Abstract:
Quality education through effective teaching is crucial in any school system. This paper assesses teachers’ and
students’ views about the use of integrated e-learning approach in the teaching of Business Studies in Kenyan
secondary schools. The study was undertaken in the selected E-schools in Kenya. Purposive sampling was used
to select the teachers and random sampling technique was used to select the students. A total of three Head
teachers, eight Business Studies teachers and 127 Business Studies students participated in the study.
Questionnaires and face to face interviews were used to collect data from the sample. Both descriptive and
inferential statistics were used to analyze the data gathered. Descriptive statistics included use of frequency
tables, percentages and mean scores. Inferential statistics involved Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The study
revealed that students perceive the integrated E-learning approach to be an important approach in their learning.
Students have positive attitude towards the integrated E-learning approach. Teachers too perceived the approach
to be superior to the conventional approach. The use of the E-learning approach demonstrated a great potential to
promote cognitive, affective and psychomotor skills. Basing on these findings, the researcher recommends that
the new integrated E-learning approach be implemented in the teaching of Business Studies in the Kenyan
secondary schools to enhance learner outcomes and enrolment in the subject.
