ABSTRACT
This study
was carried out to verify the Availability and utilization of instructional
materials in teaching Biology in senior secondary schools in Ekiti-State .The
major objective was to elicit the availability, utilization improvisation of
instructional materials, its effects on students and the problems facing the
teaching of Biology.
One hundred
students and twenty teachers were used. These were selected from five secondary
schools. Data were analyzed. It was discussed with the use of simple percentage
counts.
The
result showed that there are qualified teachers in senior secondary schools but
not enough. Few instructional materials are available in schools, Biology teacher
uses relevant instructional materials but not all Biology teachers use them in
their teaching. It improves student performance and not all teachers improvise
them .
Based
on the findings, it is recommended that,
1.Qualified Biology teacher should be employed and
they should not combine the teaching of the subject with the teaching of
another subject.
2.Government
should supply schools with Biology instructional materials while schools should
also play their own parts.
3.Teacher should be encouraged to make use of the
instructional materials in their teachings and endeavor to improvise for those
that are not available .
