dc.description.abstractThis study on the Evaluation of Final Year NCE Students on the adequacy of the NCCE Social Studies programme for citizenship Education’ attempts to find answers to the following major questions: i) Has the NCCE Social Studies programme academically prepared the Social Studies Final Year Students to effectively function as citizenship trainers at the primary and JSS levels of our educational system? ii) What is the level of Final Year Students’ opinion and feelings about the programme, as a result of their exposure to the NCCE Social Studies programme? iii) Is there any relationship between Final Year Students’ teacher-trainees cognitive achievement and their opinion as regards the adequacy of the NCCE Social Studies programme in preparing them for effective citizenship training? It is within this framework, that both the major objectives and hypotheses of the study were articulated. The population of the study involved all the final year Social Studies teacher-trainees in the conventional Colleges of Education. Within this population, twelve Colleges of Education were sampled for the study. Two major instruments were used in obtaining data from the twelve Colleges of Education sampled for the study. They are the NCE basic citizenship achievement test (NCEBAT) and NCCE content opinionaire (NECO). From the analysis of the data obtained, the following findings were established: 1. The respondents recorded a 81.7% success on achievement test. Thus indicating that the NCCE is achieving its objectives. There seems to be no wastage in the system. 2. 62% of the respondents displayed favourable attitudes as to the adequacy of their opinion preparation. With respect to the inferential analysis, the findings showed that hypotheses one to four and eight were found to be significant when tested at P>0.05 level of significance. On the other hand, hypotheses five (5) and six (6) were upheld at the same level of significance. Based on these findings, it was recommended that the scope of assessing the NCE teacher-trainees be widened by evolving a package of assessing their feelings and opinions at least before graduation rather than restricting the level of assessment on academic achievement alone. The NCCE to assume more responsibilities on the training of NCE teachers. These should include acting as a common examining body for the accredited colleges as well as funding. NCE teacher-trainees to be exposed to common professional examination before graduation. It was suggested for further research, the need for a longitudinal study to assess the level of NCE teachers’ components in the field.en_US
