The study was carried out to determine the influence of visual, auditory, kinesthetics, tactile, group and individual learning styles on the study habits of senior secondary school chemistry students. These were with the view to examine the influence of learning styles preference on senior secondary school chemistry students study habits in Osun…

This study surveyed 19 chemistry teachers' stoichiometry pedagogical content knowledge (SPCK) in Ijebu Ode local government area of Ogun state, Nigeria using Malcolm's Physical Science Teachers' SPCK test. The qualitative data were transformed to scores, which revealed the level of chemistry teachers' knowledge of students' prior knowledge,…

This study evaluated the effectiveness of interactive engagement pedagogy, specifically, cooperative learning pedagogy in improving students' academic achievement and academic self-concept in chemistry. A pre-test, post-test, non-equivalent, control group quasi-experimental design was adopted. The study was in senior secondary schools in one of…

E-learning is not a new concept to the American University of Nigeria (AUN); however, it has always been applied to the lectures but not in the laboratories for the chemistry courses before and during the first phase of the COVID-19 lockdown. The sudden disruption of learning caused by the forced lockdown issued by the government authority in an…

The goal of this study is to examine the role of knowledge and epistemological beliefs in the relationship between STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) professional development programme (SPDP) and instructional practices in a longitudinal study. To achieve this goal, it first determined the relationship and impact of SPDP on…

Background: Science educators around the world have recognised that difference in performance exists between male and female students in chemistry and there have been several efforts and interventions through research and workshops to bridge this gap. Purpose: Owing to the current growth of the effects of the use of computer simulations on…

The Fourth Industrial Revolution Chemistry Teachers Effectiveness Scale (4IRCTES) was evaluated in secondary schools in Southwest Nigeria to determine its item discrimination, item parameters, and model-data fit. This study utilised a descriptive survey research design and included 4,986 Chemistry teachers in the southwestern region of Nigeria,…

This study described the implementation procedure (step-by-step) of the culturo-techno-contextual approach (CTCA) in the classroom with concrete curricular examples for each step. The study then proceeded to explore the potency of CTCA on nuclear chemistry, a traditionally perceived difficult concept among secondary school students in Nigeria, as…

Lack of proper laboratories and inadequate facilities have become some of the factors affecting chemistry practical in Nigeria which therefore affects students' performance. While there were many studies conducted on the effectiveness of mobile learning, literature remains very scarce in the Nigerian context. In order to tackle this problem, using…

This study focused on addressing underperformance in chemistry in Anglophone West African countries. The main purpose of the study was to determine if factors such as gender, school location and ownership impact students' perception of the difficulty of chemistry concepts and to suggest how these difficult concepts can be made easy to learn from…

Petroleum products are very flammable and can ignite at extremely low temperatures if exposed to an open flame source or not handled appropriately. Individuals who handle petroleum products in the petroleum industry and fuelling stations are known as "petrol station attendants". The study was a descriptive cross-sectional study carried…

The low Cumulative Grade Point Average of most chemistry undergraduates results in their low achievement and motivation which poses a threat to the production of future chemistry teachers. The diversity of this problem has resulted in several suggestions concerning the application of Google Meet strategy to determine its efficacy in ameliorating…

The study explored the influence of principals' leadership styles on senior secondary school students' achievement in chemistry in the Kogi State of Nigeria. It was guided by one research question and three hypotheses. Correlation survey research design was used. The target population was Senior Secondary Class Three chemistry teachers and…

This research focused on the impact of research- and assessment-based instruction on senior high school students' achievement in selected chemistry topics. A 3 × 2 × 2 pre-test and post-test control group in a quasi-experimental research design was used on a population of Grade 11 chemistry students in Ojo Local Government Area of Lagos state. Two…

Learners play very significant roles in the teaching-learning process. Irrespective of how teachers teach, learners often have their own ways of learning. Three hundred senior secondary school II students selected from 10 senior secondary schools in Ilorin, Nigeria participated in the study. Simple random sampling technique was used to select 30…
