Innovative pedagogy integration in TVET: A case of blended learning approach

In view of the growing concern for adoption of innovative pedagogy by TVET teachers, effective integration of innovative teaching practices such as blended learning, e-learning, industry-based learning, etc. at secondary and tertiary level of education in Nigeria is considered essential given the disruptions caused by global Covid-19 pandemic. Studies have shown that the majority of TVET teachers are predominantly using traditional teaching approaches such as discussion, demonstration, textbook reading and field trips as against innovative teaching practices like industry-based learning, simulation, blended and flipped learning that promote learner-centeredness, active learning, self-paced or individualized learning, that can guarantee improved learner engagement and learning outcomes.
