studies teachers to implement the curriculum;send social studies teachers to

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background to the Study
Social Studies
has social, political,
economic and technological relevance to
national
development. This is because its content is organized around social and
environmental issues affecting man‟s existence, and his capability to manage,
and preserve the environment for sustainable development (Mezieobi, Akpochafo
and Mezieobi, 2010). Following the decision of the Federal Government of
Nigeria to use education to empower the people and achieve the objectives of
poverty eradication, job creation and wealth generation, it becomes imperative
that the conventional methods of teaching social studies where are passive need
be changed (Onuoha, 2011).
Vision 2010
is indeed an ambitious programme. It is a political proclamation of the
Nigerian Government. The expectation is that by the year 2020, Nigeria will be
counted among the top twenty (20) economies of the world alongside America,
Japan, Russia and other super power of the world (Igbokwe, 2010). But to the
researcher‟s view, how is the educational policy and its curriculum of social
studies working towards achieving this vision of Nigeria becoming the top
twenty (20) the world economies. Achieving the objectives of vision 20:2020 in
JSS in Nigeria can only be realized through qualitative social studies instruction
that is highly directed at radical socio-economic, political and scientific
transformation of the nation. The innovation should aim at functional manpower
who are imbued with positive values, attitudes and skills, which can further
contribute to the development of Nigeria‟s economy, resource management and
reconstruction of its physical environment to facilitate sustainable
development, which is ideal for harmonious social living, interdependence and
pace.
