Abstract

The COVID-19 caused by the SARS-CoV-2, which originated from the Wuhan Province of China during the last days of 2019, has become a global health issue unprecedented since the Spanish influenza of 1918. As of December 30th, there were 86,576 recorded cases of Covid-19 and 1278 confirmed deaths in Nigeria. While the impact of the pandemic varies across societies, for most countries, available evidence reveals that it has increased poverty and inequalities. This study assessed the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on the economic status of people in Calabar. The survey research method was used in collecting data from a sample of 400 from Calabar, Cross River State, Nigeria. The instrument of data collection was a self-developed unstructured questionnaire. Data were collected within eight days with the aid of five (5) research assistants. Out of the 400-instrument distributed, only 386 was returned and was used for the analysis. Data collected were coded and analyzed using descriptive statistics such as frequency distribution, tables and figures. The result from the descriptive statistics was then subjected to parametric statistics at the 0.05 confidence level. The result from the analysis revealed a significant impact of the covid-19 pandemic on the economic status of people in Calabar, Cross River, Nigeria. Based on the findings, the study recommends, among others, that the government at every level prioritize the distribution of stimulus packages equitably

Abstract

This study attempts to examine the extent to which school-related variables such as teacher's quality, classroom ergonometric affects the Quality Leaning Outcome of senior secondary school students. The study was a survey research design. Data was collected from 385 senior secondary school students of government-operated secondary schools in Calabar, Cross River state, using a structured questionnaire. The purposive sampling technique was used in selecting the samples from the study area. Collected data were screened and checked for errors. The data was then analysed using descriptive and parametric statistics at 0.05 significant level. Out of the 385-instrument distributed, 376 was returned and used for analysis. From the interpreted data, the result revealed that high teacher quality statistically significantly differs from low teachers' quality in terms of Quality Leaning Outcome of secondary school students. This result is because the calculated t-value of t (374) = 3.57 was higher than the critical t-value of 1.96 at p < .05. This result means that the high quality of teachers affects student academic outcome. Also, the result revealed that classroom ergonometric significantly relates to quality of academic outcome. Because the calculated r-value of 0.170* is greater than the critical r-value of 0.098 at 0.05 level of significance with 374 degrees of freedom. With these results, we can conclude that school-related variables significantly relate to quality academic outcome. Hence, there is a need for improvement in school variables in schools in the study area.
