Background to the Study
In Nigeria, the primary role of Colleges of Education is to train teachers who will after completion, be awarded the minimum teaching qualification of Nigeria Certificate of Education (NCE). This certificate qualifies one to teach in Junior Secondary and Technical Colleges and the programme has duration of three years. These teachers‟ Institutions were formally known as Advanced Teachers Colleges and were affiliated to different Universities in Nigeria. They were later transformed into Colleges of Education under the supervision of one umbrella body known as National Commission for Colleges of Education (NCCE) established in 1989. There are eighty two (82) Colleges of Education in Nigeria classified according to their ownership; hence we have twenty (22) Federal, forty six (46) State and fourteen (14) Private Colleges of Education. The State‟s Colleges of Education are established and founded by their respective State governors, (NCCE, 2012). Contextually, resources are tools for up-lifting the standards of education and the level of compliance in implementing the resource for teaching and learning process is decided at level and the type of education to be provided. For instance, resources can be natural, human and material. The natural resources are those resources that come from nature such as air, water, iron, oil, etc. The human resources are set of individuals who occupy certain positions in an organization, be it in the business or public sector domain. The material resources are assets that are in form of material possessions and they can be sourced or supplied for achieving organizational or societal objectives. Resources availability is a description of facts that resources are available and ready for use. The availability of resources in teaching and learning processes provide 2 interesting and compelling platforms for learners, to acquire basic skills. For example, National Commission for Colleges of Education (NCCE) identified resources required for Business Education to include physical facilities, such as classroom that will take thirty (30) students conveniently, laboratories/studios at least one (1) each of the typing pool, shorthand laboratory, model office and information technology room, among others. Staff/student ratio for skill subject like shorthand, typewriting and accounting should be 1:20 and 1:30 for the other subjects, while equipments, such as typewritersmanual thirty (30) of various make and types, Computer at the ratio of one (1) computer to three (3) students. While utilization of resources is the extent to which resources are optimally utilized. Utilization of resource in teaching and learning promote teaching and motivates learners to learn better, easy and faster. It also lead to motivation, informing, instructive and presented the subject matter more attractive. The desire to assess resources for teaching and learning Business Education stems from the fact that resources occupy significant position in the teaching and learning of Business Education. Thus, the smooth running of Business Education largely depends on the availability and utilization of resources such as: personnel, equipment and physical facilities among others in teaching and learning process. Business Education is one of the types that require available and relevant resources for effective teaching and learning; hence resources are requisite in the teaching and learning of Business Education.
