CHAPTER 2

REVIEW RELATED LITERATURE

Successful exposition may take many different forms but the following are
some of the qualities which should be present: it challenges and provokes

The pupils to think it is reactive to pupils needs and so it exploits

questioning techniques and discussions; it is used at different points in the
process of learning and so, for example, it may take the form of pulling
together a variety of activities in which pupils have been engaged; and it
uses a variety of stimuli.

RELATED LITERATURE

single parameter by those society judges their products of educational system facts appears to
reflect the tyranny of the cognitive component of the taxonomy of educational objectives of any

It has been well established that the high schools students attend contribute significantly to how well
they do in college, and even if they choose to attend college at all (Lee & Frank, 1990).
Low performing high schools tend to under-prepare their students for post-secondary education and
contribute to the very high percentages of students who arrive at college without the requisite skills to
succeed in college level courses. In fact, based on a very large longitudinal study of community
college pathways, Adelman (2005) noted,“if community colleges seek to improve transfer rates, they
Education is valued because it contributes to the national development through the provision of an
appropriate human resource that helps to stimulate productivity and eliminate hunger, poverty, disease
and ignorance. This study investigated the factors responsible for mass failure of student in home
economics in secondary schools in Nkanu East Local Government Area of Enugu State.  A total of two
hundred questionnaires were used and were subjected to data analysis. The objectives of this research
included: to identify the reasons for mass failure of students in home economics in Nkanu East Local
Government Area,to investigate the efforts of teachers in combating mass failure of students in home
economics in Nkanu East Local Government Area and to survey the impact of teachers on students in
ensuring better performance of students in home economics in Nkanu East Local Government Area
would be advised to start the paths in feeder secondary schools”(page xvii). This is ostensibly because
coursework in the secondary schools predicts significantly the likelihood of ultimately transferring and
gaining a college degree. And, especially in California, there has been pronounced attention to the very
high percentages of students entering community college who are in need of remedial education.
