Abstract

This study investigates the extent to which Business Studies teachers in Botswana's secondary schools improvise instru ctional materials by using resou rces from the commu nity. Data were gathered by means of structured interviews, class observations, the analysis of teachers' teaching plans and related docu ments. The findings revealed that Business Studies teachers mostly rely on instructional materials supplied by the school and do not put locally available business community resources, which are abundant and can be sourced with minimum expenditure of money and energy, to maximum use. The study concluded by recommending that teachers should be more resourceful and attempt to incorporate improvisation into their schemes of work and lesson plans to foster creativity and financial independence from the school.
