Abstract

Pre-service teacher educators in Nigeria Colleges of Education constituted the population while the target population was the Pre-service teacher educators in North-Central Nigeria. Three Federal and three state colleges were sampled for the study using stratified sampling techniques out of a total of six Federal and six State colleges of education in the geopolitical region. A total population of 333 pre-service teacher educators was sampled using simple random sampling techniques out of 2,411 respondents. A researcher's designed questionnaire with content validity of 0.74 through the use of percentage-difference coefficient of correlation as well as a reliability index of 0.71 through the use of test-retest method was used to elicit the needed data from the respondents. The mean score was the statistical tool used to answer the research questions raised in the study. Findings from the study revealed that the integrative approach was considered the best option for mainstreaming the contents of peace education. More so, the study recommended teaching methods and strategies such as inquiry; expository, activity, and discussion with the different strategies to be used to impart peace education to pre-service teachers.
