CHAPTER ONE
1.0INTRODUCTION
1.0 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
It is a
common problem that most of our secondary school leavers do not possess the
ability and skills to reason well, they do not respect the dignity of labour,
all they live and hope for IS to pass their final examinations through cheat
and "expo 419". They like the school administrators target only the
end result. They are not interested in the means by which they achieve those
results. The values and norms of honest living have eluded those children from
the beginning and so, how would they be expected to live honest lives after
they had been schooled and graduated in dishonesty. That is why in our
political lives, we exhibit bitterness, rancor and turgery. The school
curriculum is prepared and delivered in such a way that the children are not
invited to think. They are expected to reproduce exactly what the teachers had given
them thereby encouraging laziness among the pupils/ students hence there is
acute lack of creativity.
1.2 POINT OF INQUIRY/STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The
environment which a child grew has much influence in his studies at school.
Many students come from background not good enough to promote students in their
studies. Some factors are caused by low income earning of parents while some
are caused by poor academic background of parents and siblings. The chief
factor is that there is absence of reasoning in some homes which adversely
affects learning
Anih, S.
(2004: 109) states that negligence of reason results in the loss of everything.
He emphasized the need for redesigning of Nigeria's education philosophy. We
need an authentic philosophy of education to solve national problems in
Nigeria.

education is given its rightful place in the education process.
