INTRODUCTION
Background of the Study:
A well developed scientific and technological base are conditional to any national human and material development. Nigeria has been classified as a developing nation and has continued to make a break through by emphasizing much on science and technology thereby making inclusive of Accounting education in the curriculum of the junior and senior secondary schools.impediments to the acquisition
During the ministerial council meeting of the national council on Education in 1987, the Federal Government of Nigeria deiced to introduce Accounting education into the nation’s secondary school system. This was followed by the inauguration of the National committees on Accounting education the same year. The functions of the committee among others included, planning for dynamic policy on Accounting education and literacy in Nigeria as well as devising clear strategies and terminologies to be used by the federal and state governments in the introducing Accounting education .impediments to the acquisition
The general objective of the policy are:
1. To bring about a Accounting literate society in Nigeria.
2. To enable the present school children to appreciate and use the Accounting in various aspect of life and in future employment. The modalities for achieving stated objectives include;
1). Training teachers and associated personal
2). Provision of hardware facilities
3). Curriculum development.
4). Software developments and evaluation.
5). Maintenance of hardware.
The above enumerated strategies can promote or impede the acquisition of Accounting knowledge. Functionalities of the strategies would promote acquisition while deficiency in implementation would constitute an impediment to the acquisition of Accounting knowledge. According to Francisca (2003) the polices are poorly implemented due to poor training and orientation of key implements (teachers). Through constant practice, workshop and seminars, the teachers will be equipped in relevant knowledge needed in Accounting education which are appropriate for effective teaching and learning of Accounting education .Accounting requires practices and only the teachers that knows the practices can teach it very well.impediments to the acquisition
Impediments with regard to the stated strategies the non availability of Hardware facilities in acquisition of computer education. Okon (1992) reported on the declining standard of teaching which is done without exposing the students to any form of practical experiences. The acquisition of Accounting education with the hardware facilities is just like going to school without pen and Books. In the 1990 National Conference on Curriculum development Accounting education was not inclusive in the issues discussed which now made the acquisition of Accounting education very difficult in the secondary school because it was not included early in the curriculum.impediments to the acquisition
Proper teaching and learning with regard to Accounting education in the state secondary schools have been known to have suffered some set backs. There set backs have been generated by certain conditions such as:
1. Inadequate Provision of Facilities
2. Lack of Trained Personnel
3. Financial Constraint
4. Organizational Constraint (time frame for teaching Accounting in school; periods allocated to Accounting).
On Inadequate Provision of Facilities Ajavero (1998) noted that absence of facilities in acquisition of knowledge creates problems and confusion to the learner instead of making changes in the learners’ life. Ezike (1991) added that Accounting education class is a room where money management are programmed, practicalzed, ordered, grouped, recorded, rearranged, constructed among many other activities but the question is how facilitated is the room that could be boast the acquisition of Accounting for without facilities, the acquisition of Accounting is not effective.
On lack of Trained Personnel Abiodum (2007), reveled that hence Accounting is “Cabage in cabage out” There is need that Accounting teachers are well trained otherwise they will cabage wrong thing into the children, and the children will as well Cabage out the Wrong thing. Francisca (2003), said that many of the laudable curriculum we have in use are poorly implements due to poor training and orientation of key implementers (teachers) of these curricula. The teachers through constant workshop and seminars should be well equipped in the relevant methodologies and knowledge that are appropriate for effective teaching of Accounting.impediments to the acquisition
On financial constraint Ukeje (1991), stressed on the need for the government to finance educational section, Accounting education needs more financial support more than other subjects in the school; if Accounting education subject is not supported financially it totally impedes its acquisitions.
On organizational constraints Accounting knowledge are acquired in the computer training centers and not in school which attracts less attentions to the periods allocated for its lesson in the school. In schools Accounting education is not included in the school time table that is why Jude (2007), maintained that Accounting education is still limited in the federal colleges.impediments to the acquisition
Statement of the Problem
Accounting knowledge acquisition deals with the knowledge and ability to use Accounting and related technology efficiently with a range of skills covering levels from elementary use to programming and advanced problem solving. In Enugu North local Government Area, there are scarcity of Accounting education teaches, the people of the Area, sees Accounting knowledge acquisition as a game of learning Accounting education in an Accounting Centre and not in the school systems. There are problems associated with the acquisition of Accounting education in secondary schools, which are; inadequate provision of facilities, lack of trained personnel, financial constraints, and organizational constraints. It was on this ground that the researchers choose to write on the impediments to the acquisition of Accounting education by secondary school students in Enugu North Local Government Area, Enugu state.impediments to the acquisition
