Sexuality education remains a critical yet often neglected aspect of youth development and public health in Nigeria. The country's socio-cultural context, conservative values, and religious beliefs have created barriers to the implementation of comprehensive sexuality education programmes. This paper seeks to address the gap in knowledge by examining the specific challenges that hinder the advancement of comprehensive sexuality education and by proposing evidence-based advocacy strategies to overcome these barriers. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative research methods to provide a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. Qualitative methods such as interviews, focus group discussions, and content analysis of relevant documents are used to explore the challenges and perceptions surrounding sexuality education in Nigeria. Additionally, quantitative surveys are administered to gather data on public attitudes towards sexuality education, perceived benefits, and barriers to implementation. The paper contributes to the ongoing dialogue on sexuality education in Nigeria by providing a nuanced understanding of the challenges and opportunities for advocacy. The proposed strategies will offer evidence-based solutions for promoting comprehensive sexuality education that is sensitive to Nigeria's cultural context. Ultimately, the research aims to inform policymakers, educators, and advocacy organizations about effective ways to advance comprehensive sexuality education for the holistic development and improved sexual health outcomes of Nigerian youth.","PeriodicalId":46054,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Special Education","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135487297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, they have all been streamlined into two styles: didactic and interactive styles of teaching and upon these that the assessment of this study was based. This study assessed styles of teaching Building structure courses to Architecture students in Southwestern Nigerian public Universities, with a view to improving the performance of the students in these courses. Quantitative research approach was adopted and employed descriptive survey. The principal survey techniques used was questionnaire. Five public universities approved by the National Universities Commission and Architects Registration Council of Nigeria were purposively sampled. A total of 702 questionnaires were administered to all the pre-final and final year students in the Department of Architecture of the sampled universities, while only 541 questionnaires were adequately completed and considered fit for analysis. Cross tabulation with chi-square was used to summarize the data. The study revealed that the teachers were using both didactic and interactive teaching styles. The conclusion here was that the teachers were not using interactive teaching styles fully in teaching the courses to students which led to poor performance of students in the courses. Therefore, the study recommended that strong priority should be given to the quality of teaching by using interactive teaching style only in the teaching of Building structures.","PeriodicalId":46054,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Special Education","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135486794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
