CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
In Nigeria as many other developing countries,
education has been us usually considered to be the cornerstone of economic
growth and developments. Nigeria government believes that to survive in the
competitive world economy quality of education is the key variable.
The need for research in educational planning, the
education industry is fast becoming rather complex to manage, hence it is today faced with a lot of complex
problems which emanate from different sources namely, the learners, the
teachers and authorities in and out of the school, the micro and macro
environments.
In the last couple of years also according to Borg
& Gall (1979) educational research has become much more complex and
sophisticated, which enable researchers to make increasingly valuable
contributions to educational practice. Research is directed towards the
solution of a problem, it may attempt to answer a questions or to determine the
relationship between two or more variables. If there is no problem, there will
be no need for research.
Research emphasizes the development of
generalizations, principles or theories that will be helpful in predicting
future occurrences. Research usually goes beyond the specific objects groups or
situations investigated and it infers the characteristics of a target
population from the sample observed, research is more than information
retrieval.
Research involves gathering new data from primary
or firsthand sources or using existing data for a new purpose. Not only this,
research is empirical observable, can be tested).
It is the collection of data that identifies
research as empirical. It should be realized that certain things/question do
not lend themselves to research procedures because they cannot be observed.
Research requires expertise and confidence. A
researcher has been on which to build on. This forces the researcher to aspire
to inject some originality into his work.
Further still, research is logical and objective.
The researcher applies every possible step to validate the procedures employed.
The data collected and the conclusions reached. He attempts to eliminate
personal feelings and blasé. There is no attempts to personalize or to prove
and emotionally held conviction.
The emphasis is on testing rather than on proving
the hypothesis.
Researcher must expect disappointments and
discouraging encounters as he/she pursues the answers to different question. A
good researcher must not expect something for nothing.
One of the first steps in carrying out educational
research according to Borg & Gall (1979) is to develop a research plans but
before doing this one must know something about sampling educational
measurement, research design and other important elements in the research
process.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The poor funding of education in most third world
countries does enable the system to have manageable class sizes, adequate
student, classroom space and appropriate class utilization rates, inspite of
the fact that these factors determine the productivity of teachers and students

education is seen to be falling below the standard.

our youths and the nation as a whole bleak, without hope. The National Policy
