Background of the study
Technology advancements have pushed instructional resources, particularly projected and electronic materials, to the forefront as the most radical means of globalization and social development, favorably affecting the classroom teaching-learning scenario. The availability of instructional material in teaching and learning of students has made both teaching and learning highly enjoyable for basic science teachers. According to Bamidele, (2020), educational experiences that include the student actively participating in tangible instances are kept longer than abstract experiences. Many writers have written on the use of instructional materials in teaching fundamental science and other related courses in order to enhance teaching for intended social and behavioural change. Ekubue (2018) stressed in his works of these writers that the use of instructional materials is a sine qua non in influencing the behaviour of learners in any subject, particularly fundamental science. According to the researcher, fundamental scientific teaching and learning cannot be properly achieved without the use of instructional materials. According to Omoku (2015), the performance of Nigerian pupils in ordinary level fundamental science is often bad. The author ascribed this to several variables of teaching strategy, with teaching method itself being seen as a significant component. Onykwelu (2017) identified elements influencing students' academic achievement in fundamental science learning. Poor laboratory facilities, failure of basic science teachers to adequately communicate ideas to student, and an insufficient quantity of learning facilities in schools in Enugu state's Igbo Etiti local government area are among the issues. Basic science cannot be completely taught without the availability of instructional resources; teaching basic science without learning materials will almost likely result in poor course achievement.
