CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

Background to the Study

Education is considered as an agent of human processing where human beings like raw-materials, are processed through schooling and converted to finished product as a result of good teaching by the professional teachers. However, Carter (1995) described the education as the aggregate or totality of all the process by means of which a personal develops ability, attitude, skills and forms of behavior that are of positive values in the society in which he/she live. Consequently, a professional teaching is related with inculcating a body of knowledge and skills, and development of desirable attitudes. In fact those who engage in teaching career should be seen to have at least a distinct quality and skills, either as a result of formal and informal processes of the selection or more especially due to their professional training, Oyeleye and Soremi (1985), Good (1995), Niajasan (1995), Salawu (1991:6).
