PERCEPTION OF TEACHERS TOWARDS THE TEACHING AND LEARNING OF PUPILS WITH LOW VISION IN NKWANTA SOUTH DISTRICT, VOLTA REGION

ABSTRACT 

The study sought to find out the perception of teachers towards the teaching and learning of pupils with low vision in Nkwanta South District, Volta Region. The cross sectional survey design was used to guide the study. The sample size for this study was 150 teachers. The method for the collection of data was questionnaire. The probability sampling technique involving simple random sampling techniques was used to select the sample size. Data was analyzed using frequencies and percentages. The results from the study showed that teachers did not have adequate resources for teaching pupils with low vision. Moreover, teachers did not have writing materials such as magnifying lenses and telescopes. Teachers faced challenges in teaching pupils with low vision such as adapting the curriculum to suit the needs of pupils with low vision, could not assist pupils with low vision to read and write in braille and did not have requisite skills in teaching pupils with low vision. However, teachers verbalize everything they wrote on the chalkboard for pupils and wrote boldly on the chalkboard. The researcher recommended that teachers teaching pupils with low vision should be taught the most appropriate methods of teaching pupils with low vision. Frequent in-service training should be organized for teachers teaching pupils low vision.
