Abstract :
The researcher examined fostering a
functional electronic work skills acquisition in
Government Technical Colleges (GTC) for peaceful coexistence in South West, Nigeria. Descriptive survey
research design was adopted for the study. This is
because the items seek for the views, opinions and
information of the respondents. Three research
questions were raised for the study. The targeted
population for the study was hundred and fifty (150)
electronic work instructors using stratified and ballot
multi sampling technique to select five instructors from
five GTCs in each of the state of South West geo-political
zone of Nigeria were used for the study. There was no
sample technique for the study because of the population
small size. The instrument for the data collection was
questionnaire tagged fostering a Functional Electronic
work Skills Acquisitions in GTCs for Peaceful
Coexistence in Nigeria (FFRTEWSAQ). Five Likert
rating scale of Very Often= 5, Often=4, Sometimes=3,
Rarely =2 and Never=1. The questionnaire was validated
by three experts from Electrical/Electronic technology
education unit of Technical Education Department of
Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, Oyo, and
Oyo State using face and content validity. Test retest
method was conducted twice in Kwara state’s GTCs at
an interval of two weeks to determine reliability of the
instrument using Spearman Brown formular to obtain
0.70 reliability coefficients indicating that is appropriate
and reliable for the study. Mean and Standard Deviation
were used to analysis the data from the three research
questions at a cutoff point of greater than or equal to 3.0
and 0.50 as Highly required (HR) and less than or equal
to 2.49 and 0.49 regarded as deviation Not required (NR)
having used SPSS Version 22 for the data analysis.
Discussions of findings were made based on outcome of
research study and compare with others previous
research study Conclusion and recommendations were
made among which are: The youths should be
encouraged to have interest in technical education where
career trades can be chosen on their own comparative
advantage of talented skills instead of pursuing courses
that cannot offer them self-reliance in future. More of
the technical colleges should be established and equipped
with modern facilities to give rooms for more students
who develop interest in career trades in technical
colleges.
