Abstract

This study examines the continued relevance and importance of chalkboards and charts as instructional materials in modern classrooms, particularly for effective teaching in resource-constrained areas. Despite advancements in technology and the rise of computer-based instruction, these traditional tools remain indispensable, especially in rural settings where access to electricity and innovative teaching media is limited. A library-based research method was employed, reviewing the perspectives of educationists and technologists on the enduring utility of chalkboards and charts. Key findings highlight the advantages, disadvantages, and practical applications of these tools in classrooms, emphasizing their role as cost-effective alternatives during power outages or in underserved regions. Field observations in Gokana, Rivers State, Nigeria, revealed the persistent reliance on these materials due to infrastructural and financial challenges. The study concludes that chalkboards and charts remain critical for achieving learning objectives in rural education and recommends their continued use alongside efforts to integrate innovative teaching methods.

Abstract

The study investigated the role of management information systems in education (MIS) in the normal educational process. The study is library-based, therefore it focused mainly on the review of the key concepts under the following sub-headings: information, information systems, education, information management, and management information systems (MIS). The study also examined the components and resources of the information system and functions of management information systems in education, the role of management information systems in the process of education, and the requirements of management information systems in education. Furthermore, the study looked at the challenges of MIS in education, criteria for effective education management information systems, and the importance of management in the process of education. It also looked at information systems and the issue of manual versus computer-based MIS. The study concluded that MIS is the lifeblood of any educational institution because it’s a process of information sorting, acceptance, storage, utilisation management, and retrieval for the purpose of successful educational administration in any society. Therefore, it was recommended that both public and private schools should be encouraged to be committed to seeking organised information before taking decisions with regards to teaching, learning, and administration. Today’s educational managers should adopt a management information system in education to prevent being outdated with only marginally relevant facts rather than being presented with concrete and absolutely useful information. Finally, all the schools should adopt the computer-based management information system for a more competent academic outcome and to be in line with the world's best educational practices with regards to ICT.

A combination of semi-structured interviews and structured questionnaires was used to collect data. The questionnaires were analyzed with the help of Descriptive statistics (mean, median, mode, standard deviation) to summarize the data, and the inferential statistics (t-tests, ANOVA) will be applied to identify the significance of the differences in academic performance between students who have undergone CBT and those who have not. According to the findings, the following conclusion and recommendations were drawn The introduction of computer-based testing (CBT) in the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) and the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has brought a major change in the assessment environment of senior secondary school students in the Ozuzu Clan, Rivers State. The research finds that although there was resistance and technological obstacles at the beginning, the overall effects of CBT on the academic performance of students have been mostly positive. Students who adjusted to the new system showed better performance, which means that the introduction of technology in education can lead to better learning results. Schools ought to introduce extensive training to students and teachers to introduce them to CBT platforms. This will assist in alleviating the initial difficulties and enhance the overall performance and The government and educational authorities ought to invest in the required infrastructure, such as the availability of reliable internet and computer facilities, so that all students have equal chances to engage in CBT.
