Abstract

Implementing inclusive Agricultural Education effectively in this digital era in Nigerian universities has been a serious challenge to lecturers in Nigeria. In most cases, they change the learners’ learning styles which are more digitally inclined to fit their teaching method instead of adapting an innovative teaching method to suit the learners for effective learning. Since there was no adapted model that could help the lecturers of Agricultural Education to achieve inclusiveness, the learners struggle to adapt to the teaching method first rather than learning the content of the course. To avoid such waste of time, energy, effort, and most importantly, frustration for students, this theoretical paper, therefore, identified the gap existing in the use of ASSURE Model in inclusive agricultural education in Nigerian universities. It explored the immeasurable steps involved in the use of ASSURE Model for effective teaching and learning of inclusive agricultural education in Nigerian universities. The review also summarizes the constituents of ASSURE Model for better assimilation and planning of subsequent instruction in inclusive agricultural education in Nigerian universities. It also reported the features, practices, and imperativeness of the use of ASSURE Model in inclusive agricultural education in Nigerian universities for improved learning.
