Availability Of Teachers And Laboratories For Effective Teaching And Learning Of Integrated Science In Junior Secondary School

This study was carried out to assess the availability of teachers and laboratories for effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school using some selected junior secondary school in Udi Local Government Area in Eungu state. The study was specifically carried out to ascertain whether there is an adequate availability of qualified teachers for the effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school; Ascertain whether there is an adequate availability of well equipped laboratories required for the effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school; Find out whether an adequate availability of qualified teachers and well equipped laboratories enhances students learning experience of integrated science in junior secondary school; and find out whether an adequate availability of qualified teachers and well equipped laboratories enhances students learning outcome in integrated science in junior secondary school. The population size comprise of integrated science teachers of some selected junior secondary school in Udi Local Government Area in Eungu state. In determining the sample size, the researcher conveniently selected 57 respondents and 50 were validated. Self-constructed and validated questionnaire was used for data collection. The collected and validated questionnaires were analyzed using frequency tables, and mean scores. While the hypotheses were tested using Chi-square statistical tool. The result of the findings reveals that there is no adequate availability of qualified teachers and well equipped laboratories required for the effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school. The study also revealed that adequate availability of qualified teachers and well equipped laboratories facilitates the effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school. Therefore, it is recommended that schools should place more emphasis on the development of teachers qualifications and quality through training, seminars and workshops in order to improve students" performance. To mention but a few.

The main objective of this study to examine the availability of teachers and laboratories for effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school. The study will specifically focus on the aims listed below;

1. Ascertain whether there is an adequate availability of qualified teachers for the effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school.
2. Ascertain whether there is an adequate availability of well equipped laboratories required for the effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school.
3. Find out whether an adequate availability of qualified teachers and well equipped laboratories enhances students learning experience of integrated science in junior secondary school.
4. Find out whether an adequate availability of qualified teachers and well equipped laboratories enhances students learning outcome in integrated science in junior secondary school.

Ho: An adequate availability of qualified teachers and well equipped laboratories does not facilitates the effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school.

Ha: An adequate availability of qualified teachers and well equipped laboratories facilitates the effective teaching and learning of integrated science in junior secondary school.
