Adeoye, Ademakinwa Gabriel; Abimbola, Olakanmi Isaac – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2016
This study investigated the effects of senior secondary school students' use of demo kits on their achievement in biology in Omu-Aran, Nigeria. The study utilized a quasi-experimental design and followed the non-randomized, non-equivalent pre-test and post-test control group of 2x2x3 factorial matrix. Data was obtained from four intact classes in…

Perry, S. Marshall; Catapano, Michael; Ramon, Olosunde Gbolagade – Journal for Leadership and Instruction, 2016
This paper explores the relationships among attitudes toward mathematics, teaching, and academic achievement in mathematics. Based on the contextual and social nature of academic self-concept, two complementary studies are discussed. The first study from the northeastern United States examined the relationships among these variables in 84 high…

Mitee, Telimoye Leesi; Obaitan, Georgina N. – Journal of Education and Practice, 2015
The cognitive learning outcome of Senior Secondary School chemistry students has been poor over the years in Nigeria. Poor mathematical skills and inefficient teaching methods have been identified as some of the major reasons for this. Bloom's theory of school learning and philosophy of mastery learning assert that virtually all students are…
