Lack of proper laboratories and inadequate facilities have become some of the factors affecting chemistry practical in Nigeria which therefore affects students' performance. While there were many studies conducted on the effectiveness of mobile learning, literature remains very scarce in the Nigerian context. In order to tackle this problem, using…

The core tool for measuring the sustainability of the Library and Information Science (LIS) discipline is the curriculum which has always been a source of concern within the Nigerian space. It was on this premise that the study systematically investigated the redesigning of LIS curriculum for sustainable environmental transformation among students…

This research explored the impact of analogies and metaphors on the academic performance of senior school students in genetics within Ilorin, Nigeria. Three research questions and corresponding hypotheses were formulated and tested at a significance level of 0.05. A quasi-experimental design was used, involving 117 senior secondary school…

E-learning tools technology is a paradigm shift in facilitating learning in our world today and the driving force of education in developed countries. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the accessibility and utilization of E-learning tools for teaching biology in secondary schools in Ilorin metropolis. The study was guided by the…

The study focuses on assessing the proficiency levels of higher education students, specifically the physics achievement test (PHY 101) at the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN). This test, like others, evaluates various aspects of knowledge and skills simultaneously. However, relying on traditional models for such tests can result in…

This study addresses the challenge of teaching genetics effectively to high school students, a topic known to be particularly challenging. Leveraging the growing importance of artificial intelligence (AI) in education, the research explores the perspectives, attitudes, and behavioral intentions of pre-service teachers regarding the integration of…

Genetics concepts is taught at secondary school to equip students with relevant knowledge to engage with related socio-scientific issues in order to make a reasonable decision. However, earlier research shown that students exhibited poor comprehension of this concept. Despite several interventions, this problem persists. This study was designed to…

Integrating Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into the learning process is becoming increasingly crucial due to its potential to personalize and enhance learning engagement and experiences. This study investigated preservice science teachers' (PST) perceptions of ICT competencies for learning at Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka. Three…

A computer-based simulation is a viable approach for integrating the basics of science and technology in Junior Secondary. This study examined the impact of PhET on students' academic performance as well as students' motivation toward Basic Science and Technology. The study also investigates how PhET influence students' attitudes toward Basic…

Purpose: The lecture method has been compared with teaching methods such as flip learning, cooperative learning and simulations to establish which holds the key to students' understanding of concepts. What is bereft in the education literature is its comparative efficiency with the culturo-techno contextual approach (CTCA) in the teaching of…

This study investigated the perception of pre-service science teachers on the effect of the ban on Twitter- use in Nigeria in building learning communities, linkages, and accessing information. While the ban was predicated on allegations of hijack of the microblogging site for negative activities, there were outcries of its impact on learners who…

Understanding climate and its associated factors was familiar to Africans before contact was made with Western-made science. Introducing African learners to formal education seems to bring a disconnect between their indigenous knowledge about their environment and what is taught in the formal school curriculum. The indigenous knowledge systems…

In recent years, higher learning institutions have been forced to integrate online learning into their curriculum. However, despite the increasing popularity of online learning, students' engagement and interaction within this environment remain a crucial aspect to explore. This study investigates how connected the students are during their online…

The Fourth Industrial Revolution Chemistry Teachers Effectiveness Scale (4IRCTES) was evaluated in secondary schools in Southwest Nigeria to determine its item discrimination, item parameters, and model-data fit. This study utilised a descriptive survey research design and included 4,986 Chemistry teachers in the southwestern region of Nigeria,…

This study examined the impact of a pedagogy that is culturally influenced and laced with technological and contextual elements known as the culturo-techno-contextual approach (CTCA) on promoting knowledge retention of biology concepts. The research design was mixed methods, and the sample consisted of 88 senior secondary school II students…
