Fisheries Paper 2 Alt B., WASSCE (SC), 2018

Weakness and Remedies

 

The following weaknesses were noticed in the candidates’ responses.
Candidates

  • did not show good understanding of capture fisheries;
  • wrote spellings of technical words wrongly;
  • showed poor knowledge of materials used in culturing fisheries.

The following remedies were however suggested:

  • Candidates should be exposed to capture fisheries.
  • Field trips should be organized for candidates to enhance their experiences.
  • Qualified teachers should be recruited to teach the subject.
  • Good textbooks should be recommended to the candidates since the subject is relatively new.
  • Candidates should be familiar with technical terms in fisheries and be able to write their spellings correctly.
Schools should provide instructional materials to teach the subject to facilitate effective teaching and pleasant learning.
