Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The integration of digital technologies in education has revolutionized teaching and learning practices in various disciplines, including agricultural science. This thesis investigates the potential benefits and challenges of utilizing digital technologies to enhance agricultural science education in secondary schools. The study explores how digital tools and resources can be effectively incorporated into the agricultural science curriculum to improve student engagement, knowledge retention, and practical skills development. The introductory chapter provides an overview of the research background, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and definition of key terms. The literature review chapter critically examines existing studies on the use of digital technologies in education, focusing on ten key themes related to agricultural science education. These themes include the impact of digital tools on student learning outcomes, teacher professional development, curriculum design, assessment strategies, and technological infrastructure in schools. The research methodology chapter outlines the research design, sampling techniques, data collection methods, and data analysis procedures employed in the study. It also discusses ethical considerations and limitations of the research process. The findings chapter presents a detailed analysis and discussion of the data collected, highlighting the key outcomes, trends, and insights related to the utilization of digital technologies in agricultural science education. The conclusion and summary chapter draw conclusions based on the research findings, addressing the research objectives and implications for practice. The study underscores the importance of integrating digital technologies into agricultural science education to enhance student learning experiences and prepare them for future careers in the agriculture industry. Recommendations for policymakers, educators, and curriculum developers are provided to support the effective implementation of digital technologies in secondary school agricultural science programs. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to the growing body of literature on digital technology integration in education and offers practical insights for improving agricultural science education in secondary schools. By leveraging digital tools and resources, educators can create engaging and interactive learning environments that foster student creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills in the field of agriculture.
