Abstract

The most echoed voice in the contemporary academic parlance is lack of competency in the graduates of higher institution of learning. The majority of the graduates of present day tertiary institutions find it very difficult to make correct use of present continuous tense in their communicative moves. This culminated in bitter complain from the general public over the low proficiency in the learning output of the graduates. This paper investigates the “graduands daily interactions. The use of present continuous tense was selected and comparative analysis of their achievements when they were introduced to Dalton method and the demonstration teaching pedagogy was made. The study discovered that demonstration teaching strategy seems to be more learned-centre and therefore excel over the Dalton method. Thirty six (36) students were selected as sample and data collected through test items and the learners were assessed by the means of piagitian behaviorist cognitive grading system.
