Abstract:
As a result of rapid globalisation, there have been some fundamental changes
in education due to the rapid changes in knowledge, concepts, technology,
and philosophy. COVID-19 has had devastating effects on the education
sector. In Nigerian schools, supervisors, teachers, and students have always
been required to interact face-to-face before this pandemic. This has led to
using electronic facilities to carry out the instruction. Since supervision of
instruction plays a vital role in the effective learning outcome. The study,
therefore, seeks to investigate the availability and utilisation of electronic
supervision of the instruction facilities after the COVID-19 era. A survey
design was used to describe the state of e-supervision of instruction using a
random sampling technique to select 226 participants from private secondary
schools in Education District III, Lagos State. Descriptive and inferential
statistics were adopted to establish the availability and utilisation of e-
supervision instructions in the post-COVID-19 era. Most of the samples
studied (principals, vice-principals, and teachers) demonstrated high levels of
access to various tools (both synchronous and asynchronous) used for e-
supervision. Effective supervision of teaching and learning will certainly
occur in schools with the availability of these tools since COVID-19 has
taught teachers how to continue their professions without being hindered by
the surge in technology.
