STUDENTS’ VARIABLES AND THEIR PERCEIVED DIFFICULTIES IN LEARNING MECHANICAL TECHNOLOGY

ABSTRACT

          This study was carried out in order to determine students’ variables and their perceived difficulties in learning mechanical technology.

          It was born out of the fact that mechanical technology. The investigation so far carried out covers four secondary schools in the locality.

          The findings were based on four basic research questions.

  • Lack of laboratories and lack of instructional materials
  • Students attitude towards the subject (mechanical technology) affects their performance
  • Teachers teaching methods in mechanical technology affect students performance
  • Teachers qualification also affect the students’ performance in mechanical technology,

From the research question it was discovered that the following factors-absence of laboratories and lack of instructional materials limited and incompetent teachers of the subject were found to be responsible for the inefficient teaching of mechanical technology in schools.

INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

     When we look around we cannot but admire the work of science and technology as the clothes we put on, the house we lives in, the pen use in writhing, the cooker we watch, the steer we play, the pipe borne water, the motor car we drive, the medicine we drink, the are propane that flies, the book we read, the chalk we write with, the industries we work in, the electricity we use e.t.c

      According to Joseph (1966) science and technology is a perception of the mind where by an infinitive idea develops into a form that eventually beats man’s imagination and ingenuity

   Nigeria as a developing nation is not exempted from the for industrialization despite the country’s buoyancy in mineral resources, she is still learning from countries like united kingdom and united state of America the society is productively hand capped by low level of technology, yet Nigeria has a high taste for luxuries, hence cannot but learn from developed countries for commodes this so because she lack scientific inventions this has gone a long way to hamper the countries economic growth over the years in search of economical and technological satisfaction, Nigeria now encourages the study of mechanical technology anf technology in schools

    The national policy on education is now geared towards reflecting the nation need science and technology is important in our modern industries, it is fundamental to boldly and mental health it has revolutionaries  our look on the universe, it has freed us from haunting fears and has influence our fundamental philosophies according to Abubakar (1972) “the pursuit of science and technology is imperative for any nation that want to maintain its independence and sovereignty, ensure growing prosperity and hold up its ahead among civilized nations” science and technology has come to stay in this country but the way and manner it is taught has a lot to do in teaching any particular subjects a number of strategies or methodology are often employed according to Thompson (1962) “teaching are those techniques used by the teacher as the most efficient means of achieving the teaching goals”

    In the Nigeria national policy on education (1981) it stated that school education should “equip students to live attentively in our modern age of mechanical technology and technology” in accordance with this aim of education, Boge (1979) has his to say, “in an era that is most accurately described by its scientific and technological process, one major educational problem is preparing the young people to cope with the intellectual and cultural environment characterized by rapid changes” in order for students to understand this rapidly, scientific and technological society, it is assumed that these young people should have some basic understanding for the mechanical technology

     Experimental mechanical technology is one of the most recently included subject content of the curriculum mechanical technology it inclusion, mechanical technology has continued to occupy its separate place and some time, it is often neglected in some schools even where the various branches of mechanical technology are taught they are done without regard for the basic requirement needed in spite of the effort made during the present decade by the federal and state government of Nigeria to give mechanical technology subject their role in education note much has been achieved in some selected schools in Lagos east senatorial district of Lagos state the effect of the deficiency in teaching mechanical technology in schools are particularly evident in developing countries such as Nigeria

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM

  • To which extent has the number of students per class in Nigeria which is too unwieldy affect the effective teaching of mechanical technology
  • In what way does in adequate use of specimens material and diagrams makes ineffective the teaching of mechanical technology
  • Could lack of improvised teaching and by teacher cause ineffective teaching which lead to the students poor performance in mechanical technology
  • Can bad attitude of teachers towards work affect the effective teaching of mechanical technology
  • Could lack of practical work causes ineffective teaching of mechanical technology

RESEARCH QUESTION

  • How does lack of laboratories and lack of instructional material affect the effective teaching of mechanical technology?
  • How does pupil’s attitude towards the subject (mechanical technology) affect their performance in the teaching of mechanical technology?
  • Does teacher’s qualification also affect students performance in effective teaching of mechanical technology/
  • How teacher dose’s teaching methods in mechanical technology affects pupil’s performance ineffective teaching of mechanical technology?

 HYPOTHESIS

The ineffective teaching of mechanical technology schools is brought by several factors the researcher has it in mind that the factors listed below could be responsible for it

  • Lack of laborites and lack of instructional materials
  • Students attitude towards the subject (mechanical technology) affects their performance
  • Teacher’s qualification also affect the students performance in mechanical technology
  • Teacher’s teaching method in mechanical technology affect students performance
  • With answers to the above, the researcher has it in mind that there is going to be a total change in the teaching of mechanical technology

PURPOSE OF STUDY

The purpose of this study is to find out the problem militating against the teaching of mechanical technology the schools

SIGNIFICANCE OF STUDY

The teaching of mechanical technology has not been as effective as it output to be is easily of students in schools it is therefore necessary to diagnose the various factors responsible for this unheeding state of affairs and proper means by which the anomalies could be arrested

   The importance of mechanical technology in the life of man need to be over emphasized therefore if the subject is note effectively taught, the rudiment that are necessary for development of the basic concept of mechanical technology would be lacking at the secondary schools level and this could permeate the other state of the nation’s educational level it is believed that the importance of mechanical technology is well under stood and all the factors responsible for it’s unhealthy development are quickly nipped on the bud it would be possible to build a mechanical technology culture oriented society which will augur well for the healthy development of the nation

SCOPE AND DELIMITION OF STUDY

 The study will be restricted to Lagos east senatorial district in Lagos state a large number of secondary school is located there hence Lagos east senatorial district will serve as the centre of the study this will enable one to know the factor militating against effective teaching of mechanical technology

   Selected secondary schools in Lagos east senatorial districtare to be used for the study

LIMITATION OF STUDY

To carry out a project such as this there are bound to be procedural and methodological flew inherent in the item developed human biases are likely to aggravate the internal weakness that are likely to exist however, conscious effort will be made to evolve method that will control for such extraneous influences in order to ensure the validity and reliability of the study

   It is also expected that distance, times, finance and lack of human co-operation can pose serious threats to the successful execution of this project to this end it is hoped that every effort will be made to minimize, if not totally eliminating such threats and steps taken be highlighted to serve as a guide to those who may wish to replicate the project

DEFINITION OF TERMS

In the course of study, it is important to know what the following terms stand for technology may be defined as the use of organized knowledge to solve practical problems

   Mechanical technology laboratory is a place equipped for experimental studies in mechanical technology
