Abstract
The main goal of this research was to investigate how curriculum management
strategies affected the successful implementation of Universal Basic Education
(UBE). A total of 712 participants were chosen using proportional random
sampling from the sampled primary and junior secondary schools in North-west,
Nigeria. Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient and linear regression
analysis were used to test the hypotheses. The findings of the study
demonstrated that students’ mastery goals, effective classroom instruction, and
evaluation all helped to improve the effectiveness of UBE implementation. Thus,
it was recommended that school managers should encourage students'
mastery goals so as to help learners to be better engaged in the learning
process. Likewise, school managers should strive to create effective classroom
instruction to help in engaging learners with concepts and processes of learning.
Furthermore, evaluation of curriculum and learners’ activities should be done
frequently in order to determine learners’ competence before, during, and after
instruction toward effective implementation of the curriculum. The results
showed that the curriculum management strategies had a significant impact on
the effective implementation of UBE.
