Abstract

This study investigated the correlation between excessive exposure to digital media in the formative years and how children respond to the schooling environment in Nigeria. This study employed the correlational research design. The study sample involved 150 primary school pupils. The instrument for the study “digital media usage, types of digital media, and response” was used for data collection. The research questions were answered with Pearson product moment correlation, while hypotheses were tested with linear regression. The study revealed a statistically significant negative correlation between digital media use and how children respond to the schooling environment in Nigeria, as well as a positive relationship between the type of digital media use and how children respond to the schooling environment in Nigeria. Founded on the findings, the study recommended that parents should encourage a healthy mix of activities. Limit screen time, designate media-free zones, and promote activities like reading, outdoor play, and face-to-face socializing; schools should integrate technology strategically to enhance classroom learning. Explore educational apps, games, and online resources suitable to different learning styles. The government should consider developing age-appropriate guidelines for healthy digital media utilization in partnership with educators, parents, and health professionals.

Abstract

The study looked at how conceptual modelling (CM) and conceptual blending (CB) affected students’ achievement in chemistry. This study employed a quasi-experimental design. In this study, 274 seniors secondary (SSII) chemistry students from six coeducational secondary schools in the state were randomly selected using simple random sampling. The information was gathered using the chemistry achievement test (CAT). It was used for pre-test and post-test to evaluate students’ achievement in chemistry. All groups received these tests before and after a six-week course of therapy. The mean/average scores of the 3 groups on the pre-test and post-test were compared using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) of the CAT data. The study discovered that CM, as opposed to CB, had a significantly bigger effect on students’ achievement in chemistry. Chemistry achievement was significantly higher with CB than with the lecture approach (LA). According to the study, when compared to the LA, CM and CB are more effective teaching strategies for raising students’ achievement in chemistry. Furthermore, it was discovered that CM was the most successful approach. It was suggested, among other things, that chemistry instructors incorporate CM into their chemical lessons.

Abstract

The study dwelt on the analysis of implementation challenges of universal basic education (UBE) in public primary schools. The expose facto research design and survey method were adopted to carry out the study. The multistage sampling technique was adopted to select 414 teachers. A self-constructed instrument was used to conduct the study. The instrument’s reliability was tested using Cronbach alpha statistics, which gave a 0.75 alpha coefficient and was deemed reliable. The researcher and six research assistants administered the instrument. Descriptive statistics was used to analyze the research questions, while the hypothesis was tested with t-test statistics. The findings revealed many challenges facing the implementation of UBE in Delta state, which emanate primarily from parents and the government. It was recommended that the government provide adequate funds to provide a conducive environment for learning in school; the government should ensure that parents send their children to school by giving UBE more publicity, enlightening parents on the benefits of educating their wards, and enforcing sanctions to erring parents, among others.
