THE
INFLUENCE OF AUDIO VISUAL TEACHING MATERIALS ON LEARNING IN PRE-PRIMARY SCHOOLS
ABSTRACT
This study
investigated the influence of audio visual teaching materials on learning in
some pre-primary schools in Odeda Local Government Area of Ogun State. It is a
descriptive study in which the survey research design was adopted. The sample
consisted of 60 teachers from 10 pre-primary schools randomly selected from
Odeda Local Government in Ogun State. A questionnaire was used for data
collection. The study identified that there is a great influence of audio
visual teaching materials on learning in pre-primary school pupils which has
affected positively the use of audio visual in teaching in the selected
schools. It is therefore recommended that audio visual materials should be used
for teaching in the pre-primary schools.
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY
Teaching
according to Oladapo and Ayeni (2000),
involves bringing about or at least facilitating desirable changes in
learners. However, effective teaching requires the teacher to step out of the
realm of personal experience and step into the world of learners. It is the
learner who must be engaged for learning to occur. The learner is the one who
must make the commitment to learner.
Research evidence shows that the
major problem in pre-primary schools is the method of impacting knowledge. To
this Adepoju (2006) revealed that the difficulties pupils encounter when they
are receiving instruction is basically linked to poor usage of audio visual
aids. This is also confirmed as the study carried out by Rasual (2011) which
revealed that the method employed in using audio visual tools in most of our
public pre-primary schools in inadequate
Audio Visual aids help to relate
the general concept to actual reality. Words are often inadequate in
communicating information or images of things of which the pupils have no
direct experience. Whatsoever the content of the curriculum, a model, picture
or a sketch can make the concept clearly understandable. Audio visual aids are
used in class rooms to enhance the teaching –learning process, making it easier
and interesting. Audio visual aids are the best tools for making teaching
effective and the best for dissemination of knowledge when it comes to pre-
primary education (Rasaula,Buklishb, and Batoo,2011).
Research on teaching, teaching methods,
teaching materials, audio visual aid and learning by the pupils has for long been of interest to educationists. Some
studies (Adufe, 2008; Adepoju, 2006), have been carried out on certain aspects
of the use of audio-visuals in teaching but have not investigated on how it
influences the academic performance of pupils being taught. Hence, there is the need to
investigate the influence of teachers use of audio visual media on pupils
academic performance.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
For a long
time now, few researches have been undertaken to investigate the availability,
use and effects of teaching learning resources. Most of the information on
these few studies available are on the importance of teaching learning aids and
not whether or not these leaning resources when used in teaching, make impact
on the performance of these pupils academically. This gap has left little
information for other researches and key stake holders in education to work
with.
This study
therefore examines the influence of audio-visual teaching materials on learning
in selected pre-primary schools.
1.3 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
This
research work was carried out essentially to achieve the following objectives:
a. Identifying the various kinds of
audio-visual learning aids available in the selected schools.
b. Examining the use of audio-visual
materials and their media in those schools.
c. Evaluating the perceived impact of the
use or otherwise of the audio-visual materials on the performance of the pupils
in the schools under study.
d. Discovering the constraints inherent in
the use of audio- visual materials and their equipment in those schools and
suggesting of ways of overcoming them.
1.4 RESEACH QUESTION
The
following research questions were posed.
a. Which kinds of audio visual learning
aids are available in pre-primary schools selected?
b. How often are these materials and media
used in these schools?
c. What is the perception of pre-primary
school teachers on the effectiveness of the use of audio visual materials in
enhancing the performance of pupils in the selected schools? video, which are
being used in teaching to schools?
1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
This study
is delimited to the impact of the use of the audio –visual materials on pupils
learning in selected pre-primary schools. Only pre-primary schools in Odeda local
government Area of Ogun State were be involved in the study.
1.6 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The
significance of this study is that it would provide information on the
availability or otherwise of audio-visual teaching materials in schools. It would
also reveal the influence of audio-visual materials on children’s
learning.
Furthermore,
it would shed light on the constraints associated with the use of these
materials. This would underscore the need for the government and proprietors of
schools to make audio-visual teaching materials available for teaching in
pre-primary schools .It would also stress the need for workshops and training
programmes for pre-school teachers on the effective use of these materials to
enhance teaching and learning at the pre-primary school level. It would
motivate parents to make audio-visual educative materials (such as CDs and
DVDS) available for children’s learning at home in addition to what is learnt
in school.
1.7 DEFINITION OF TERMS
Audio: Audio
materials are teaching materials that deal with hearing and make use of the ear
as a medium for carrying audible information. Audio systems include Radio, tape
recorder, voice, talking drum, ear phone, loud speakers and audio CD’s among
others.
Visual:
Visual means the act of seeing. Visual aids include, a picture, video, which
are used in teaching to help pupils to learn and understand.
Audio Visual
Materials: These materials provide learners the opportunity of hearing and
watching activities. Audio visual materials can be defined as the means by
which learners learn by hearing and watching activities for entertainment ,news
and educational purpose.
Learning can
be defined as the act of acquiring new or modifying and reinforcing exciting
knowledge, behaviour, skills values or preference and may involve synthesizing
different types of information.
