    EFFECTS OF NOTE-TAKING STRATEGIES, ATTITUDINAL DIFFERENCES AND SOME PERSONALITY TRAITS ON STUDENTS' ACHIEVEMENT IN SOCIAL STUDIES
    (1995) ABODUNRIN, G. O.
    This study employed a 3x2x2 pretest-post test control group factorial design to investigate the effects of note-taking strategies, attitudinal differences and some personality traits on students' achievement in Social Studies. The subjects of the study were 96 first year Social Studies students of three Colleges of Education in Oyo and Osun States of Nigeria. Two experimental and one control groups were used. The first experimental group listened to taped lecture and wrote their own notes. The second listened to the taped lecture and followed lecturer's prepared notes while the control group listened only to audio-taped lectures on population studies. The Eysenck Personality Inventory (EPI) and the Students' Attitude to Social Studies Questionnaire (SASSQ) were utilised to categorize the subjects into extroverts and introverts, and to those with positive or negative attitude to social studies. Without any opportunity to review notes, subjects were made to take two post-tests - Social Studies Immediate Recall Test (SSIRT) and Social Studies Delayed Recall Test (SSDRT). Three dependent measures which were obtained for each subject were the pretest score, the immediate post-test score and the delayed post-test score. Data obtained were analyzed using Analysis of Covariance while Tukey Honestly Significant Difference tests were used for post hoc tests. The highlights of the results include the following: (1) There were statistically significant differences in the students' achievement on the basis of the different note-taking strategies adopted at both the immediate and delayed recall tests. Both the note-takers and note followers had significantly higher scores than the control group. (2) There were no statistically significant interactive effects of note-taking strategies and attitudinal differences on the students immediate recall test but there were statistically significant differences at the delayed recall test. (3) There were no statistically significant interactive effects of note-taking strategies and personality traits on the students' achievement at both the immediate and delayed recall test. (4) There were no statistically significant interactive effects of note-taking strategies, attitudinal difference and personality traits on students' achievement at both the immediate and delayed recall tests. The results are consistent with the idea that note-taking can be a generative activity that encourages students to build connections between lecture information and what they already know. This is one of the implications of the findings. Other implications were: that, rather than indulging in writing notes on the blackboard or in handouts for our students, they should be taught how to encode accurately lecture information during lecture; that sufficient practice in note-taking should be given to our students right from the lower levels of education; that whether a student is extrovertic or introvertic in his personality disposition, his achievement in social studies depends more on the type of note- taking strategy he adopts during class lectures; that positive attitude to learning enhances better remembering and recall. Suggestions were also made for further studies in the area of the research.

    The population of mentally disadvantaged in Nigeria: health and development programme
    (Avebury Ashagate publishing limited Gower house, croft road, aldershot, hantd GU11 3HR, England, 1995) Emeke, E. A; Yoleye, T. W
    The paper considered the fact that the actual population of the mentally disadvantaged in Nigeria needs to be known, so that its economic importance on the overall development of the country can be assessed. By projection, and using comparative assessment methods from Nigeria and other countries, the writers estimated the population of the mentally disadvantaged in Nigeria to be 1.77million, and submit that this has grave consequences on the health programme and the general development of the nation. The writers contend that at present, Nigeria does not have adequate health facilities and programmes for its mentally disadvantaged citizens. However, attempts at provision of facilities can be found based in the homes of the mentally disadvantaged, in educational institutions, hospitals and at governmental level. The productivity of the mentally disadvantaged is very low, and to provide food, water, shelter, and other amenities to almost 2 million mentally disadvantaged, in a depressed economy will have a tremendously negative effect on Nigeria's development. The paper concluded that the situation can however be made better and the mentally disadvantaged can contribute thier own quota to the per-capita earnings for the nation. This could be achieved by making them productive through adequate training and provision of educative health programmes that have legislative backing. More researches and the use of therapeutic methods could help the mentally disadvantaged to learn and cope with some life situations. |Urban designs should accommodate the mentally disadvantaged and the soical integration strategies should be more humane and all embracing.

    Promoting adolescent reproductive health: role of NGOS, parental care & sex education
    (1997) Emeke, E. A
    Reproductive health care seeks to meet in male and female adolescents, the health needs assocaited with sexuality. This paper in taking a look at the reproductive health of adolescents, outlined the very positive roles the NGOs, parents and the school can play through appropriate sex education. The paper started off by giving seven reasons why the reproductive health of adolescents in Nigeria must be promoted. The paper reviewed the major UN conferences that have bearing with adolescents reproductive health and proffered actions that can be taken to achieve a number of strategic objectives based on the plans of action. On the role of NGOS, the paper advocated that NGOs which are strong forces to be reckoned with in the area of programme development and promotion of adolescent reproductive health, should retain the gains of the past and stregthen the weakness of the present, in the area of promotion of adolescent reproductive health. Since parental care is sine-qua-non to every aspect of the adolescent's life, reproductive health inclusive, parents were implored to ensure that practices , which will not promoted adolescents reproductive health, be reduced if not eliminated. Sex education should be seen as a whole area of interpersonal relations affecting human sexuality, and not just as a course emphasing soley the devices and methods of preventing pregnancies or avoiding STDs and STIs. This view of sex education will make adolescents in and out of school benefit from sex education. The paper concludes on the note that everybody should come together to nurture adolescents and promote their reproductive health

    Global view of activities of UNICEF on child survival, protection and development
    (Journal of School Health Education, 1999) Emeke, E. A
    United Nations children Education Fund(UNICEF) has invovled itself in a number of programmes. This paper, however, focuses mainly on those programmes directly related to child survival namely: health, nutrition, Water and Enviromental Sanitation(WES). The issues of child labour abandoned children and children with disabilities are the focus when discussing UNICEF's activities in the area of child protection. Education is touched on as a direct correlate of UNICEF's involvement in child development. Since the paper is taking a global view of UNICEF's activities, it does not concerntrate on any country per se. Focus on any particular country, be it Nigeria or any other one will be necessary if country programmes and activities were being discussed. Though the paper points out clearly that UNICEF has achieved quite a lot of successes in the paper's programmes of focus in many countries, the paper concluded by calling on UNICEF not to rest on its oars since there is still a lot more that can be achieved; and also that country governments, NGOs and other well meaning individuals should join hands with UNICEF to protect and develop the child, thereby seeing to his survival
