BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Following the general observed learning problems in our society today, the call for the review of the source has been at a higher demand to this extend, this study has been aimed at examining the influences of professionalism in teaching and learning output. Thus, it sets to study the difference, if any; between the teaching qualities of teachers with teaching certificate
(professionals and those without teaching qualification (unprofessional) as will be measured in the academic performance of their students. The researchers project the study against an introductory background which illuminates the observed prevailing leaning problems among our students which had triggered the investigation. The researchers state the research problem and declares their objectives for the study which if achieved, will be significantly useful for government in decision making towards system training and recruitment of teachers to check the stated problems in our society. The researchers subject the stated problems to some researchable questions which will be refined into some feasible hypothesis. The researcher review some theories of professionalism, related literatures to the study and experts opinions which may offer support to study. The design of the study will be a “quasiexperimental study with two-group design (experimental and control group).
The area of the study Queens Model Int’l school . The population of the study will cover all the senior secondary school 111 of the college from which the researcher drew the sample for the study according to the population size.
Randomization is the sampling technique applied to check bias effect from such heterogeneous thereby offering every member equal chance of being a participant in the study. The participants will be splint into two groupsexperimental and control where the experimental group receives teaching
ii treatment from professional teachers, the control group takes teaching treatment form unprofessional teachers in common subjects (English Language and Mathematics). Testing instruments[achievement test) is standard test from
National Examination Council (NECO). The mean score of this achievement test form the two groups will be compared and a test of significance (T.-test) will be applied to determine the significant difference between these two sets of scores, if found and established a generalizable decision on the influence of teachers processional training on the students academic performance. To the above, the researcher divide the reports of this study into five (5) chapters: One contains the introduction and background, two reviews theories, three displays the methodologies applied, four gives analysis of the collected data while the last chapter summarize and concludes the decisions reached and presents recommendations.
ABSTRACT
This research study which focused on finding the influence of teachers’ professional training on students’ academic performance was limited in one secondary school. Queens Model Int’l Enugu as the area of the study where the entire senior secondary school III were the target population from which a sample of 60 participants (students) were randomly selected, splint into two group (experimental and control group), thereafter, each group was treated with teaching in two subjects (English
Language and Mathematics). These two subjects were taught to each group evenly but the experimental group was taught by professionally trained teachers, the control group was under unprofessionally trained teachers (quacks). A standardized (NECO) achievement test was administered to the two groups at the same time after four weeks lession period (treatment). The scores from these two groups were compared and finally subjected to a test of significant (independent-test). The result of the comparison indicated a wide difference in the groups academic performance gave for the researchers to reject their original null hypothesis and accept the alternative which stated that “there will be a significant difference of the independent variable (professional and unprofessional) on the dependent variable (academic performance of the study was determined by a t-result which disproved the second null hypothesis and granted acceptability to its alternative which advocated that the academic performance of learners will be influenced by their teacher’s level of professional training significantly”. To this, the researchers were able to establish that level of teacher’s professional training goes a long way in determining the learning quality of the learners.
