Biology is taught and learned in Nigerian schools from nursery to secondary school and postsecondary institutions. Biology science education attempts to study and comprehend the live organism and how it functions, students must have first-hand experience with and observation of the relevant events. The purpose of this research is to look into the challenges of teaching practical biology in senior secondary school. The research was conducted using a descriptive research approach. Education district IV in Lagos State was chosen using a random selection process. Seventy-one Biology instructors were chosen at random from among the forty schools to take part in the study. The data for the study was collected using the Problems of Teaching Practical Biology Questionnaire (PTPBQ). The findings identified a number of difficulties, including a paucity of specimens for Biology practicals and insufficient or unsatisfactory equipment for Biology practicals. It was observed that improvising the specimen by the teacher, students, and principals, as well as aid from the Parent-Teacher Association and Non-Governmental Organizations in the acquisition of realistic materials and equipment, are viable solutions to these problems.

This study is to investigate the effect of the Mobile Application developed on the academic performance of undergraduates in computer science at the University of Ilorin, Nigeria. Quasi-experimental design of pre-test, post-test non-randomized control group design was used to compare the performance of students who were exposed to Mobile Applications to learn Computer Science concepts and those who were taught through conventional methods. The computer science performance test (CSPT) was administered to the control and experimental groups as pretest and posttest. The sample size was chosen at random from 200 students. The instruments developed are mobile applications (DMP) and CSPT. CSPT was tested and a reliability coefficient of 0.86 was obtained using the Kuder Richardson KR-20. Two research questions and one hypothesis were formulated. The findings show that the experimental group is better than the control group with an average difference of 1.59. Male students did better than female students in the experimental group. There was no significant difference in the performance of male and female students in the two groups. This study concludes that the mobile application has a positive effect on student academic achievement. It is recommended, among other things, that University lecturers should take advantage of the potential of mobile technology applications in teaching.

The motions of a boomerang, a tennis ball with spin, and a flock of birds are studied with the assumption that, occasionally, capture into a noncircular orbit (NCO) is ruling the behavior. This approximation will be used in applications when the orbit is almost circular, but the angular velocity varies due to the interaction between orbital and sidereal motion. A format with decreasing radius is exploited, to model drop, due to spin. Collection and exchange by generalized conjugated forces from energy are extracted with a semi-derivative, which appears to give no loss, but only contributions. It is proposed that the collection of energy in surrounding air layers of a certain shape may be beneficial for propulsion. Since the analyses were based on daily life conditions, this can be applied for a support media in teaching science.

The availability of family medicinal plants as living pharmacies has been widely used by the community. The increasing use of herbal medicines causes scientific information related to these medicines to have an important position for the public. Ideally, all scientific information in the form of electronic files can be obtained from the internet. However, this condition cannot be fulfilled because of the high cost of internet subscription. Therefore, the knowledge that develops in the community about medicines needs to be documented as well as possible so that it can be maintained and studied by the next generation. This study aims to improve students' literacy skills about living pharmacies through information and communication media for elementary school students in the 2021/2022 academic year. We was conducted using a qualitative descriptive method accompanied by library research activities. This was proven through a pre-test questionnaire at the beginning and the average result of 17 students was 70.65%. After students were given material in the form of reading material about living pharmacies, students' understanding increased by 13.42%. Based on these data, it was revealed that most of the respondents had good knowledge after being given a literature study about living pharmacies.
