ABSTRACT
This had been an attempt to investigate the society’s current attitude towards women in science and technology based artisan jobs as a factor in mainstreaming girls into science and technology mathematics education. In carrying out this study, Questionnaire on Society’s Current Attitudes toward Women in Science and Technology Artisan Jobs was developed to collect necessary data. Data collected were analysed using simple percentage, mean, SD and T-test analytical tools. The results of the study show that people have negative attitude toward women in science and technology based artisan jobs; but the level of educational attainment and marital status do not influence the society’ attitude towards women in science and technology based artisan jobs. It is however, found that gender has a significant influence on society’s attitude towards women in science and technology based artisan jobs. It was recommended among others that government should organise special educational programmes, awareness and sensitization campaigns, seminars and conference at national, state and local government levels aimed at changing the negative attitude of the society towards women in science and technology based artisan jobs.
