The study sought to assess the influence of teaching skills and training methodology on the performance of learners with visual impairment in public primary schools in Narok West Sub-County, Kenya. The study analysed past theories related to the topic under the theoretical review that is Education Production Function (EPF) theory. The researcher used a descriptive research design to capture the information on the influence of teaching skills and training methodology. The findings indicated that teaching skills and training methodology influence the performance of learners with visual impairment in public primary schools in the Narok West Sub-County

Production research in education has been dominated by attempts to estimate the structural parameters of what has been called the education production function. These estimation attempts are viewed in this article as only one way the production function concept can be drawn upon to inform debates over education policy. After exploring what it means to posit the existence of the education production function, the article critically reviews past estimation efforts and gives examples of how the production function can be used as a source of insight to guide policy-relevant inquiries into education productivity.

Education Production

This paper estimates an education production function using data on the College Scholastic Ability Test score and high school characteristics from Seoul, Korea, where, on entering high school, students are randomly assigned to schools within each school district. We derive a school production function by aggregating the individuals' potential outcomes under the random assignment and no cohort effect assumption. We find that the school production function coefficients differ between districts and that the single-sex school effect estimate is much larger than that found in previous studies.

In education sector the direct estimates of worker productivity are available for the majority of the workforce. In recent years, educational economists examine productivity returns to work experience among teachers using predicted contributions to increase student test scores as a proxy for productivity. Teacher productivity in the labor economy is measured using the education production function model. An education production function is an application of the economic concept of a production function to the field of education. It relates various inputs affecting a student's learning (schools, families, peers, neighborhoods, etc.) to measured outputs including subsequent labor market success, college attendance, graduation rates, and, most frequently, standardized test scores. This study was aimed to determine the effect of wages, level of education and training toward honorary teachers’ productivity in Palembang. The data used in this study were primary data in the form of questionnaires which were asked directly to the respondents with a total number of 310 respondents from 28 private vocational schools in Palembang. Survey was used as the data collection method with proportional random sampling withdrawal. Data analysis method used in this study was multiple regression with OLS method. The results of this study indicated that wages, education and training affect the productivity of private vocational school teachers in Palembang. The coefficient of determination for the variable of wages, education and training was 65%. It showed that wages, education, and training had 65% effects on productivity and the remaining 35% was influenced by other variables. As the research results show, the productivity was very important in measuring the success of an employee. It can be seen by paying attention to the level of wages, education and training participated by teachers in a school institution, especially in Palembang.
