CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background to the Study
In recent years science has become a highly esteemed and important set of subjects in the country, moreso, that newly in the history of human kind has a society been so dependent upon business knowledge as ours. This made business educators to be greatly concerned with students opinion and their attitude to the teaching of business subjects in our schools.
Business education is one of the occupational areas that are richly provided by vocational and technical education in Nigeria. Business education refers to a programme of instruction that offers various skills in accounting, marketing and Office Technology and Management (OTM). Major topics include: office practice, book keeping, business mathematics, business communication, secretarial duties, word processing, advertising (Ajisafe, Bolarinwa & Edeh 2015).
Edokpolor and Egbri (2017) had stipulated that the actual goals of business education shall be to:
- Prepare students for specific career in office occupations;
- Equip students with the requisite skills for job creation and entrepreneurship; and
- Expose students with knowledge about business, including a good blend of computer technology, which incorporates Information and Communication Technology (ICT).
They further explained that the first two goals involve education ‘for’ business, which is aimed at equipping recipients with the requisite attributes (knowledge, skills, competencies, and attitudes) to become gainfully employed in the world of work, whereas the later addresses education ‘about’ business, which is aimed at providing a sound basis for further studies at the graduate and post-graduate levels.
Because of its numerous benefits, business education is a very popular choice among business subject nationwide. Presently business education is offered by Junior Secondary School as one of the compulsory subjects.
Instructional materials are relevant for the teaching of business education and they are very exclusive as it help to facilitate effective understanding of the rudimentary aspect of the subject.
Salami (2005) defined instructional materials as collection of materials and equipment that can be used to facilitate the process of communication otherwise called interaction in the classroom teaching. Such materials are organized and used to effect a control of message, to motivate, catch and hold attention, stimulate the function of the human sense thus aiding understanding and interpretation and or recreation of meaning.
In view of this acts any improvement in the teaching and learning process of business education were seen as a step to sound educational function at all levels of our educational system. In this perspective, the factor responsible for mass failure in business education are lack of trained teacher, insufficient facilities, unavailability of up-to-date textbooks, unseriousness on the part of the students and above all lack of motivation on the part of the lectures who handle the course. In addition to these, lack of basic instructional packages and indifferent attitude of the students could facilitate students poor performance business education in junior secondary school.
The concern of the study is to investigate into the use of instructional materials for effective teaching and learning of business education in junior secondary schools
1.2

5.0 SUMMARY, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
5.1 Summary
This research work was carried out to investigate the influence of instructional materials in teaching of business education and academic performance of junior secondary school students in Ilorin Kwara State.
The research designed adopted was descriptive survey questionnaire was used to collect data from the sampled students in the school while frequency count and percentage was the tool used to analyze the data collected from administered questionnaire. A total of one hundred and fifty (150) respondents were sampled for the study.
The result revealed that instructional materials if appropriately used could facilitate effective understanding and this will improve their academic achievement.
The use of an appropriate instructional aid in teaching and learning as ascertained by Salami (2006) improve the teacher teaching methodology through which effective classroom interaction is facilitated.
Also, it was revealed from the study that student academic performance was drastically improved when an appropriate instructional materials was used, thus the study conclude that instructional material is an important key factor in instruction.
5.2
Conclusion
The essence of instructional materials usage in classroom interaction is to facilitate effective understanding between the learners and the facilitators (teachers) there is the need for the school managers to provide an appropriate instructional materials for the right instruction so that the goal of education could better achieved and provide productive classroom organization.
The importance of using instructional materials as teaching aids in schools cannot be overemphasized. Students need simplified means of instructing them which is readily provided through instructional materials when used as teaching aid improves student performance in biology. Hence, effort must be geared towards ensuring that students were taught using appropriate instructional materials. In conclusion teaching students in the study area without the use of instructional materials as teaching aids will be a form of discrimination as their presence make teaching more meaningful.
5.3
Implication of the Study
This research study shows the relevant of instructional materials in teaching and learning processes. It is a well-known fact that classroom interaction is promoted through the use of appropriate instructional aids thus the schools and concerned authorities should make necessary provision in line with the recommendation of this research study.
5.4
Recommendations
For effective instructional delivery package, adequate instructional materials should be made available for schools. Also there is need for effective supervision and appraisal of available ones for ease of maintenance and accessibility.
In support of this assertion Salami (2006) suggested that necessary improvisation should be practice to enhance availability. However the following recommendations are provided:
- Grants and allowances should be included as part of the teachers salaries which must cater for the purchase of some of this materials to facilitate effective teaching packages.
- The National Union of Teachers (NUT), curriculum implementation bodies and some concerned stakeholders should organize a seminar and workshop which must be made compulsory for all teachers in the study area on the methodology involves in using of appropriate instructional materials in teaching learning processes.
- I will also enjoin teachers in the school to put to use the available instructional materials in their teaching, most especially in business education instruction to make learning concrete in the mind of the learners through which their academic performance will be better enhanced.
5.4Limitation of the Study
The study is set out to investigate the relevance of instructional materials in teaching of business education and academic achievement among junior secondary school students. The study is restricted to students of Kwara State junior secondary school of Ilorin, this is due to the limited time available for the researcher to go around and get reliable data for the study. However it is hope that future research will facilitate additional information that could enhance good result
5.5
Suggestions for Further Studies
It is confirmed that the use of instructional materials enhances improved teaching and learning in business education instruction. However, the following suggestions were made for future research study.
- For the fact that the study is restricted to school nursing Ilorin, it is hoped that future research work should carry out in other schools within the state to established the fact on the relevance of instructional materials in business education instruction
- Other subject taught in the junior secondary school should also be considered for future research work and see how applicable are instructional materials in the teaching of such subject and the academic achievement of the students.
- The same topic should be conducted in other State of the country and give a correlation analysis of the results obtained.
