Abstract

The paper discusses the current condition of physics education in Nigerian secondary schools, and the challenges of teaching and learning physics in the country towards enhancing development in technology and further highlights some of the prospects of physics teacher education reform for Nigerian technology development. It also discusses the way forward to the current challenges for physics teacher education in Nigeria. Based on this, recommendations were made on the key reform issues; the use of innovative teaching methods in teaching Physics by physics teachers should be encouraged, government and the stakeholders should provide instructional material, training and retraining of physics teachers on information and communication technology, (ICT), government should ensure proper monitoring and implementation of the education reform, all level of education should be provided with adequate qualified physics teachers that would transform physics teacher education program and teaching/learning of physics towards refocusing physics education for technological development of Nigeria.

调整物理教学重点，促进尼日利亚的技术发展

本文讨论了尼日利亚中学物理教育的现状，以及该国物理教学在促进技术发展方面所面临的挑战，并进一步强调了物理教师教育改革对尼日利亚技术发展的一些前景。报告还讨论了尼日利亚物理师范教育如何应对当前的挑战。在此基础上，对关键的改革问题提出了建议：应鼓励物理教师在物理教学中使用创新的教学方法，政府和利益相关者应提供教学材料，对物理教师进行信息和通信技术（ICT）方面的培训和再培训，政府应确保对教育改革进行适当的监督和实施，应为各级教育提供足够的合格物理教师，以改变物理教师教育计划和物理教学，从而调整物理教育的重点，促进尼日利亚的技术发展。
