Project Abstract
This study investigates the challenges and prospects of teaching home economics in senior secondary schools, focusing on a case study of Oru East L.G.A. Home economics education plays a crucial role in equipping students with essential life skills needed for personal and societal development. However, the effectiveness of teaching home economics in senior secondary schools is hindered by various challenges. The research employed a mixed-methods approach, utilizing surveys, interviews, and observations to gather data from teachers, students, and stakeholders in Oru East L.G.A. The study identified several challenges facing the teaching of home economics in senior secondary schools in Oru East L.G.A. These challenges include a lack of qualified teachers, inadequate teaching materials and resources, limited practical training opportunities, and a crowded curriculum that may not adequately cover all essential topics. Additionally, societal perceptions that devalue home economics education contribute to the challenges faced by teachers in delivering the curriculum effectively. Despite these challenges, the study also revealed promising prospects for teaching home economics in senior secondary schools. Teachers expressed a strong dedication to providing quality education in home economics, and students showed enthusiasm for learning practical life skills. Stakeholders recognized the importance of home economics education and expressed willingness to support initiatives that improve the teaching of the subject in schools. Recommendations from this study include the need for increased investment in teacher training and professional development, provision of adequate teaching materials and resources, collaboration with industry partners to enhance practical training opportunities, and advocacy to change societal perceptions about the value of home economics education. By addressing these challenges and capitalizing on the prospects identified, the teaching of home economics in senior secondary schools in Oru East L.G.A can be significantly improved, leading to better outcomes for students and the community as a whole. In conclusion, this study sheds light on the challenges and prospects of teaching home economics in senior secondary schools, offering valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and stakeholders interested in enhancing the quality of home economics education.
