Abstract
The study
investigated 7E's Learning-Cycle and Biology students' academic-achievement in
Akwalbom State. Two research questions and two null hypotheses guided the
study. Quasi-experimental precisely non-equivalent groups design was used.
Population of this study comprised 6810 SS3 students in 254 co-educational
schools. Sample of 128 SS3 students were drawn through Multi-stage sampling
technique. Adapted Biology AcademicAchievement Test was used for data
collection. The instrument ha,s 0.84 reliability index using
Kuder-Richardsonformular. Mean, standard deviation and Analysis of Covariance
were used to test hypotheses at 0.05 significance level. Results showed that
students taught with 7E's learning-cycle achieved significantly higher than
students taught using lecture method. 7E's learning strategy enhances female
achievement than their male counterparts. It was concluded that 7E's
learning-cycle is effective in enhancing students' achievement than lecture
method. The study recommended that Biology teacher should be encouraged by
Government to teach using 7E's Learning strategy and teachers should encourage
gender integrated-classroom-seating.
