FACTORS MILITATING AGAINST THE
TEACHING OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING CREATE PRACTICE IN GOVERNMENT TECHNICAL
COLLEGES
ABSTRACT
The journey on the path of technical
education started as far back as in the 1930’s when the commission on Higher
Education proposed that the premises of Yaba Higher College should be converted
to a technical institute. In line with this arrangement a student was expected
to spend two years in general studied department and three years in an area of
specialization like the mechanical engineering craft department. Responses to
questions posed by the researcher have shown that mechanical engineering craft
practice is laudable but on the other hand, the country appears not prepared
for the effective implementation of this programme. There seems to be no
concrete arrangement on who to finance it and no proper orientation was made to
acquit teachers with the function of the scheme. The result of the analysis in
the preceding chapter shows that inadequacy of teachers, la ck of well equipped
workshop, lack of well equipped laboratories and libraries, non-availability of
finance and non provision of accessories are the major factors militating
against this course. It is hereby recommended that the government should
provide equipments, train instructional personnel for the programme, well
equipped laboratories and supply relevant and adequate text books to technical
colleges.
CHAPTER ONE
1.0 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Educational
from the beginning has been a strong instrument of change towards our economic,
social, political and technology development.
In he past
years, Nigeria has realized that she can attain self reliance through
technological advancement and so has placed serious emphasis on technology
education (Eze 1996) technical or vocational education is one of he form of
education that is in existence before the introduction of western education in
Nigeria. Oshuala (1995:145) stated that technical education is an education
designed at upper secondary and lower tertiary levels to prepare middle level
personnel and at university level to prepare engineers and technologists for
higher management positions. The advanced Learner’s Dictionary as cited in
Okorie (1981:29) referred to technical education as “the phase of education
which seeks to help the students acquire special mechanical or manipulative
skills required in industrial arts or applied science”. A more detailed
definition of technical education was provided by the committee on research and
publications of the American Vocational Association which stated that
vocational education is “education designed to develop skills, abilities,
understanding attitudes, work habits and appreciations encompassing knowledge
and information needed by workers to enter and make progress in employment on a
useful and productive basis”. They are various skills taught as part of
informal education, these are farming, weaving, sculpturing, blacksmithing and
so on.
When the
missionaries introduced western
education, they aimed at teaching Christian ethics, reading, writing,
arithmetic and later it was expanded and they introduced, farming, block laying
and carpentry as part of western education but these skills were not seriously regarded by pupils and
parents as an integral part of western education and the practice virtually
died out before the turn of the present century.
The
introduction of this course in Government Technical College Enugu State marks
the beginning of organized technical and vocational education in Nigeria. It
also marked the beginning of mechanical engineering craft practice. To be
sincere, the importance of mechanical engineering craft practice cannot be over
emphasized because effective technological education serves as a powerful
instrument for national development.
The national
policy on education (1971) defines technical education as aspect of education
which leads to the acquisition of practical and applied skill as well as basic
scientific knowledge. Engineering technology is important for the support it
gives directly or indirectly to man for her existence ad economical development
for comfort. Technology contributes very remarkably to the government revenue
and foreign exchange earning. These is however no doubt that the technology is
a basic foundation for our welfare sound economic development and technological
advancement.
1.2 STATEMENT OF PRBLEMS
It is found
that the objective for which mechanical engineering craft was introduced or
established in our various Government technical colleges more especially in
Enugu State is almost dying out in Enugu State. In this course the researcher
has taken interest to study the factors that militate against the teaching of
mechanical engineering craft practice in Government Technical Colleges in Enugu
State.
1.3 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
This study
tends to investigate the factor militating against the teaching of mechanical
engineering craft practice in government technical colleges in Enugu State.
Particularly, the study will tend to determine.
1. The qualification of teachers
teaching the course.
2. the quality of laboratory and
workshop equipment
3. the level of students interest in
the craft.
4. financing of the course/craft.
