dc.description.abstractThe study was designed to examine "the Impact of the Millennium Development Goals training on the teaching performance of basic Social Studies Education teachers in Katsina state" It considered two research questions and two hypotheses which bordered on the difference in the performance of Social Studies Education teachers exposed to the MDGs training workshop and those who were not exposed to it, as well as the difference in the academic performance of the pupils taught by teachers exposed to the MDGs' training workshop and those who were not. Three hundred and eighty one (381) primary four pupils and three hundred and sixty one (361) teachers were selected from the ten (10) local government areas of the state. The researcher used achievement test for pupils while questionnaire was administered to the teachers. In dependent t-test sample statistics was used. The result revealed significant difference in the academic performance of primary school pupils between those taught by MDGs teachers and their counterparts taught by teachers who did not attend the MDGs programme . The teachers exposed to the MDGs training programme had significantly higher teaching performance than their counterparts that were not exposed to the MDGs training programme. The second null hypothesis which stated that there is no significant difference in the academic performance of pupils taught by MDGS teachers and those not taught by MDGS teachers was rejected. Some of the recommendations, include: certificates should be awarded to teachers who participate in the MDGs programme. Interactive programme in form of seminars and workshops should be organized for teachers to enable them acquire the pedagogical disposition for implementing the UBE curriculum. Follow up activities should be introduced to ensure that what the teachers learnt at the workshops were implemented in the classroom.en_US
