Abstract

The main purpose of the study was to determine the extent of the availability and accessibility of instructional media for the teaching and learning of Government in senior secondary schools in Enugu Education Zone of Enugu State, Nigeria. The study adopted a quantitative research paradigm, specifically, the descriptive survey design. The sample of the study comprised of 345 senior secondary school II (SS II) students of Government and 15 teachers of Government from 10 public senior secondary schools in the Zone. Two research questions and Two null hypotheses guided the study. Checklist and structured questionnaire captioned “Availability of Instructional Media checklist” (AIMC) and “Accessibility of Instructional Media Questionnaire” (AIMQ) were used to collect data for the study. Arithmetic mean and standard deviation were used to answer the research questions. Independent sample t-test was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05 significance level. The result of the study showed that: Instructional media required for effective teaching and learning of Government in senior secondary schools in Enugu education zone are inadequate. However, the available instructional media were accessible to teachers and students during teaching and learning of Government. The educational implication of the findings is that poor performance of students in Government will continue to be on the increase unless there is adequate instructional media for the implementation of the curriculum. The study therefore recommends among other things that teachers of Government should always improvise if there are no available instructional media for effective teaching and learning process and for enhance students’ performance in the subject.
