Background to the study
This research work deals with the
effects or impact of educational facilities on the teaching and learning of
Economics in secondary schools.  This
work will state and explain the importance of educational facilities in the
teaching and learning of Economics in secondary schools.
The use of educational facilities in
Economics as a subject has been discovered to facilitate effective teaching and

capabilities.
It is very important to use
educational facilities during the teaching and learning of Economics to acquire
more knowledge on what the teacher is teaching that facilitate learning.  It makes learning easier and convenient for
the teachers and learners.  It is also
known as self – supportive devices in which can be use by the teacher to
present a body of necessary information in teaching and learning process.
Akanbi (1988), observes that the
unique place of educational facilities has traditionally been grossly
misunderstood and correspondingly neglected. 
Therefore, this research work will deal with educational facilities
available in teaching and learning process and how the teacher can make
effective use of them to achieve educational objective.
The fact is that without educational facilities,
the teachers cannot have effective teaching and the Nigeria government has been
concerned about it.  That educational
facilities should be available in the school in order to be applied to teaching
and learning activities.  Therefore, this
work will also deal with application of teaching aids and educational activity
especially is Economics as a subject.
