Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of instructional plan delivery strategy on student learning in county secondary schools in Uasin Gishu County. This study utilized the teacher behavior continuum theory as espoused by Wolfgang and Glickman. The study was done in 21 county secondary schools. The study targeted 21 principals, 390 teachers and 8400 students in all the County Secondary schools in Uasin Gishu. All the 21 principals of the county schools were purposively included in the study. Simple random sampling was used to select 30 % (117) of the teachers in the schools where the study was done. Simple random sampling was used to select 205 students in the selected county secondary schools. The researcher used questionnaires and interview schedules to gather the relevant information under the area of the study. Data was analyzed using both quantitative and qualitative techniques. The findings indicated that teachers try to prepare lesson plans that cater for all the different needs of the students and that time distribution in lesson plan was done such that all the planned activities were delivered in class as planned. Further, the study established that less than half of the teachers were familiar with dramatization, schemes of work and demonstrations. The study established that, with the p value of 0.004, F-ratio of 4.084 and degrees of freedom of 3 and 146, there was a significant relationship between instructional plan delivery strategy and student learning in county secondary schools in Uasin Gishu County. It is expected that the findings of this study will provide a guide to educational stakeholders on the best classroom management strategy that influences student learning in Uasin Gishu county secondary schools. It is also hoped that the government through the ministry of Education (MOE) will gain insights on classroom management strategies. Further; this study will also benefit future scholars who would wish to conduct similar or related studies as a source of documented literature.
