EFFECT OF REALIA AND CHART ON STUDENTS’ ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN BASIC SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN AKWA IBOM STATE
ABSTRACT
This paper examined the effect of realia and chart on students’ academic performance in Basic Science and Technology in secondary schools in Akwa Ibom State. The study employed a quasi-experimental design. The population of the study consisted of all the students in Junior Secondary School Two (JSS2) in the public secondary schools in the area. A total of 100 students were randomly sampled from five out of eight public secondary schools in the study area. The instrument for data collection was Basic Science and Technology Performance Test (BSTPT). The two intact classes were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups using intact independent t-test statistical method. The results obtained revealed that Basic Science and Technology students taught using realia performed significantly better than those taught using charts. Recommendations were made that among others, teachers should be encouraged to use realia and chart. The Ministry of Education should intensify efforts to make facilities available for teachers. More conferences and seminars should be organized to widen the scope of utilization of realia in teaching Basic Science and Technology.
KEYWORDS: Realia, Chart, Students’ Academic Performance, Basic Science and Technology and Secondary Schools in Akwa Ibom State.
