    THESIS-PROOF

    According to Ezegbe (1994), Social Studies


    Education has a lot of contributions towards the
    attainment of national objectives. It involves the
    adult and the young within the society to develop
    their competencies to enable them solve and manage
    the socio-economic and physical forces arising in
    their midst.
    Abubakar (2013) stated that Social Studies
    Education contribute in achieving national objective
    by relying on its peculiar methodology using inquiry,
    topical problematic, project activities and other
    approaches to expose the children to pros and cons of
    various situation, so that they can arrive at their own
    independent conclusions based on reason judgement.
    PROBLEM-SOLUTION DIAGRAM
    Questions Answers

    1. What is the problem? The way of teaching because it can affect


    the attention of the students to listen in
    the discussion. If the teacher is just only
    giving an exam or quizzes without
    explaining the topic clearly. And also its
    necessary to give some activities to take
    the attention of the students. and also
    having favoritism the teacher must be
    blind and she or he must be equal to
    his/her students

    2. What are the effects? The students will become unfocused and
    uninterested to the class and it may also
    lead to absenteeism.
    3. What are the causes? • Because of the unhealthy ways of
    teaching and unequal treatment of
    instructor.

    4. . What are the solutions? • Be transparent and improve their


    method of teaching so that it will
    help to open up the mind of the
    students to reality of life and it
    will also help to raise the
    AWARENESS of the students of
    what is really happening in the
    world around him or her and to
    the society where he or she
    belong.
    My Realization
    Being a future teacher it is a must to fulfill
    our duties but it will become more meaningful
    if we can expand the knowledge of our students
    through our different teaching methodologies,
    and those knowledge they been learned is
    applicable in their everyday life. And what
    matters most is we are the one who shape and
    guide them into the right path and lead them
    for their future self.
