(Department of Arts and Social Sciences Education, University of Lagos, Akoka, Lagos Nigeria, 2019-09) Gbadamosi, T. V.; Oyetunde, M. O.
Abundant literature affirms students' low level of civic competence, especially ai the primary and junior secondary school levels. This study was embarked upon to determine teachers' classroom practices and content knowledge as predictors of senior secondary school students' civic competence (knowledge, disposition, and engagement) in Ibadan. Expo facto research design was adopted for the study with four hundred and fifty (450) students and fifteen (15) Civic Education teachers as participants. The instruments employed were Civic Education Teachers' Classroom Practices Observational Scale (CETCPOS), Measuring Guide for Teachers' Classroom Practices Observational Scale (MGTCPOS), Civic Education Teachers’ Content Knowledge Questions (CETCKQ), Students' Civic Knowledge Achievement Test (SKAT), Students' Civic Disposition Questionnaire (SCDQ), and Students' Civic Engagement Questionnaire (SCEQ). One major research question was raised and answered at 0.05 level of significance. Data were analyzed using mean and Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC). The findings of the study revealed no correlation between students' civic competence and teachers' classroom practices and their civic knowledge. Improved teachers' knowledge in Civic Education and classroom practices were observed, although without effects on the civic competence of students. It was recommended that government, school administrators and parents' factors be subsequently studied, and that evaluation of Civic Education should include behavioural assessment.
Household participation in domestic waste disposal and recycling: an environmental education implication
(Nigerian Association for Educational Administration and Planning (NAEAP), 2010-06) Gbadamosi, T. V.; Ajagbe C. A.; Awolola, O. l.
This study examined the factors influencing household participation in waste disposal and recycling focusing educational level, location of residence and income. The study was carried out in four Local Governments Areas in Oyo Metropolitan Area, namely Atiba, Oyo East, Oyo West and Afijio. Three research questions were formulated to provide data for this study. 192 household were sampled for this study. The data collected were analyzed using frequency counts and simple percentages. The findings revealed that there is low level of participation of household in waste disposal and recycling as a result of low level of household awareness on environmental implication of proper waste management. Also, revealed low household participation in waste sorting, disposal and recycling across educational level, income and location of residence. The findings have environmental implications. Therefore, it was recommended that teaching of environmental education should be promoted not only in school but also in informal ways of educating citizens.
Counselling implications of teaching economics through service learning instructional strategy to enhance entrepreneurship skills
(Fafunwa Educational Foundation (FEF) in collaboration with The Faculty of Education, University of Lagos, Akoka-Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria., 2018-09) Gbadamosi, T. V.; Akanni, O. O.
It is evident that Nigerian Government is making drastic and pronounced efforts at stemming the tide of unemployment via means such as change and innovation in the curriculum. However, it appears that there is no adequate instructional intervention to develop appropriate knowledge, attitudes and skills in learners for knowledge economy in the schools. Students are restricted to classroom instruction with little or no participation which has resulted in rote learning and memorisation and their attendant effects on learning outcomes. This paper, therefore, explored service learning instructional strategy that is outdoor and activity-based as a means of promoting entrepreneurship skills through effective teaching of economics for alleviating unemployment in Nigeria and its counselling implications. The following were also discussed in the paper: Economics, entrepreneurship, importance of an entrepreneur, characteristics of entrepreneur, economic view of unemployment, causes of unemployment, and counselling implications of effective teaching of economics for boosting entrepreneurship skills for alleviating unemployment. Some recommendations were made such as Economics teachers should employ service learning instructional strategy for effective teaching of Economics, universities should expose Economics students to service learning, and collaborate with industries; management is encouraged to organise on-the-job pedagogical training for Economics lecturers without a teaching qualification, and continuous professional development on innovative instructional strategies for all. Parents are counselled to encourage their ward(s) on the need to discover their entrepreneurial skills and make good use of them to be self-reliant, among others. All these will help to produce graduates that will be relevant beyond 21st century.
A survey of strategies of implementing national orientation agency’s value programme in secondary schools in Osun State, Nigeria
(WAEF & GTRG, Abidjan Cote’D’Ivoire &, Nigeria, 2023-03) Ajogbeje, O. O.; Gbadamosi, T. V.
This study examines the various strategies of implementing National Orientation Agency (NOA)'s moral value programme in secondary schools in Osun State. The study also examines the variation in the use of these strategies to determine their effectiveness on the implementation of the programme. Descriptive survey research design was adopted for the study which was guided by two research questions. The population for the study comprises of all NOA staff and secondary schools teachers in Osun State; while purposive sampling technique was used to select one hundred and twenty participants for the study. The instrument for the data collection was a constructed ten items structured questionnaire related to the strategies and the frequency use of these strategies were designed for the study. The instrument was subjected to face and content validity by Social Studies experts for scrutiny and review and validated two weeks before administration and its reliability was determined through Cronbach Alpha which yielded a co-efficient of 0.89. The data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics of frequency counts, percentage scores, mean and ranking order. The study revealed among others that most of the frequently used strategies were not appropriate for implementing the programme while appropriate strategies were seldomly used or not used at all. The study therefore recommended that NOA's staff should frequently use the appropriate strategies for implementing their programme so as to inculcate moral values into secondary schools students in Osun State.
