Students’ Background and Needs for Effective Teaching of Accounting in Senoir High Schools

Description

This book attempts to find out some of the significant but usually ignored factors that influence students’ background and needs for effective teaching of accounting in senior high schools. It focused on the background and needs of female and male students in senior high school. In achieving this goal, two senior high schools were chosen as the study area. It was found out that teaching and learning in Senior High Schools were abstract because computers, internet and reference materials which make lesson lively and practical are not available. Again, lack of speaking, reading, listening skills, etc. among students in the Senior High Schools were due to the way they were taught in the pre-secondary education. However, they encountered so many challenges in the quest to satisfy these academics needs and wants. Among these challenges are lack of adequate learning material, inadequate feeding, non-varying teaching skills of teachers etc. The book establishes that the economic constraint experienced in the country is increasingly pushing most students and more specially, brilliant but needy students, from reaching their educational ambition and aspirations.
