Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the Identification of Difficult Teaching and Learning Topic in Junior Secondary School in Integrated Science and Computer Science Curriculum in Nigeria, (A Case Study of Junior Secondary School Class 3). Five Research questions were formulated to guide the study. These include; the extent to which lack of use of instructional materials in integrated science and computer science bring difficulties in teaching and learning of topics in these both subjects in the system. Secondly, to find out the extent to which the students attitudes bring about difficulties in the teaching and learning of topics in integrated science and computer science in J.S.S3 classes. Thirdly, to find out the extent to which lack of trained teachers in integrated and computer science bring about difficulties in teaching and learning of the topics in both subjects in the junior secondary school classes. Fourthly, to find out the extent to which lack of proper teaching method in integrated science and computer science bring in the teaching and learning of topics in both subjects in the J.S.S 3 in particular in the system. Finally, to find out the extent to which lack of non-use of instructional materials in integrated science and computer science, bring about in the teaching and learning topics in both subjects in the junior secondary school class 3. From the table vi and vii and their analysis, it is evident that the teachers and students simply agreed that some topics in integrated and computer science are easy while others are difficult. From the finding in research question two it was established that the students perception differs from that of the teachers. In research question 3 it was discovered that lack of proper teaching method in integrated and computer science results in poor performance of student in the subjects. In research question 4, it was discovered that lack of non-use of instructional materials in integrated and computer science resulted in improper digestion and assimilation of the studies by the students to be very low and uninteresting. Finally recommendations and conclusion were made based on the findings.
