Abstract
This study was specially designed and conducted to find out the relationship
between pedagogy, Andragogy and holistic development of visually impaired learners.
The study was guided by four specific objectives which included determining the profile
of the respondents, to identify the socio-demographic characteristics in terms of age,
gender, severity of the disability level (class) length in school and service, to determine
the extension of Pedagogical and Andragogical strategies for visually impaired learners,
to determine the level of holistic development of the respondents and to establish if
there is a significant relationship between the extension of pedagogical, Androgogical,
strategies and the level of holistic development. The study used correlation survey research design and exposed facts, with a sample of one hundred respondents. The study found out that the level of Pedagogical and Andragogical strategies necessary for holistic development were lacking and the level of holistic development was low as well as transitional rates. The study found out that there is a strong relationship between appropriate pedagogical, andragogical
strategies and holistic development. The study recommended that the government should avail crucial resources that are adapted for educational purposes so as to mitigate the dismal holistic development.
