Secondary school teachers’ perception of the Delta State Government COVID-19 lockdown educational broadcasts

This study looks into teachers' perceptions of the Delta State Government's Covid-19 educational broadcast. The cross-sectional research design was utilized in conjunction with the survey method. Using Likert scale questions, 150 teachers from Delta State's three senatorial districts were polled. The data was analyzed using simple percentages, and the mean scores were used to determine the suitability of the results. Based on the media perception theory, the study sought to determine secondary school teachers' perceptions of government educational broadcasts during the Covid-19 lockdown, and it discovered that instructors in Delta State are not sufficiently exposed to educational broadcasting. The study concludes that, despite finding the content and quality of the Covid 19 broadcasts to be appropriate for learning, secondary school teachers in Delta State do not use educational broadcasting as a teaching method. The study suggests that secondary school teachers be regularly exposed to educational broadcasting and receive ongoing training on how to use it as an alternative to classroom instruction.
