Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Culturo-Techno-Contextual Approach (CTCA) in enhancing students’ critical thinking abilities in science with focus on hydrocarbon and to examine the gender impact on these abilities within the experimental group. A total of 127 science students for both the control (54 students) and the experimental group (73 students) in senior secondary year two (SS2) and 47 females and 26 males in the experimental group participated in the study. The research design was quasi-experimental (a pre-test post-test non-equivalent group) design. The instrument used to gather data was the hydrocarbon critical thinking test (HCTT). The results showed no significant difference in post-test mean scores between male and female students, although the CTCA treatment significantly improved students' overall critical thinking. No interaction effect between treatment and gender was observed. These findings highlight CTCA's potential to alleviate learning challenges in science and bridge the critical thinking gap between male and female students.

Abstract

The prerequisite for learning science lies in students' ability to adapt to new stimuli in learning environments. This ability is often reflected in their readiness to apply newly acquired knowledge in different contexts. This study investigated a culturally-influenced pedagogy infused with technological and contextual features to improve biology learning. A total of 138 Senior Secondary II students participated, comprising 75 students (45 males, 30 females) in the CTCA group and 63 students (30 males, 33 females) in the lecture group, with an average age of 15 years. An explanatory sequential mixed-method design was used. Quantitative data were collected using the Plant Nutrition Achievement Test (PNAT), which had a reliability coefficient of 0.83, while qualitative data were obtained through the Biology Students Interview Protocol in Biology (SIPB). Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, and thematic analysis) and ANCOVA at a 0.05 significance level were used for data analysis. The findings showed that CTCA students significantly outperformed the lecture group [F (1,134) = 1655.16, p < .05]. Students also expressed positive attitudes toward CTCA. The study concludes that CTCA enhances students’ achievement in plant nutrition and recommends its adoption by biology teachers to engage students effectively.
