The federal government of Nigeria is actively involved in providing
quality education to its citizens. For this reason it has
assumed responsibility for improving the standards on all levels of
education by encouraging the use of modern educational techniques. In
1977, it became national education policy to emphasize the use of
instructional media in the classroom.
This study was conducted in order to discover whether the educational
practice in Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, was in accordance
with the Nigerian educational policy. A survey instrument, which
included 18 items of non-print (non-book) instructional media, was
developed to determine its availability for various departments, and
for classroom use by university teachers. Copies of the instrument
(questionnaires) were sent to 300 teachers in Ahmadu Bello University,
Zaria, during the 1982-83 academic year. Two hundred and thirty-two
of the teachers completed and returned their questionnaires.

After analyzing the data, it was found that the majority of the
teachers claimed that most of the media under investigation was not
available in their departments. Some of the media, however, was said
to be available in the university. The majority of the teachers
(more than 72.0% of the respondents) have never used the media under
investigation.
