ABSTRACT
This research is an ex-post facto aimed at establishing relationship between errors and some factors as a causative agent. The researcher looked at determinants of errors in written Igbo composition. The researcher work specifically went into identifying, analyzing and describing the mechanical and expressional errors primary school pupils make in written Igbo composition. The result of the study may direct the attention of Igbo teachers to the specific errors identified, thereby saving time on the teaching task and ensuring a greater level of understanding of the concept.
The data collected with written work was analysed with chi-square (x2) test statistics for the hypotheses that was tested.
a. There was no significant difference in the kind of error made in written Igbo composition
b. Rural pupils made more errors than the urban pupils
c. Male pupils made more errors than their female counterparts.
Suggestions were made with regards to what can be done to minimize the pupils errors in their written work. The findings shows that the types of errors committed by pupils in written Igbo composition are
1. Mechanical and expressional errors.
2. Rural primary pupils commit more mechanical errors than their urban counterparts.
3. Males recorded more mechanical errors than females.
The educational implications of the study were presented. The researcher based on the findings recommended that
(a) use error analysis as a teaching procedure
(b) Seminars, workshops, conferences should be organized for the pupils at classroom level to improve the learning and use of Igbo language.
(c) Use of teaching aids in classroom instruction
(d) Devotion of time to teaching Igbo mechanics
(e) Development of positive attitude to the study of Igbo language by parents among others. All the above should be taken cognizance of to avoid the occurrence of the problems as investigated.
