Abstract
Technology Education is that aspect of education that gives its
recipients an opportunity to acquire practical skills as well as some basic
scientific knowledge. The purpose of this study was to assess Tertiary
Students’ Practical Metal Machining Skills in Borno and Yobe States. Two
research questions were answered and an experimental research design was
employed for the study. The Instrument used for data collection was the
adaption of Metal Machining Practice Performance Test (MMPPT). The population
of the study involved 21 NCE III (Technical) Metalwork Students. All the
institutions that offers NCE (Technical) programme which were duly accredited
by NCCE in Borno and Yobe states were involved. The MMPPT test instrument has a
reliability coefficient of 0.80 that is strong correlation. Mean rating and
percentage were used to answer the research questions. One hypothesis was
tested using T- Test at 0.05 level of significant which indicated that
practical skills performance of metalwork students on drilling machine
operations was significantly different from their performance on milling
machine operations as. Findings of the
study shows that NCE (Technical) Metalwork Students exhibited average
performance on drilling operations and below average performance on mounting
the work piece, mounting milling cutter and dividing head, milling process of
spur gear.
