CHAPTER ONE
1.0
Introduction
This
chapter contains the historical back ground of the problem, statement of the
problem, research objectives, research question, significant of the study,
definition of key terms and the scope of the study
Education
is very important within the society it is the basis for the prolongation of
culture for instruction of individual, for the evolution of the society and for
other purposes education is divided into levels which are preprimary, primary
schools, secondary schools, and tertiary level.
Education
is teaching and learning system aiming to socialize individuals and maximizing
development.
Educations
a lifelong process of human intellectual growth hand the bedrock of any
nation's development. Education consists of two components, inputs and outputs.
Input consist human and material resources and output are the goals and
outcomes of the educational process .Availability of Teaching And Learning
Resources (TLR) enhance the effectiveness of school and these are basic things
that can bring about good academic performance to the students, Sifuna, (2014).
Instructional
materials as education resources used to improve students’ knowledge, abilities and skills to monitor
their assimilation of information and to contribute to their overall
development and upbringing ,also are any collections of materials including
animate and inanimate objects and human and non-human resources that a teacher
may use in teaching and learning situation and to help achieve desired learning
objective.
According
to Esu (2004) Instructional materials refers to all the resources within their
teacher and the learners which are employed to facilitate teaching and
learning. Instructional materials include books, audio-visual, software and
hardware of educational technology. the availability, adequacy and relevance of
instructional materials in classrooms can influence quality teaching, which can
have positive effect on students’ learning and academic performance. The instructional resources to students’ academic
performance serve critical in the provision of quality education. The title of
this thesis, role of instructional materials in academic performance in Mtwara
mikindani municipality originates from such ideas. Efficiency and high
productivity in teaching and learning transaction. In my views, start from the
access to quality and adequate instructional materials, and these should be
prepared well before the class interaction.
Instructional
materials have been observed as powerful strategies to bring about effective
teaching and learning. The importance of quality and adequate instructional in
teaching and learning can occur through effective utilization during classroom teaching,
it include all the tools that a teacher can use to make the learning more
interesting and memorable.
Olumorin,
Yusuf, Ajidagba and Jekayinfa (2010) observed that instructional materials help
teachers to teach conveniently and the learners to learn easily without any
problem. They asserted that instructional materials have direct contact with
all sense organs. Kochhar (2012) supported that instructional materials are
very significant learning and teaching tools. He suggested the needs for
teachers to find necessary materials for instruction to supplement what
textbooks provide in order to broaden concepts and arouse students ‘interests
in the subject. According to Abolade (2009), the advantages of instructional
materials are that they are cheaper to produce, useful in teaching large number
of students at a time, encourage learners to pay proper attention and enhance
their interest. According to Boron and
kalsher (2005:128) psychologist define learning as any relative permanent
change in behavior, or behavior potential, proceeded by experience. There are
three basic types of learning which are
classical conditioning, operant conditioning and observation learning. Therefore
learning refers to changing behavior though conditions used to guide behavior
of an individual.
Learning
is a process or experience of learning knowledge and skills, attitude,
behaviors and values for example a student understanding and
remembering what they have studied.
Learning. Human learning starts at birth and continuous until death as
consequence of ongoing interactions between people and their
environment it may occur consciously or unconscious awareness. According
to Lyons (2012) learning is a complex activity that involves interplay of students’
motivation, physical facilities, teaching resources, and skills of teaching and
curriculum demands. Availability of teaching and learning resources therefore
enhances the effectiveness of schools as
they are the basic resources that bring about good academic performance in the students. The necessary
resources that should be available for teaching and learning include material
resources, human resource such as teachers and support staff and, physical facilities
such as laboratories and libraries.
According
to Department for International Development (DFID) in guidance note ,a practice
paper(2007) research confirms the most consistence characteristics in
improving students’ performance are
availability of textbooks, and supplementary teaching and learning materials(
TLM) ,well trained prepared supervised and motivated teachers human resources
and adequate physical facilities Instructional materials such as the size of
classroom, sitting position and arrangement, availability of tables, chairs,
chalkboards, shelves on which instruments for practical’s, are important in the
teaching transaction . Availability of
instructional materials can work best if other conditions are met such as the
quality of classroom. I would add the quality of teachers to use these
resources. While acknowledging the importance of instructional materials, there
is little agreement on their roles on academic performance and this difference
in understanding, is the focus of this study. Studies have been conducted
mainly focusing on pedagogical and curriculum trends. However, studies on the
role of instructional materials in academic performance for a country like
Tanzania are highly needed due to the importance discussed above and the
challenges facing the education system.
Academic
performance according to the Cambridge University Reporter (2003) is frequently
defined in terms of examination performance. Academic performance is normally
measured by the examination results because this is one of the major goals of a
school are built in order to provide knowledge and skills to those who go
through them and behind all this is the idea of enhancing good academic
performance. In this study, academic performance was characterized by performance
in classroom tests, in course work and performance in the final examinations.
1.2
Statement of the Problem
Teaching
and learning materials are most important components of the government
educational and their absence is often noted by stakeholders. The Tanzania
government takes a number of measures to improve and promote secondary
education, this is evident in increases expenditure channel to the program. National
policy of Education (NPE) if this policy should be, there must be enough
teaching and learning materials in most secondary schools.
Most
studies that look into the state of instructional resources in schools, rarely
do scholars attach poor performance with lack of, or inadequacy of these
materials. As the studies above indicate instructional materials are important
in teaching and learning and are inadequate in many schools (Kerr, 2003).
Makombe
et al, 2010) have lamented on poor performance, they did not link this
situation with inadequate quality instructional resources. These studies are
clear state that there is a strong link
between adequate and quality instructional materials and quality teaching and
learning process have shown that learners who are provided with safe, modern
and environmentally controlled situation learn much better and their academic
performance are high. School finance trends in Tanzania have shown a notable
decrease in funding for educational facilities (MoEVT, 2014). However, studies
are needs to draw a clear comparison between the quality of instructional
materials in Mtwara municipal secondary schools and academic outcomes. In order
for the government to support educational reform that will boost student performance
Therefore,
this study is to examine on how the
teaching and learning materials(Instructional materials) influence academic performance
for secondary Schools in Mtwara municipal although teaching and learning materials
has been there
1.3 Objectives
1.3.1 General Objective
The
general objective of this study is to examine the assessment on how teaching
and learning materials are influencing academic performance of secondary
students in Mtwara Mikindani municipality
1.3.2 Specific Objectives
The
study will guide the following research objectives.
a) To
explore the views of teachers and students on the extent to which instructional
materials affect student performance.
b) To
examine the challenges that teachers and students in Mtwara mikindani municipal
secondary schools face in accessing instructional materials.
c) To
explain the measures and solutions to be used to minimize the challenges of
attaining and using quality instructional materials.
1.4 Research questions
The
research questions of this study as follows;
(a)What
are the views of teachers and students on the extent to which instructional
materials affect students’ performance?
(b)What
are the challenges that teachers face in accessing instructional materials?
(c) What is the solution to minimize the
challenges of attaining and using quality instructional materials?
1.5 Significance of the Study
This
study is significant to teacher, students and education manager and planners. It
intends to find the impact of inadequate instructional materials in. The
knowledge would help the government most especially local government and
educators to reflect and make evaluation on the requirements of other
instructional materials apart from class-rooms alone. Since the government and
local communities have been putting more emphasis on the construction of new
class-rooms, and recently, construction of laboratories. However, provision of quality secondary
school education requires more than just class-rooms and laboratory buildings.
Also the knowledge acquired from this study would be very important to other
researchers who have interest in demographic dynamics of school age going
children in relation to planning of school facilities.
1.6 Scope of the study
The
study will be conducted under the case study of Mtwara municipal which found in
southern part of Tanzania under Mtwara. Among of those schools are Shangani, Rahaleo
and Bandari secondary school in Mtwara municipal.
1.7 Definition of Key Terms
The
following are terminology used which are as follows education, teaching and
learning, performance, and instructions materials.
Instruction materials
are facilities given to students, so that they can use every opportunity to
develop full potential. Instructional materials include fixtures, equipment,
and buildings necessary for the effective and efficient operation of the
program of public education (uslegal.com, 2015).Such a materials also may be both
human and manmade which facilitate the acquisition and evaluation of knowledge,
skills, attitude moral and values.
Kind
of instructional materials are visual materials such as three dimensions,
printed materials, and chalkboard, still pictures, non-projected, graphic like charts,
graphs, maps and globes.
Audio
materials are materials used in teaching and learning through hearing of sounds
such as radio, record player, tape recorder,
Audio
visual materials these are electronic materials such as computers, video,
television.
The
instructions materials are important to students because they encourage active participation,
it create effective communication to teacher and provide meaning and usefull sources
of uptodate information to teacher and learner.
Education is
a lifelong process of human intellectual growth and the bedrock of any nation development,
Nnadi & Ugochukwu (2016). Education can be transferred from one generation to
another generation
CHAPTER TWO
LITERATURE REVIEW
2.0General Introduction
This
chapter presents the relevant literature for this study. The first part
presents theoretical literature. This is focused on two theories: Instructional
material theories and Socio-cultural theory of teaching, learning, and
development. The second part presents empirical literature that revolves around
the objectives developed in chapter 1 and the last is research gap .
2.1 Theoretical Review
2.1.1Sociocultural theory of teaching,
learning and development
Learning
is relative permanent products of experiences that come out as a result of the
interaction between individual and environment. A part of a person’s all learning’s
occur incidentally while an important part of it occurs in a specially
structured learning environment in a planned and programmed manner. The concept
of learning which is of vital importance in terms of explaining human behaviors’
is one of the important subject areas whose questions are tries to be answered
in the body of literature such as how and through which processes learning
occurs. In the historical process, there have arisen many theories that are
still acceptable despite of some criticism. Learning theories that are
interested in learning and ways of learning in order to understand and explain
learning process explain learning as a process in which behavior changes, is
shaped or controlled. These theories may be classified under different headings
according to some criteria. On the other hand, although these theories have
some common views, they also have different points of view, which have been
developed considering biological, psychological, physiological, neurological
structure of human. Some of these theories are stated below. Behaviorist
learning approach, measurability and observability of human behaviors’ are
considered important while unobservable and immeasurable human behaviors’ are
ignored to the extent that they are disregarded completely. In behaviorist
approach, learning is explained as a process in which a stimulus and a response
are matched, and a response given to a stimulus is reinforced. Behaviorist
theory results from the idea that learning occurs mostly through repetition,
motivation and reinforcement. According to this approach, there are basically
two types of learning. In classical conditioning, which is the first of them, a
neutral stimulus is matched with an unconditioned stimulus. On the other hand,
operant conditioning is behavior is reinforced and so is more likely to repeat.
As some situations about learning could not be explained with the principles of
behaviorist theory, researchers headed towards re-defining human learning and
as a result of this situation, cognitive learning theories started to gain
importance.
Cognitive
approach, which claims that learning cannot be explained through the connection
of stimulus-response, claims that learning is determined by the mental
processes of learner, and states that student is not a passive receiver of
external stimuli, but is an individual who internalizes them and thus actively
shape behavior. Cognitive learning theories examine mental processes of human
while making sense of the world. According to this theory, learning is the
change of mental structure of an individual, and it is emphasized that with
this change, behaviors’ of a person are also changed or a person acquires new behaviors’.
Cognitive theorists are also interested in internal structures of individual as
well as observable behaviors’ while explaining learning. Another approach,
which researches learning, is constructivism. This theory claims that knowledge
is produced by learner’s value judgments and experiences. Those who defend
constructivism explain learning as finding and structuring knowledge by means
of associating them with previous experiences and knowledge. . According to
constructivism, learning is an internal process that takes place in a person’s
mind. A person is not passive, receiver of external stimuli, but is an
individual who internalizes them and thus actively shape behavior.
Constructivism is a learning approach that states "that learners learn
something by means of using and structuring their own experiences instead of
receiving knowledge in an organized form as given to them”. Learning is a
process in which students construct their own knowledge in their mind related
to a certain object, event, phenomenon or concept or at least, in which
students interpret the truth grounding on their previous can say that views of
constructivist theory and cognitive theory are similar to each other to a great
extent. Brain-based learning theory which deals with the concept of learning in
a neuro-physiological context accepts and explains the process of learning as a
bio-chemical or electro-chemical change. According to this approach, the
process, which is called, learning, is a process of establishing a connection
between brain cells and an intercellular connection, and a new connection is
established between brain cells with each new learning (Jensen, 2000).
According
to Hebb (1980) who is famous for his studies on brain, if learning occurs in
brain and if brain is a live structure, the related part of brain must
experience a change through learning when compared to the state previous to
learning. Mention two concepts about these changes, which are cell assembly and
phase sequences. Cell Assembly: Each event or object faced by the individual
activates a group of cells that are related to each other. The number and size
of cell assembly change according to object or event. For example; the number
of cells activated in relation to pen is less than the number of cells
activated in relation to car, because a car has more details than a pen and
each detail requires more connections to be established between cells. Phase
Sequences: It is explained as the series of cell assemblies that are related to
each other. In these cell assemblies, one can be trigger or cause of other. According
to brain-based learning approach, the focus point of learning is brain. In this
context, it is useful to explain some concepts such as awareness, conscious,
automatization (unconscious behavior), feeling, sense and attention which are
all known to originate from brain and which can be called the factors of learning.
2.1.2Instructional Material Theories
Instructional
material theories assume that there is a direct link between the materials that
the teachers use, and the students’ learning outcomes. These outcomes include
higher abilities to learn, quality strategies to learn and perform classroom activities
and positive attitude towards learning. Further, these theories assume that
instructional materials have the capacity to develop into students the highest
order of intellectual skills as they illustrate clearly, step by step how to
follow the rules/principles and elaborate on the concepts, all of which have
positive impact on solving new problems by analyzing the situation and
formulating a plan (Gagné et al. 2005).
Instructional
material can be used to develop higher learning abilities to the learners
through self-teaching or guided learning. This implies that the instructional
materials mainly comprise “eliciting performance” and “providing feedback on
performance correctness,” in addition to “providing learning guidance” for
guided discovery learning. Many of Gagné’s 9 ideas have broad implications for
secondary teachers in Mtwara mikindani
secondary schools . Many of these ideas have capacity building
undertones with themes of students’ acquisition of critical thinking and
problem-solving skills. However, the theory does not relate to whether or not
students can think critically in what aspects or how they can solve a
particular problem by themselves. However, I have the opinion that the purpose
of instructional materials or technology in education is to stretch students’
imagination and to encourage them to solve problems in their lives. Similar
ideas are held by Lev Vygotsky, a Russian psychologist who held a view that
tools and signs, which are in a form of instructional materials, have the capacity
to develop in higher level of thinking, which is important in problem-solving
activities. However, since they are considered to be domain-specific, the ways
instructional materials can start cognitive development is yet to be studied
with respect to classroom. (Gagne et al 2005).
How
to apply learning theories in teaching
Teacher
can create specific strategies and techniques to apply these learning theories
in their classroom. Teachers need to first focus on getting a well-rounded
education to learn about all kinds of techniques for teaching and classroom
management. Teachers need to understand learning theories to be prepared to
utilize them in their classroom. An understanding of learning theories helps
teachers connect to all different kinds of students. Teachers can focus on
different learning styles to reach different students, creating teaching that
focuses directly on student needs and aptitudes.
2.3Empirical Literature
2.3.1 The Extent to which
Instructional Materials Affect Student Performance
Adeogun,
(2001) revealed a strong positive link between instructional resources and
academic performance schools that possess more instructional resources performs
better than schools that have less instructional resources. This finding
supports that private schools performs better than public schools because of
the availability and adequacy of teaching and learning resources. There was a
low level of instructional resources available in public schools and hence
commented that public schools had adequate shortages of both teaching and
learning resources. He further comments that effective teaching and learning
cannot occur in the classroom environment if essential instructional resources
are not available.
The
quality of instructional processes experienced by a learner determines quality
of education. In their view they suggest that quality instructional materials
create into the learner’s quality learning experience. Also students’
performance is affected by the quality and quantity of teaching and learning
resources. This implies that the schools that possess adequate teaching and
learning materials such as textbooks, charts, pictures, real objects for
students to see, hear and experiment with, stand a better chance of performing
well in examination than poorly equipped ones, John, (2010).
2.3.2 Challenges that Teachers Face
in Accessing Instructional Materials
Another
challenge that teachers face in accessing instructional materials is lack of
clear policy and monitoring mechanisms to ensure that enough funds are provided
to secondary schools for purchasing instructional materials and also
these
funds are used for the intended purpose. As Onche (2014) comments, government’s
Policy towards efficient provision of these aspects of educational resources
has not been encouraging and has always not been well planned, monitored,
supervisor and evaluation.
2.3.3 Solution to solve the problem
of attaining and using quality instructional material
There
are a number of strategies, which can be used in order to minimize the
challenges of attaining and using quality instructional materials. According to
studies done in different parts of the world including Africa, one of the
strategies is improvisation of instructional materials. Improvisation involves
sourcing, selection and deployment of relevant instructional materials into the
teaching-learning focus in the absence or shortage of standard materials for
learning and teaching.
2.3 Research gap
From
various literature reviewed by a researcher, it is clear that many studies have
been conducted on causes of poor academic performance, factors influencing
academic performance but those
researcher have been reported that inadequate of teaching and learning
materials influence poor academic performance to secondary School. There fore
there was a need to conduct research on how teaching and learning materials
influence academic performance on secondary students in Mtwara municipal.
CHAPTER THREE
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
3.0 Introduction
This
chapter provides a description of the methodology, which will be used in this
study. It includes description of the research design, sampling procedures,
description of the study location, data collection procedures and targeted
population.
3.1 Research Design
Aaker
et al (2002) defines a research design as the detailed blue print used to guide
a research study towards its objectives. Method design, sample design and
analysis design were used. Cross section studies were used during data
collection. According to Saunders et al (2004) a cross sectional design allows
data to be collected at a single point in time without repetitions from a
sample selected to represent some large population and therefore using minimum
time and resources. In this study, the design was favorable because of limited
resources like time, labor (personnel) and transport.
A
research design is the ‘procedures for collecting, analyzing, interpreting and
reporting data in research studies’ Creswell & Plano Clark (2007, p.58). It
is the overall plan for connecting the conceptual research problems with the
pertinent (and achievable) empirical research. In other words, the research
design sets the procedure on the required data, the methods to be applied to
collect and analyze this data, and how all of this is going to answer the
research question Grey, 2014).
According to Kothari (2011) descriptive survey
research design studies were designed to obtain pertinent and precise
information concerning the current status, phenomenon and where possible to
draw conclusions from the field facts obtained facts obtained. This study
design therefore enables the researcher to collect data more appropriately.
This is the influence of selected factors that affects student’s academy
performance. Similarly,
According
to Kothari, (2011) survey as a descriptive design is referred because: i) It enables the researcher to examine
various data and the relationship between various other unknown situations in
the circumstances. ii) It enabled the
researcher to collect data from a wide area in a short time.
3.2 Area of the study
The
study will in the case study of Mtwara municipal which found in southern part
of Tanzania under Mtwara the study will be conducts in Rahaleo, shangani and
Bandari secondary school in Mtwara municipal.
3.3 Targeted population
Targeted
populations of the study are students, teacher, parents and educational Manager
in Mtwara municipal.
3.4 Sample size
A
sample size is a count of the Individual samples or observation in any
statistical setting such as a scientific experiment. In selecting sample size, should
be obtained from total targeted population. Therefore, the population in this
research including educational managers, teachers, parents and students.
3.5Sampling
Refers
to the process of selecting a number of individual or object from the
population such that the selected group contains elements representative of
characteristics found on the entire group Orodho and Combo, (2002).In this
study the researcher use the following sampling technique simple random sampling for students and
convenience for parents, teachers and education manager and purposeful sampling.
The
purpose of sampling is to draw conclusion about population from sample by using
inferential statistic, to enables as to determine population characteristics by
directly observing only a portion (sample of a population).
3.5.1 Simple random sampling
Is
a sub set of individual (sample) chooses from a large set (a population) Combo
(2002). In these techniques each and every member of the population has an
equal chance of being selected do as to avoid biasness, and also to get the
data.
3.5.2 Convenience sampling
This
is the type of non-probability sampling method that relies on data collection
from population members who are conveniently available to participate in the study.
This sampling will be useful for teachers, parents and educational manager.
3.5.3. Purposeful sampling
Is
a sampling taking where by a sample are chosen on the basis of their purpose or
judgment of their typical. Is the non-probability sample based on
characteristics of a population and the objective of the study.
3.6 Data collection techniques
Data
collection refers to the gathering information to serve or promote some
factors kombo and Tromp (2010:99) source
of data are primary and secondary data .The study work in this section a
researcher use four types of data
collection techniques which are interview, questionnaire, observation and
documentary analysis.
3.61 Interview
Interview
is a form of data collection in which questions are asked orally and subjects
responses are the recorded Kombo (2010).
Interview
is a conversation between two people (the interviewer and the Interviewee)
where questions are posed by an interviewer to obtain information from the
interviewee to get more information concerning the particular study Rampur, (2010).
In
this study the interview guide will construct questions to capture supplementary
information and for triangulating information that will be obtain from
respondent. The researcher use unstructured interview to parents and
educational manager
3.6.2 Questionnaire
Are
written documents containing statement or questions that are used to obtain
subjects, values and attitude, believe and other traits Jack and Noran, (2002).
Therefore, there searcher will use two types of questionnaire the closed form
and open ended questionnaire so as to get information of the research problem.
3.6.3 Observation
This
refers to the method of collecting data in the field were by a researcher write
on what she or he observe. It may be participatory or non-participatory
observation
3.6.4 Documentary research
Is
the systematic procedure for reviewing documents related to the issue under
investigation of the topic. This is the secondary source of data
collection in research , this method
employs to the teachers, head of school and educational manager based on
examination done and other data concerning performance in certain school.
