    Predictors of female lecturers reproductive health behaviour in tertiary institutions in Nigeria
    (Department of Educational Management, University of Ibadan, 2016-01) Omokhabi, A. A.; Egunyomi, D. A.
    Women reproductive health behaviour (RHB) has generated a lot of interest from researchers across many disciplines because of complications on women health generally. Previous studies on women's RHB had focused on various categories of women and teenagers leading to a gap in literature on women in the tertiary institutions. This study, therefore, examined the extent to which cultural norms/religious belief, peer influence and mass media exposure influenced the RHB of female lecturers in tertiary institutions in South western Nigeria. The survey research design was adopted. The purposive sampling technique was used to 540 academic workers from thirteen tertiary institutions in South western Nigeria. Two instruments were used: RHB Scale (r=0.81) and RHB Determinants Scale with sub-scales, cultural/religious belief (r-0.83), mass media (r=0.75), and peer influence (r=0.71). Three hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance to determine the RHB of female workers. Pearson product moment correlation and content analysis was used to analyse data collected through the questionnaire form the respondents. Seventy-five percent of respondents exhibited good RHB. Their significant strength of relationships with RHB was ranked: religious/cultural belief (r-0. .066,); mass media exposure (r=0.070), and peer influence (r=-0.602). Mass media exposure, cultural norms/religious belief and peer influence strongly predicted reproductive health behaviour of female lecturers in sampled tertiary institutions. Improvement in the reproductive health behaviour among tertiary institutions female lectures calls for government to encourage and motivate women having two or more children to adopt family planning through mass media messages

    Teachers' classroom practices and content knowledge as predictors of civic competence of senior secondary school students in Ibadan
    (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.

    (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.

    (2013-07) Adesina O. J.; Gbadamosi, T. V.; Akanni, O. O.
    This research critically looked into the security unrest as a menace of economic imbroglio in Nigeria and counselling intervention. The simple percentage was used to analyse the demographic data while t-test statistical tool was used to test the three null hypotheses that was stated at 0.05 alpha level of significance. Meanwhile the three null hypotheses stated was rejected i.e. there is no significance difference in the security unrest of Nigeria on the basis of ethnic groups was rejected, which shows that ethnic groups culminated into security unrest of the nation. Therefore recommendations were made i.e. the government must be organising conference that would involve the people from the different religions and ethnic groups on the reason why they need to tolerate themselves.

    Appraisal of impact of NYSC’s skills acquisition and entrepreneurial development programme (SAED) on entrepreneurial development of ex-corps members
    (Faculty of Education, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria, 2022-01) Gbadamosi, T. V.
    The study assessed NYSC's Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development programme (SAED) on the entrepreneurial development of ex-corp members that served between 2015 and 2020. In this study, three research questions were posed and addressed. This study adopted a survey research design. 250 masters' students that have undergone NYSC were randomly selected at the University of Ibadan. Three validated instruments were used to collect data for the study: NYSC's Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development Programme Scale (ANYSCSAEDPS) (r = 0.76), Benefits and Challenges of NYSC's Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development Questionnaire (BNYSCSAEQ) (r = 0.84). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics of frequency counts, percentages, mean and standard deviation. The findings revealed that majority of the ex-corp members during NYSC's (SAED) Programme were exposed to educational skills, tourism and cosmetology, while few were exposed to horticulture and landscaping 15 (5.6 percent), power and energy 14 (9.6%), and automobile 8 (3.2 percent). The study also revealed that SAED was beneficial and very good for youth empowerment. It can therefore, be concluded that the SAED programme is beneficial to graduates' empowerment and the reduction of unemployment among youths, although its contribution to the development of entrepreneurial skills was not adequate enough due to some challenges facing its implementation. Consequently, the government should devote more attention to the programme by making resources available for its smooth implementation. Corps members should be re-oriented on the benefits of participating in SAED through their commitments when enlisting for entrepreneurship training during service, among other things.
