Abstract

This study investigated the effect of laboratory-based instructional methods on students' achievement in geometry within the educational context of Jalingo Metropolis, Taraba State, Nigeria, over six weeks. Recognising the potential of hands-on, experiential learning approaches in mathematics education, particularly in geometry, this research explored the effectiveness of laboratory-based instruction in enhancing student performance. Guided by three research questions and hypotheses, the quasi-experimental research design was employed on a sample of 160 Upper Basic II students, through pre-and post-test assessments. The Geometry Achievement Test (GAT) with a reliability index of 0.91 for the GAT, determined using the K-R20 method, was used for data collection. The mean and standard deviation statistics were employed to answer the three research questions, while covariance (ANCOVA) analysis was employed to test all hypotheses at a significance level of 0.05. The study found a significant improvement in geometry achievement among students exposed to the laboratory-based method, with 56% of the achievement score variance attributed to this method. Additionally, it identifies a noteworthy difference in achievement scores between male and female students taught geometry using the laboratory-based approach, with a significant interaction between the teaching method and gender. These findings underscore the potential of laboratory-based instructional methods to improve student engagement and comprehension in geometry, particularly in educational settings that face similar resource and teaching challenges. By fostering hands-on learning and critical thinking, this approach could be an effective strategy for enhancing math achievement and supporting curriculum development in Nigeria and comparable regions. Overall, the study contributes valuable insights to the discourse on innovative pedagogical practices in mathematics instruction, offering guidance for educators and policymakers aiming to improve mathematics education in similar contexts.

Abstract

This study explored the strategies employed by School Governing Bodies (SGBs) to enhance the quality of education in three selected secondary schools in the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa. Despite some improvement in Grade 12 results within the province, a downward trend was observed until 2016, raising concerns given that SGBs are legally mandated to improve educational quality. This qualitative research employed semi-structured interviews to gather data from twenty-two participants, including eighteen SGB members, two school principals, and two Education Development Officers (EDOs). The study applied Governance Theory as a framework to investigate the strategies used by SGBs to promote educational quality in their schools. The findings revealed that while SGB members were often inadequately trained for their governance roles, some employed strategies such as goal-sharing, fostering a common purpose, and engaging the community to improve education. However, the study also highlighted divergent views, with some participants questioning whether SGBs had any concrete strategies to enhance educational quality. Based on these findings, the study recommends the development of clear guidelines to assist SGBs in formulating effective strategies to improve the quality of education in schools. This paper will contribute to the body of existing knowledge, practice, and policy development to enhance the performance of the SGB to enhance the quality of education in South Africa.

Abstract

This study examined how group dynamics and visual cues strategies can foster academic performance of Senior Secondary II students of different cognitive abilities in Physics in Benue State, Nigeria. Specifically, the study determined which of the ability groups (i.e low, moderate and high) gained more when group dynamics and visual cues strategies were used in teaching Physics. The study adopted quasi-experimental design of pre-test, post-test non-randomized control group type. The population for this study comprised 815 SS II students offering Physics in public secondary schools in Makurdi Local Government Area in the 2023/2024 academic session, while a sample of 114 students was selected using multi-stage sampling procedure. The instruments for data collection are Physics Performance Test (PPT)  and Student Cognitive Ability Test (SCAT).  The PPT SCAT were validated by three experts. The reliability coefficient of the instruments were obtained using K-R20 and found to be 0.81 for PPT and 0.72 for SCAT. The collected data were analyzed using mean and standard deviation to answer research questions and ANCOVA to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that the mean gain in academic performance score of students taught Physics using group dynamics strategy was 22.75 for high, 18.47 for moderate and 3.45 for low ability students. There was significant difference in the mean academic performance scores of low, moderate and high cognitive ability students when group dynamics strategy was used in teaching Physics.The mean gain in academic performance score of students taught Physics using visual cues strategy was 22.79 for high, 15.72 for moderate and 3.22 for low ability students. There was significant difference in the mean academic performance scores of low, moderate and high cognitive ability students when visual cues strategy was used in teaching Physics. The study has established that for both experimental groups (that is, group dynamics and visual cues strategies) the performance of the students increases in the order of low ability →moderate ability → high ability. The study concludes that the effectiveness of the two strategies is dependent on cognitive abilities of the students. The high ability students benefited most, followed by the moderate ability students while the low ability students benefited the least from each of the strategies. It was therefore recommended that teachers of Physics should employ group dynamics and visual cues teaching strategies in Physics class to ensure effective teaching and enhance academic performance of students in the subject and to ensure successful teaching and learning of the subject for improved cognitive abilities of students in Physics, among others.

Abstract

Global environmental crises pose significant challenges to achieving sustainable development, making it imperative to integrate environmental awareness into education at all levels. Early childhood, particularly the kindergarten stage, is a crucial period for cultivating environmental consciousness and instilling lifelong sustainable values. Despite its importance, research on early childhood environmental education (ECEE) in the Philippines remains limited, leaving a gap in understanding how young learners perceive and engage with their environment. This study sought to address this gap by exploring the environmental consciousness of 39 kindergarten pupils at a laboratory school in Central Luzon, Philippines. Using the draw-and-tell technique, combined with semiotic analysis, it examined both the visual and verbal expressions of these young learners. Pupils' drawings featured natural elements (flowers, trees, clouds, and the sun), representations of biodiversity (birds and animals), and the built environment (houses). Imaginative features, such as balloons and rainbows, showcased their creative interpretations of the environment. Oral narratives complemented the drawings, offering deeper insights into their perspectives on environmental issues. The findings underscore the potential of ECEE to nurture environmentally responsible behavior from an early age and inform the creation of green instructional resources, including storybooks designed specifically for kindergarten learners.

Abstract

Background: In Bangladesh, the percentage of children found moderately and severely underweight were respectively 16.4% and 3.6% all over the country in 2018. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of and factors affecting childhood underweight<5 years old and identify socioeconomic inequalities contributing to childhood underweight in Bangladesh. Methods: Bangladesh Demographic Health Survey Data (2007, 2011, 2014 & 2017-2018) of 30,940 pairs were used for analysis. Chi-square tests were used to estimate the relationship between the independent variables chosen and underweight, binary logistic regression analysis was used to investigate potential risk factors, and decomposition analysis was conducted to assess inequality. Results: Binary logistic regression demonstrated that the children’s age, mother’s BMI, mother’s education level, father’s educational status, child delivery procedure, birth order of the child, recent diarrhea affectedness before the survey, sanitation, and wealth index were discovered to be essential variables affecting childhood underweight of children under 5 years old in Bangladesh.  Conclusion: The associated factors with underweight in this study should be considered when designing policies and programs, making it more effective to eradicate the underweight problem among children in Bangladesh.

Abstract

This study explores the essential factors and challenges shaping the Board Licensure Examination for Professional Teachers (BLEPT) performance of Bachelor of Elementary Education graduates of Batch 2022 within the new curriculum framework. It intended to profile, describe the influencing factors on exam performance in terms of personal, school, and home-related/family factors, discover the challenges perceived to impact performance, and propose a sustainability plan to achieve better performance in the licensure exam. A mixed-method approach, specifically descriptive phenomenology was employed with 51 respondents in the quantitative and 14 participants in the qualitative part. Key findings show the dominance of females (82%) in teacher education, most of them attended the formal review sessions (75%), and the majority are passers (82%).  Influences of factors have a very great extent which underscores positive self-perception in personal factors (4.36), satisfaction with school infrastructure, faculty competence, curriculum, and administration (4.57), and a generally supportive family environment, although with variations in parental monitoring (4.28). The challenges include work-life integration, financial strain, and psychological and emotional stress emphasizing the multifaceted nature of exam preparation.  No significant disparities emerged based on sex and BLEPT outcome (student/personal factors, p = .249; school-related factors, p = .664; and home/family-related factors, p = .855), highlighting consistent influences across diverse groups. However, significant distinctions were discovered in student and home-related factors between formal review attendees and non-attendees (with Cohen’s d values of 0 .69 (large effect) and 0 .65 (large effect), respectively), emphasizing the impactful role of formal reviews. The study recommends a sustainability action plan to lessen these challenges and enhance the preparation process for future exam takers.

Abstract

This study was conducted on undergraduate students participating in the Global Innovation Scholars (GIS) program between Southern Oregon University (USA) and the University of Guanajuato (Mexico) in the first semester of 2024. The GIS program provides students with a hybrid international experience to learn about international business. Still, it develops in participating students the intercultural skills necessary to perform in a global world. The questionnaire developed qualitatively and quantitatively was focused on detecting the impacts of the course experience on Mexican students, but with an emphasis on the development, or not, of aspects related to intercultural skills. These impacts were measured against Karimova et al.’s model of areas of impact in intercultural learning. Also, results were measured against Neuner’s proposed intercultural skills and competencies needed for global success. The results showed that the GIS Mexican students were impacted positively in all the areas of intercultural learning and developed all the intercultural skills and competencies needed for global success listed by Karimova et al. (2024) and Neuner (2012). It was found that students expressed various aspects of improvement and change in perspective on the business world and the importance of developing intercultural skills for business success.
