EFFECTS OF TWO METHODS ON STUDENT’S ACHIEVEMENT IN JUNIOR SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN YAKURR, CROSS RIVER STATE

ABSTRACT.

In Nigeria, student’s performances in basic science in the public examinations have not been encouraging over the years. The conventional method of teaching employed by the teachers has been one of the salient factors contributing to the discouraging performance. Previous studies have examined different instructional methods in different subjects without paying much attention to the use of guided inquiry and expository lecture methods on student’s achievement in Basic science in Yakurr. This study therefore investigates the effects of guided inquiry and expository lecture methods on students’ achievement in junior secondary school Basic science in Yakurr, Cross River State.

The study adopted a pretest-posttest non-randomized control groups design using one experimental group and one control group with a 2x2x2 factorial matrix. Four schools were randomly selected from Yakurr LGA. Junior secondary school students in year II(Jss2) in intact classes in each school were used. Two validated research instruments: Basic science Achievement test (BSAT)(r=0.97) and study habit inventory(SHL)(a=0.81 ) were used. Four hypotheses were tested at 0.05 significant level. Data were analyzed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA).

There is a significant effect of treatment on student`s achievement in basic science. Students in the guided inquiry method had a higher mean score than those exposed to expository lecture method. Gender and study habit did not have significant main effect on student’s achievement in basic science. The three-way interaction effects of treatment, gender and study habit did not have significant effect on student’s achievement in Basic science.

Guided inquiry method is superior to expository lecture method. Classroom teachers, educational psychologists, school administrators, educational planners and counselors should therefore embrace the use of guided inquiry method of teaching in the classroom.
