| dc.description.abstract | The study was conducted in an attempt to assess the implementation of social studies curriculum in primary schools with emphasis on social studies teachers, final year pupils, and parents with children/wards in the final level. The research design adopted was a survey design. The research instruments were questionnaire and documentary sources relevant to the research topic. Twelve (12) primary schools were selected out of one thousand three hundred and seventeen schools through purposeful sampling based on geographical location. Three hundred and forty one subjects representing the entire population were engaged in this study. Four null hypotheses were tested and analyzed using one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and t-test statistical method. The outcome of the study revealed that utilizing the inquiry approach in teaching social studies enhances student’s mastery of the subject because it allows them full participation during teaching learning sessions. The study also revealed that teaching materials were inadequate in some primary schools in Kano Metropolis, and government is paying less attention to the issue of instructional facilities in public primary schools. The outcome of hypothesis three revealed that pupils are aware of useful values in the society regardless of age. The outcome of hypothesis four also revealed that parents are satisfied with pupil’s level of value awareness and social behavior in and out of school. Therefore, hypotheses one, three, and four of this study were accepted while only hypothesis two was rejected. The study concludes with a recommendation for further research. | en_US |
