Kawishe, Titus Kibarabara Learner centred methods Availability of resources and facilities Instructional resources and facilities A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Education (MA-ED) of the Mzumbe University. The main purpose of this study was to find out implementation of LCMs within the constraints of shortage of instructional resources and facilities. Specific areas covered were; First to identify reasons for shortage of instructional resources and facilities in implementing LCMs. Second to identify strategies for implementing LCMs in the context of shortage of instructional resources and facilities. Third to examine whether strategies of implementing LCMs help to promote performance despite of shortage of resources and facilities. Fourth to find out views of teachers towards challenges of implementing LCMs within shortage of instructional resources and facilities. This study used multiple case study research design, qualitative in nature and aimed to comprise of 103 respondents selected randomly and purposely. Data were collected through interviews, documentary review, focus group discussions and observations. Data from interviews and documentary review were analysed by content analysis and that from observations were analysed through drawing meaning by inference. This study reveals that strategies teachers used to implement LCMs within the shortage of instructional resources and facilities are functioning to improve students‟ performance. The findings shows students increase the morale of studying and confidence hence raises their ability to grasp the intended knowledge. The findings also disclose that, the major cause of shortage of instructional resources and facilities is lack of funds for buying gears for LCMs like books, computers, projectors, and printers. Moreover, it was revealed that teachers view LCMs as the best methods, however, close supervision of curriculum is advised. Also teachers should be trained to enable them to apply LCMs in an effective way and increase of funds for the schools was advised. It is recommended that it is worthwhile to ensure that all key educational stakeholders play their roles, without which good teaching methods will always remain on papers. Teaching using LCMs should be achieved in its implementation. The study concludes that the application of LCMs in secondary schools is apparent and important, but there should be a serious improvements for better results from these methods.
