dc.description.abstractThis research examined the problems hindering the successful teaching of CRK in Kaduna state. It is observed that Christian Religious Knowledge in our primary schools in Kaduna state is not yielding the desired result; inspite of various workshop carried out by National Association of Bible Knowledge Teachers of Nigeria to improve and promote the teaching of the subject in the past. Again available records reveal that Christian Religions Knowledge is one of the oldest subjects in the school curriculum in Nigeria even though it came late to the North (Kaduna State) in 1914.As one of the earliest subjects in the school curriculum one expects that there would have been much progress and less problem in the teaching of the subject, but a close observation revealed that pupils are not morally sound, teachers attitudes are not encouraging among other things. This study is therefore undertaken to evaluate the implementation strategy of the Christian Religious Knowledge curriculum in Kaduna state primary schools and to highlight the problems militating against the attainment of the desired objectives and how this problems may be solved. The areas examined include: qualification of CRK teachers, method of teaching, teaching aids and mode of assessment. The findings reveal that teachers still use the traditional methods of teaching; the primary schools lack facilities and materials for effective teaching and learning of the subject. Four hypotheses are raised and tested. T – Test and analysis of variance were used to test if there is any significant difference in the subject’s responses. Several findings were made: It was discovered that there are many qualified teachers teaching in primary schools in the state, but only a few are qualified Christian Religious Knowledge teachers; they lack adequate textbooks for teaching the subject. It is therefore recommended that adequate facilities (teaching aids) should be made available. Qualified CRK teachers should be employed to teach the subject in all the primary schools in the state. CRK teachers should use teaching methods that will motivate pupils in learning the subject.en_US
