| dc.description.abstract | This study was carried out to examine the capacity building needs of Economics teachers for effective instructional delivery in Ebonyi South Education Zone. The study was guided by two research questions and two hypotheses tested at 0.05 level of significance. The study adopted descriptive survey research design. The population of this study was 137 Economics teachers which comprised 61 male and 76 female Economics teachers. The instrument for data collection was the researcher designed questionnaire titled, “Capacity Building Questionnaire for Economics Teacher Effective Instructional Delivery”. The Cronbach’s alpha reliability of the instrument was 0.77. The research questions were answered using mean and standard deviations while the null hypotheses were tested using the t-test statistics. The results of the data analyses reveal that the various capacity building needs for effective instructional delivery by Economics teachers include the use of tools and application of appropriate teaching strategies for instructional delivery. Also the strategies for providing capacity building needs for Economics teachers for effective instructions include provision of refresher courses and organization of workshops and seminars. Based on these findings, it was recommended that government at all levels should show more interest on the capacity building need of teachers using strategies such as refresher courses, workshops, seminars and conferences in order to fast track effective instructional delivery in secondary schools. | en_US |
