Background: Student engagement is crucial for academic success, yet many undergraduates exhibit low participation, poor attendance, and disengagement in General Studies (GNS) courses. Traditional teaching methods often fail to address the needs of diverse learners, particularly in large classes. The University of Ilorin recognizes the need for innovative approaches to improve academic engagement and outcomes. Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the development and implementation of an Interactive Digital Manual (IDM) tailored to the specific needs of GNS students. It examined the effects of the IDM on student attendance, engagement, and academic participation, alongside students’ perceptions of its impact on learning and retention. Method: A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving 1,332 participants selected from 200-level GNS courses across 17 faculties. Quantitative data were collected through surveys and attendance logs, while qualitative data were gathered via open-ended questions and focus group discussions. Statistical analyses were used to evaluate the IDM's impact. Results: The findings reveal significant improvements in attendance and engagement following the IDM's implementation. Median attendance increased by 866, while engagement scores rose from a mean of 32.5 to 75.8. Students highlighted features such as self-paced learning, interactive exercises, and real-time feedback as critical to their improved understanding and retention of course material. Conclusion: The IDM effectively enhances student engagement, attendance, and learning outcomes in GNS courses. Its innovative design addresses diverse learning needs, offering a structured, accessible, and interactive platform. This study underscores the value of digital tools in fostering academic success and calls for their broader integration into educational strategies.

Background. The successful adoption of blended learning in educational institutions is often hindered by technological and institutional barriers. These include constraints related to ICT infrastructure, digital literacy, and institutional policies, which collectively impede the implementation of blended learning methodologies. Purpose. This study aimed to investigate the institutional and technological barriers to blended learning adoption at Kwara State College of Education Oro. Specifically, it focused on assessing technological constraints, institutional policies, and digital literacy levels among educators and students. Method. A mixed-methods descriptive survey research design was employed. Simple random sampling was used to select a sample of 641 students and 90 lecturers. Data were collected using structured and unstructured questionnaires administered via Google Forms, enabling a comprehensive analysis of key trends. Results. The findings revealed significant barriers to blended learning adoption, including inadequate ICT infrastructure, low digital literacy among educators and students, and inconsistent power supply. These challenges highlight the need for targeted interventions to overcome the obstacles to blended learning implementation. Conclusion. The study recommends establishing a dedicated blended learning committee, developing clear institutional policies, and enhancing digital literacy training for both educators and students. Addressing these barriers is essential for the successful adoption of blended learning, which can improve educational outcomes and better prepare future educators for modern classrooms. Creating a supportive environment at Kwara State College of Education Oro is key to fostering the effective integration of blended learning methodologies

Background. The development of science literacy in early childhood lays the foundation for critical thinking, inquiry skills, and lifelong learning. Traditional approaches to science education often overlook the unique cognitive and developmental needs of young learners. Recent pedagogical shifts suggest that play-based learning may offer an effective pathway to foster scientific thinking in early childhood education. Purpose. This study investigates how play-based strategies support the development of early science literacy among preschool-aged children. The research employed a qualitative case study design involving three early childhood education centers that integrated science themes into daily play activities. Method. Data were collected through classroom observations, educator interviews, and children’s learning artifacts, then analyzed thematically to identify patterns of inquiry and conceptual understanding. Results. Findings revealed that play-based environments encouraged curiosity, hypothesis generation, experimentation, and early evidence-based reasoning. Children demonstrated an emerging understanding of scientific concepts such as cause and effect, classification, and environmental awareness through guided exploratory play. Conclusion. The study concludes that play-based learning serves as a powerful pedagogical approach for nurturing early science literacy. It recommends intentional integration of scientific exploration into play curricula to promote cognitive engagement and scientific habits of mind in early learners.

Background. Environmental sustainability has become a pressing global issue, demanding innovative educational interventions that directly engage communities. Project-Based Service Learning (PBSL) integrates academic learning with community service, fostering mutual growth and empowerment. Purpose. This study investigates the effect of PBSL on community empowerment within the context of sustainable environmental management. The objective is to assess how active participation in student-led environmental projects enhances local communities’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding sustainable development. Employing a mixed-method approach, the research involved quasi-experimental design and participatory observation in three rural villages. Method. Quantitative data were collected through pre- and post-tests, while qualitative data came from focus group discussions and stakeholder interviews. Results. The results indicate significant improvements in environmental awareness, collaborative problem-solving skills, and long-term community engagement. Furthermore, communities reported an increased capacity to manage environmental resources independently. Conclusion. In conclusion, PBSL not only serves as an effective pedagogical strategy but also empowers communities to take ownership of sustainable practices. The findings contribute to the growing literature on experiential learning and its transformative impact on society.

Backgroud. The prevalence of infectious diseases remains a pressing public health concern in rural areas of Indonesia, including Ulu Bawang Barat District, where limited access to healthcare services and low health literacy contribute to continued vulnerability. Conventional health interventions often fail to produce sustained behavioral change due to their top-down nature and lack of cultural sensitivity. Purpose. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a community-based health education model in promoting awareness and prevention of infectious diseases among local populations.Method. A qualitative research approach was adopted using a participatory action research (PAR) design. Data were collected through focus group discussions, semi-structured interviews with community health volunteers and residents, and direct observation of educational activities. Results. The findings indicate that culturally adapted health education programs delivered through peer-led initiatives significantly improved knowledge, attitudes, and preventive behaviors related to hygiene, sanitation, and early disease detection. The involvement of community members in designing and implementing interventions enhanced trust, engagement, and sustainability.Conclusions. The study concludes that community-based health education is a viable strategy for empowering rural populations in managing infectious disease risks. This model emphasizes the role of local agency and participatory learning in strengthening grassroots public health systems.
