The instrument used for data collection was designed by the researchers and named Creative Arts, Recreational Activities, Free Play, and Creative Skills Development Questionnaire (CARAFPCSDQ). The instrument was pilot tested for reliability with an index of 0.81. Three research questions were asked, and three hypotheses tested at 0.05, level of significance. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics of frequency count and simple percentage to answer research questions while Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05, level of significance. The results showed that primary school pupils are exposed to creative arts, recreational activities, and free play. The result also showed a significant relationship between exposure to creative arts, free play, and creative skills development among primary school pupils. The study, however, found no significant relationship between recreational activities and creative skills development of primary school pupils. Based on the findings of the study, recommendations were made among which are, government should train and post more creative arts teachers to schools.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the trend of interactive e-module usage in Ecology learning and identify the gap between students' needs and experiences of using them. The research method used a mixed-method research design by combining Systematic Review and quantitative descriptive method, reinforced by student needs questionnaire data. The results of the study indicate that students' needs and interests in interactive e-modules are in the high category, especially for visual and interactive learning media. However, the experience of using interactive e-modules is still relatively low. This finding indicates a gap between students' needs and the implementation of e-modules in Ecology learning. Therefore, the development and implementation of interactive e-modules that are appropriate to students' needs need to be optimized to support more effective Ecology learning.

Three research questions and three hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. The descriptive survey research design was used for the study. A sample size of 300 kindergartens three (KG, 3) pupils was selected using simple random sampling technique. “Utilization of Instructional Materials and Effective Teaching and Learning of English Language in Early Childhood Schools Questionnaire (UIMETLELECSQ)” was used for data collection. The instrument was face validated. A reliability coefficient of 0.86 was obtained for the instrument using Cronbach Alpha. Mean and standard deviation were used to answer the research questions while Chi-square (X2) test was used to test the hypotheses at .05 level of significance. The findings of the study indicated that visual materials, audio materials and audio-visual materials significantly influenced the effective teaching and learning of English Language in Early Childhood Schools. It was recommended among others that professional bodies and private individuals should strive to complement government efforts in providing necessary instructional materials to Early the Childhood Schools so as to enhance the teaching effectiveness of teachers of English Language.

Abstract

The impact of Jolly Phonics on vocabulary accomplishment in elementary schools in the Uyo Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria, was examined in this study. The vocabulary achievement scores of students who were taught reading skills using Jolly Phonics and those who were not, the vocabulary achievement scores of students who were taught spelling skills using Jolly Phonics and those who were not, and the vocabulary achievement scores of students who were taught writing skills using Jolly Phonics and those who were taught without Jolly Phonics in the Local Government Area were all considered in this study. With a non-randomized pretest-posttest control group and a sample size of 120 participants, the study used a quasi-experimental methodology.The data was analyzed using the mean, standard deviation, and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). In primary schools in the Uyo Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria, there was a significant difference in vocabulary achievement scores between students taught reading skills using Jolly Phonics and those taught without it, between students taught spelling skills using Jolly Phonics and those taught without it, and between students taught writing skills using Jolly Phonics and those taught without it, according to the study's findings at the 0.5 level of significance. Recommendations were provided when needed.
