Abstract

The purpose of the study was aimed at finding out the role of laboratory experience in the teaching of clothing and textiles in secondary schools in Delta State and its impact in entrepreneurship skills. Four Research questions were formulated to guide the study. The population was all students studying clothing and textile in Delta state. All the 264 respondents were used for the study. Questionnaire was the instrument used for data collection and data were analyzed with mean and standard deviation. Finding showed that identify the laboratory roles in the teaching of Clothing and textiles to include; to develop practical competence, identify tools and materials, demonstrate proper usage of tools and equipment, and identify students’ strengths and weaknesses. Also its effectiveness helps students in problem solving, increase interest, strengthen their ability for critical thinking and solve problems, thereby boost entrepreneurship skills through teamwork, creativity and innovation for self reliance. Conclusions and recommendations were made; that to prepare students for a better career future, the method of teaching adopted by the teacher plays an important role in continuity and advancement of clothing and textile as a course of study. Government should provide modern laboratories and equipment and subsidize practical expenses for the student in schools.

Abstract

Background: Composite flours from indigenous crops offer a pathway to healthier snacks, dietary diversity, and reduced reliance on imported wheat, but must meet consumer sensory expectations to be viable. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the sensory properties of cakes made from composite flour blends of wheat, cocoyam, plantain, and bambara nut, and to identify formulations that balance acceptability with functional nutrition potential. Method: An experimental research design was adopted, which allowed for the systematic production and evaluation of cakes prepared from composite flour blends of wheat, cocoyam, plantain, and bambara nut. Result: The sensory evaluation results showed variations in judges’ ratings of cakes made from wheat, cocoyam, plantain, and bambara nut blends compared with 100% wheat cake. Conclusion: These findings support food diversification, partial substitution of imported wheat, and household-scale production through simple SOPs and quality control within the framework of Sustainable Development through Household Economic Units, thereby strengthening local supply chains and micro-business opportunities. Contribution: This study provides empirical evidence that cakes with acceptable sensory quality and nutritional enrichment can promote Sustainable Development through Household Economic Units through simple household-scale SOPs, basic quality control, utilization of local crops, partial wheat substitution, and gender-responsive microenterprises.
