| dc.description.abstract | Different researchers in their studies identified several areas of concern for history educators regarding inadequate and unsatisfactory educational provisions that tend to inhibit instruction and learning history in secondary schools. In view of this, such kind of study with regard to the problems of history teaching and learning in our secondary schools is highly needed. The study was conducted to investigate the teaching and learning of history with respect to the effects of some of the teacher and school related variables. Attempts were also made to examine classroom-teaching competences. To this end, a descriptive survey research technique was employed. The descriptive survey research attempted to describe the present status of history teaching and learning, with particular reference to the secondary schools of Hadiya zone- SNNPRS. The findings of this descriptive study are reflective of the situation in these schools . The survey derived data from all the six secondary schools of the study area. Within these schools, all history teachers (34 in number) and thirty-six students were selected as sources of information using available and purposive sampling techniques respectively. Questionnaires, classroom observation, interviews, and documents were the instruments of data collection. The data gathered through these instruments were analyzed USIng percentages, mean scores and descriptive statements. The present study has found out a number of interrelated factors, which hinder the teaching, and learning of history.
