The study adopted the Pretest, Posttest, Quasi-experimental research design to determine the effect of edutainment on College of Education students’ interest and learning retention in Technical education. Three research questions and two hypotheses were formulated and tested at .05 level of significance. The subjects of the study were 2016/2017 session, NCE II students of Colleges of Education in North central states of Nigeria. The population of this study comprised of the entire 540 students of NCE II from where 225 students were sampled. The instruments used for data collection were: technical education students’ interest inventory (TESII), technical education students’ learning retention (TESLR) tests and a structured questionnaire. The reliability of the instruments was established using the Pearson product moment correlation coefficient formula and was found to be 0.84. Similarly, the Kuder-Richardson (KR20) formula was used to determine the internal consistency of the instruments and the result obtained was 0.75. The study used mean and standard deviation statistics to answer the research questions while the hypotheses formulated for the study was tested using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) at 0.05 level of significance. Findings from the study revealed among others that the use of edutainment platform was effective in enhancing students’ interest and learning retention. The study among others recommends for the provision of high speed internet connectivity and services within the college premises.
