the materials suitable for teaching-learning of
computer science in junior secondary schools.
It will
enable them to discover the areas that they need to help the computer teachers
improve on. It will equally lead to the discovering of students problems or
weaknesses in the study of computer science. To the students, they study so as
to enable them to identify their own problems in the study of computer science.
1.5
Scope of the Study
This study
is meant to cover the junior secondary schools in Enugu North L.G.A. of Enugu
State. It will equally discuss the method of teaching-learning of computer
science.
The study
will as well study the problems facing the teachers and students in
teaching–learning of computer science and also the physical environment
factors.
1.6
Research Questions
The
following questions were asked to guide the study
i. What are the various methods used
in teaching and learning of computer science in junior secondary schools in
Enugu north. L.G.A.
ii. What are the various types of
instructural materials used in teaching – learning of computer science in
junior secondary schools in Enugu North.
iii. What are the problems facing teachers
and students during teaching – learning of computer science in junior secondary
schools in Enugu North.
iv. What are the physical environmental
factors that exits during the teaching – learning secondary schools in Enugu
North L.G.A.
