Introduction
1.1 Background of Study
Improvisation are those things that enables students to have mental picture of what has been taught and to retain the message in their memory for a very long time e.g. Radio, Television, Charts, Micro-Projectors, Still Pictures, Specimen e.t.c. It can be referred to as those things that the classroom teacher uses to impact knowledge to pupils in the classroom in order to achieve his objectives.
According to Ogunmola, (2002) cited that improvisation are those visual or audio visual materials which facilitate the assimilation of organization. Infact, for effective teaching and learning to take place, importance of improvisation are can exist without adequate use of physics education programme can exist with adequate use of integrated equipments examples of such equipment are integrated, monitor, keyboard, typewriter, mouse, scanner, printer, duplicating machine e.t.c these science equipments are indispensable to a good physics teaching and training and learning.
It is no gain saying that interest in learning physicss increasing in Nigeria. Each local government area is trying t o improve on the production of technology. This is justify for physics has totally assured great importance interest role of national power and productivity. According to the new trend of physics, teaching has as shown a radical departure of traditional expository mode, in favour of practical and inquiry method to the inclusion of problems solving and active involvement of people in the open minded fielding practical exercise.
In view of this, it can therefore be assumed that unique facilities and equipment are available in Technical colleges. For practical works pupils will not derive much from the attempt to learn physics. It has been stressed by Howard (2003) when he said what we learn is what we do” doing what we learn in physics requires the use of practical work. We also have the bear in mind that at least some of the pupils would or may need to become professionally integrated list. Such pupils need the equipment to be able to develop necessary practical skills. Beside, the basic sources of physics experience is of course of direct contact which objects and events it’s in nature outside the classroom
Specifically some specific educational reasons to have equipment for teaching was summarized by Balogun (2000) as follows
- It enables the learners to develop functional and manipulating skills
- It enables the learner to develop problem solving skill and scientific attitude
The acquisition of these skills is the contribution of physics education in the general preparation of the youth with emphasis on activities based on child centered learning coupled with pupils enrolment into school in the face of corresponding decline economy. It is against the background that we can appreciate the significance of the question “the important role of physics equipment in Technical colleges
1.2 Statement of Problems
There are many problems and obstacles which hinder the effective teaching of physics in our Technical colleges.
Despite the importance attached to the subject there is no technical colleges of Kano state where the range of resources available for the teaching of physics can be described as being in anyway adequate
This arises as a result of inability of these materials especially now, due to foreign exchange restriction and large populations of Technical colleges pupils.
The aspects of this problems will be dealt with in this study which has the survey of material resources required by the teaching of physics. In technical colleges of Kano state.The following specific questions can be asked does teachers in Technical colleges improvised or substitute for importance of improvisation which are not easily obtained
Are there enough materials resources for integrated teaching in Technical colleges? What are the materials that can be improved?
1.3 Objective of the Study
The main purpose of the study is an analysis of facility improvisation in the effective teaching of physics in technical colleges of Kano state.The study will examine
- The availability of improvised facilities in our schools
- Whatever and how physics teacher in Technical colleges improvise for materials which are not easily obtainable
- The type of materials that can be improvised
1.4 Research Question
- To what extent is the importance of improvisation in the teaching of physics in Technical colleges
- Do teachers in Technical colleges improvise for importance materials which are not easily obtained.
- Do students in Technical colleges easily remember topic taught with improvised materials than those topics taught without improvised materials?
- Do students in Technical colleges find it easy to put into practice what they are taught with the use of improvised material?
- Does the importance of improvisation led to better performance of students in Technical colleges.
1.5 Significance of the Study
It is hope that the findings of this study will be beneficial to educational agencies in Kano State. It should be of great important to educational administrates in the distribution of resources to schools

It expected that schools should try to make proper provision for them and also were parents, teachers should make proper use of them in carrying out their responsibility or professional skills
Again schools, teacher, parents and voluntary organization should provide assistance to the government by making provisions for importance of improvisation to schools for the proper and effective teaching of physics in Technical colleges.
5.4 Recommendation
Based on the result of the findings of the study the following recommendation and presented.
Since importance of improvisation plays a vital and a very significant role in the teaching of physics in Technical colleges should bear on themselves the responsibility to provide physics equipment. Equipment such as integrated materials, integrated laboratory were teachers and students can have easy access to them and also expose themselves to them qualified teachers should be employed by schools to help manage to equipment effectively
Employed teachers should be constantly sent on services and training to gain more knowledge and also have the ability to exposes to new technology developments. The employed teachers and integrated managers also should try as much as possible to event new teaching and during presentation of integrated lessons
The teaching service board should employ teachers who can effectively and efficiently use the available importance of improvisation to influence effective communication in the class government should also provide importance of improvisation to schools for effective teaching. Teaching seminars for teachers from time to time should also be encourage to help develop their teaching skills for proper presentation of their integrated lessons
