The Effect of Constructivist Teaching Model on SSS Physics Students’ Achievement and Interest:- Akanwa, U.N
Abstract
The effect ofconstructivist teaching model on
seniorsecondary school physics students' achievement and interest was examined.
Quasi-experimental design was employed. Using a stratified sampling technique,
a sample of 160 SSS physics student were drawn, and categorized into
experimental and control groups. The experimental group (80) was taught using
constructivist approach while the control; group was taught the same physics
concepts (waves and sound) using conventional (chalk board) approach. A
validated physics achievement tests on the lessons covered were administered to
both groups ofstudents before and after the experiment. Also a researcher
developed and validated interest inventory was administered to the two groups.
Mean, standard deviation and zstatistics were toolsfor the data analysis.
Bindings revealed that constructivist approach had a significant effect on both
the achievement and interest ofSSS physics students. Based on the findings,
some recommendations were made
