BASIC DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY (PRE TECHNICAL SKILLS) COURSE STRUCTURE AND DESIGN SUITABILITY IN DEVELOPING JUNIOR HHIGH SCHOOL TWO STUDENTS TO FIT APPROPRIATELY INTO SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAMS FOR GOOD ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN GHANA.

Abstract

Course structure and design is very important when it comes to preparation of standardized documents to be used by Ghana Education Service for teaching and learning. It is therefore empirical to prepare the same document for Basic Design and Technology (BDT - pre technical skills option) subject for Junior High School 2 and establish its suitability in training students to fit into senior high schools (SHS) programs in Ghana. Scheme of work is a necessity to be prepared by every teacher for every semester’s work where chronological arrangements of topics to be covered based on the syllabus are documented. Once this is done, teaching and learning is done in that order in achieving semester’s goals and objectives. Lesson plan should be planned, structured and written for usage in teaching and learning together with teaching and learning materials (TLMs). After referring to the BDT (pre technical skills) syllabus in preparing scheme of work and lesson plans for teaching and learning using TLMs, standardized test items should be well constructed to assess students understanding of teaching topics. This will serve as the perfect mechanism to assess students’ performance for upgrade or promotion to the next level in education. Findings from this research indicates that, current pre technical skills syllabus is adequate but not totally as students prepared in this subject are not fitting perfectly into senior high school programs. Students enrolled in programs such as science and technical find difficulty in subject likes mathematics, physics and technical drawings. Reasons being that, they face problems in basic technical drawings and skills hence the need for readjustment, modification, and alteration of the basic design and technology (pre technical skills) syllabus used by Junior High School 2 students in Ghana.
