Abstract

Learning style has been considered as one of determining factors for learning processes. This study aimed at observing the correlation between students? learning style and performance of Nigerian students in biology. The sample of this study consisted of 100 students which were randomly selected from the secondary schools in Ifelodun LGA, Kwara State, Nigeria. The two validated instrument used for data collection were Grasha & Reichmann?s Student Learning Scale and VAK/VARK Learning Style. The data gained were analyzed using percentage, Pearson correlation, and Chi-Square test. The study findings indicated that: (i) there was a negative correlation between students? academic performance and visual (-0.061) and kinesthetic learning style (-0.50), as well as positive correlation between the performance and auditory learning style (0.108). (ii) There were no significant differences between the study of learning styles, either visual (t(99) = 1.60, p = 0.11), auditory (t(99) = 1.33, p = 0.18), or kinesthetic (t(99) = 0.59, p = 0.55), of male and female biology students? performance. Thus, it is suggested that teachers choose the most proper learning methods which accommodate the students? need based on their learning styles.

Abstract

Cell Division topic in Biology is often challenging for students due to poor understanding. The study investigated how concept mapping impacts the retention of senior secondary school biology students in Kwara State, Nigeria. Using a quasi-experimental design with 77 students from two public junior high schools. The design is suitable due to its limitations, such as the inability to assign participants and the use of pre-existing groups randomly. Data was collected using Biology Concept Map Instructional Strategy for Teaching Cell Division and Biology Performing Test. The instruments were validated by experts and tested on 40 students. The results showed a significant difference in retention levels between male and female students when teaching Cell Division using this strategy (p0.05). It is recommended that Biology teachers prioritize the use of Computer-Machine Interfaces when teaching Cell Division, particularly for students with low retention and female students. The concept mapping instructional strategy significantly improves students' retention levels in Cell Division Biology, particularly among female students. It also indicates that gender is greatly influenced by this strategy, with females showing higher retention rates. Therefore, it suggests that using this approach in senior secondary school biology education can significantly enhance retention rates.

Abstract

The study examined the effect of concept mapping instructional strategy on senior secondary school students’ scoring levels in biology in Kwara State. A quasi-experimental research design of pretest, posttest, and control group was used. The target population was 852 Secondary School Students (SSS II) from two selected public senior secondary schools in Ilorin, Kwara State. The sample consisted of 80 Senior Secondary School II Biology students purposively selected from two Public Secondary Schools in Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria. The adapted Biology Concept Map Instructional Strategy for Teaching Cell Division (BCMISTCD) and Scores from the Biology Performance Test (BPT) were used for data collection. The instruments were duly validated by experts. The reliability of the Biology Performance Test (BPT) instrument was .83. Frequency count, percentage, mean and standard deviation to answer the research questions (1-2). Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) and T-test were used to test the null hypotheses 1-2 at 0.05 level of significance. Results show that there is a significant difference in the scoring levels of Biology students when concept mapping instructional strategy is used to teach Cell Division (p.<0.05). The study also indicates that there is a significant difference in the male and female students scoring levels when concept mapping instructional strategy is used to teach Cell Division (p.<0.05). Based on the results, the study concludes that there is a significant difference in the post-test and post-posttest scoring levels of the students when concept mapping instructional strategy is used to teach them. The study also concludes that male students’ scoring level is higher than that of female students when concept mapping instructional strategy is used to teach Cell Division. The study recommends that Biology teachers should teach female students who have low-scoring levels in Biology by using concept concept-mapping instructional strategy. This would further improve the female students’ scoring levels in the Cell Division. The study recommends that Biology teachers should focus more on female students when concept mapping is used to teach Cell Division.  Keywords: concept mapping, scoring levels, cell division, biology students, gender

Abstract

Chemical equations have been identified as a complicated topic in the Nigerian School Certificate. This study investigates the effect of computer simulations on student performance in high school chemistry courses on the topic of chemical equations in Offa, Nigeria. This study adopted a quasi-experimental research design with a pre-test, post-test, and non-randomized control group. The population is all high school students totaling 756 students. The sample was selected purposively, namely 136 students. Chemical Equation Performance Test (CEPT), Online Computer Simulation of Chemical Equations (OCSCE), and Cognitive Force Checklist (CSC) with reliability coefficients of 0.76, 0.81, and 0.78, respectively, were used as instruments for the study. The results of this study are that there are differences in the performance of students who are taught using computer simulations, between the performance of male and female students, and differences in performance between students who score low, medium, and high. It was concluded that computer simulation affected the performance of high school students. It was supposed that computer simulation affected the performance of high school students. It is recommended that future researchers apply computer simulations to other learning.

Abstract

Chemistry deals with the composition, properties, and uses of matter, the interaction between different matter, and the relationship between matter and energy. The utilization of Information and communication technologies in educational institutions globally has facilitated the streamlining of instructional processes, thereby fostering national stability and economic sustainability. This study investigated teachers’ utilization of ICT resources in teaching chemistry in senior secondary schools based on teachers’ gender, educational qualification, and teaching experience. The study was a descriptive research of a survey type. A purposive sampling technique was used to select 250 chemistry teachers from Kwara state, Nigeria. Five research questions were generated and answered using frequency count, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. Three hypotheses were formulated and tested using t-test and ANOVA at 0.05 level of significance. The instrument for data collection is a researcher-designed questionnaire titled Questionnaire on Utilization of ICT Resources (QUICT). Findings revealed that the available ICT resources were rarely utilized among chemistry teachers while most of the chemistry teachers do not utilize ICT resources for teaching chemistry. The study concludes that teachers’ gender, educational qualification, and teaching experience significantly influence the level of utilization of ICT resources in teaching senior school chemistry. The study recommended that the Government should ensure adequate funding to provide ICT resources in senior secondary schools as contained in the national policy on education. Chemistry teachers should endeavor to attend seminars, conferences, and workshops to update themselves on global best practices on the utilization of Information and Communication Technology resources in teaching chemistry.
