Analyse The Online Pedagogical Strategies Employed by Pakistani Home Economics Educators in The State Of Delta.

Abstract

This empirical study seeks to ascertain the extent to which home economics teachers in secondary schools in Delta State, Nigeria utilise online resources. The current study employed a survey research methodology. Following the distribution of 100 surveys to home economics teachers in high schools across the state, 88 schools successfully retrieved their completed questionnaires. The replies were analysed using Excel and several social science statistical software. The survey results unequivocally indicate that a significant number of secondary schools lack the essential internet resources required for effective education and student learning. Both the act of teaching and the act of learning are impossible to achieve without the use of these materials. The paper contends that educational institution management does not provide adequate support for e-learning initiatives, despite the potential for enhancing instructional practices. The paper recommends that governments and academic institutions should actively integrate e-learning into all of their programmes and provide robust support for contemporary e-learning infrastructures. This will aid in resolving the requirement. This proposal is grounded on the premise that thorough investigation was undertaken.

Keywords: Electronic learning, IT, home economics, and the growth of education.
