3. •Teaching is a unique and dynamic profession. As
the school is the mirror of the society and an agent
of social change, teaching becomes a process and
an instrument of nation building (Philip, 2014).
•In education, the classroom teacher is
accountable for the destiny of the nation
because there is a strong bond between his/her
instructional activities, the eventual outcome of
his/her instruction and the development or
otherwise of the nation.
