description | Background: Educational school facilities are indispensable in the teaching and learning process because they enhance understanding, application, and retention of knowledge. Despite the importance of these educational facilities in increasing the performance of students, studies assessing their utilization are scarce. Objectives: The objective of the study was to assess the utilization of educational school facilities among students of a Nursing training institution in South East Nigeria.
Methods: The study was a cross-sectional, descriptive, non-experimental, questionnaire-based study. A stratified sampling technique was used to select 130 students from the first, second, and third years who participated in the study. Results: There was poor utilization of the demonstration room partly due to the poor equipment of the laboratory and the school policy of insisting that the student replace any damaged item. There was poor utilization of the computer laboratory for learning mostly due to the
non-availability of internet services. Conclusion: We recommend that government and non-governmental agencies join hands in re-equipping the educational facilities and provide the needed manpower to make the facilities suitable and conducive for students. |
