COMPARATIVE STUDY OF COMPUTER ASSISTED PROGRAMME AND CONVENTIONAL TEACHING METHOD IN THE TEACHING OF INTEGRATED SCIENCE IN JUNIOR SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN IKERE LOCAL GOVERNMENT OF EKITI STATE
ABSTRACT
The study is aimed at comparing computer assisted programme and
conventional method of teaching integrated science. To
carry out the study, foure research questions were reviewed in line with the purpose of the
study. four hypotheses were formulated
and were tested at 0.05 level of significance. The design of the study was
quasi-experimental design consisting of pre-test, post-test statistics were
used the population of the study consisted of all students in secondary schools
class one in Ikere Ekiti. 60 students were randomly sampled from four secondary schools in Ikere Ekiti. Two
schools consisted the sample for the experimental group while the remaining two
schools were used for the control groups. The data collected were analyzed
using both descriptive and inferential statistics such as mean, standard
deviation, t-test and ANCOVA. The findings shows that: students taught
integrated science with CAP performed significantly better that their
counterpart. Gender had no significant influence on students performance. Based
on the findings, the results further revealed that the use of computer Assisted
Programme made the teaching and learning of integrated science meaningful.
Recommendation were made which include that teachers should be computer literate,
and that Ekiti State Government should encourage and liaise with stakeholders
in the state to provide well equipped computer laboratories in all secondary
schools in the state among others.
