Abstract

The study adopted literature review to assess teaching effectiveness and students'
academic achievement in Vocational and Technical Education (VTE) based
programmes in Nigeria. It discouraged stipulating a specific period for evaluation.
The paper also discussed the techniques for developing evaluation, instruments
and techniques for reporting evaluation findings and stressed that evaluation in
vocational and technical subjects should be a continuous process. Applying caution
on the choice and use of evaluation procedures was therefore plausible.
