Effect Of Simulation Games On Senior Secondary Students Achievement And Retention In Chemistry
This study was carried out to determine the Effect of Simulation Games on Senior Secondary Students Achievement and Retention in Chemistry. The target population was all SS2 students in Onitsha North Local Government. Six schools were sampled using the stratified random sampling techniques, two co-educational, two male and two female schools was selected. One intact SS2 class from each of the six schools was selected, thus, yielding six classes. The sample comprises of 224 SS2 chemistry students, seventy five (75) students from male and female school was used as experimental group and 149 from co-educational was used as control group. A pre-test and post-test quasi experimental control design was used. The hypotheses were tested at P≤ 0.05 level of significance. The instrument used to collect data is chemistry achievement test (CAT) which was validated by a lecturer in chemistry and another in measurement and evaluation. Data collected was analyzed using mean. Standard deviation was used to analyze research question and hypothesis were analyzed using z-test. It was recommended among others that simulation game strategy should be encouraged for the teaching and learning of chemistry at the secondary school level. Professional association and educational researchers should organize seminars to sensitize the need for adaptation of simulation game strategy at the secondary school level. Based on the findings, suggestions for further studies were made.
