ABSTRACT

This study was carried out to assess students’ opinion on teachers’ utilization of instructional media for the teaching of Chemistry of Senior Secondary Schools in Itu Local Government Area. Three null hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. Related t-test was also reviewed. A survey design was adopted for the study. The population consisted of all SS2 Chemistry students from ten public Secondary Schools. A random sampling technique was used to select 200 SS2 students from the population. The instrument used for data collection was Instructional Media Utilization for Effective Teaching of Chemistry Questionnaire (IMUETCHQ). T-test was used for testing the null hypothesis. The result showed that there is a significant difference in male and female students’ opinion of teachers’ utilization of instructional media for the teaching of chemistry. It was therefore recommended that based on the findings that school inspectors must ensure that they encourage teacher to use instructional media during their inspection.
