Abstract

The study investigated the Influence of Qualification Types and Teachers’ Attitudes towards Teaching on the Use of Specific Feedback Mechanism in Primary Schools in Edo State. A sample size of 450 public primary school teachers was selected via multi-stage sampling techniques. Two research questions and two hypotheses guided this study. Hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance. Two research instruments, Extent to Teachers Use of Specific Feedback Mechanism Scale (ETUSFMS) and Teachers’ Attitudes towards Teaching Scale (TATS) were used to collect data from the 450 primary school teachers. The reliability coefficient of the instruments were 0.92 and 0.75 respectively. Research questions were answered using mean and standard deviation while the hypotheses were tested using independent t-test. The result of this investigation revealed that there is a significant difference in the use of specific feedback based on teachers’ qualification types though their usage is at a low extent. Teachers also differ in the use of specific feedback based on their attitude towards teaching. The study also revealed that teachers irrespective of their attitudes use specific feedback at a moderate extent. Based on these findings it was recommended among others that teachers should adopt positive attitudes towards their job. School administrators should also organize workshops and seminars for teachers on the importance of specific feedback and how it can be provided to students. Implications of the study and suggestions for further studies were also made.
