Abstract

This study investigated access to internet and socio-economic background as correlates of students’ achievement in Agricultural Science among selected Senior Secondary Schools Two Students in Ogbomoso South and North Local Government Areas. The study adopted multi-stage sampling technique. Simple random sampling was used to select thirty (30) students from each of the selected school in the two local governments. Stratified random sampling technique was used to select a sample of 300 students from various strata (school) chosen in the two local governments. Five research questions were answered. Descriptive Statistics, Pearson Moment Correlation and Multiple regressions were used to analyse the data gathered. The study observed that, 67.7% of the students have access to the internet (two-third of the sample). A positive but not significant relationship exists between access to internet and students’ achievement in Agricultural Science (r = 0.110 and p>0.05). There is a positive and significant relationship between socio-economic background and students’ achievement in Agricultural Science (r = 0.515** and p<0.01). Furthermore, relationship between socio-economic background and access to internet is not significant (r = 0.040 and p>0.05). Access to internet and socio-economic background are jointly related to students’ achievement in Agricultural Science. F (3,296) = 37.082, p<0.05, R value of .523ª, R ² of 2.73 and adjusted R square of .266.

Abstract

The use of internet has been widely accepted as a way of improving students’ performance in several subjects area. However, there is dearth of studies on the relationship between internet browsing, and students’ achievement in school subjects such as Agricultural Science. This study therefore, sought to investigate the relationship between internet browsing and students’ achievement in Agricultural Science. A sample of 300 students was drawn from 10 schools from the five local government areas of Ogbomoso. Internet Browsing Pattern Questionnaire (IBPQ) and Agricultural Achievement Test (AAT) were used to collect data. Cronbach alpha correlation coefficient of 0.807 (IBPQ) and 0.9531 (AAT) were estimated for the instruments. Four research questions were answered. Descriptive statistics and Pearson moment correlation were used to analyze data. Majority of the students have access to the internet. Most of the students that have access to the internet browse more for non-educative information (socio-networking sites).The relationship between internet browsing and students’ achievement in Agricultural Science through positive is not significant.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijere.v2i3.2430
