How Creating Learning Outcomes Are Affecting Performance in Geometry of Students for Senior Secondary Schools in Science, Technology, Education, Mathematics and Society Domain


 

This study aims to find how performance of students from senior secondary school is getting affected by creative learning outcomes in Maiduguri Metropolis, Borno State, Nigeria. A comparison group before-after quasi-experimental design has been adopted to test hypothesis. One hundred and eighty students have been selected as sample from a population of four hundred and sixty (460) in three senior secondary schools using stratified randomly sampling technique. A high reliability index (.675) had been noticed while validating using Geometry Performance Test (GPT) through test retest while conducting pilot study. Mean, standard deviation and Analysis of Covariate (ANCOVA) had been used as statistical tools. As outcome this study revealed that creative learning outcomes significantly affected the performance of students. As a reason the application of geometry-based knowledge had been highlighted. It had been highlighted that without creative learning outcomes students face severe problems in science, technology, education and mathematics related problems solving. As a recommendation practice of creative learning had been suggested to find solution against poor geometry performance in Nigeria.

Abstract


This study aims to find how performance of students from senior secondary school is getting affected by creative learning outcomes in Maiduguri Metropolis, Borno State, Nigeria. A comparison group before-after quasi-experimental design has been adopted to test hypothesis. One hundred and eighty students have been selected as sample from a population of four hundred and sixty (460) in three senior secondary schools using stratified randomly sampling technique. A high reliability index (.675) had been noticed while validating using Geometry Performance Test (GPT) through test retest while conducting pilot study. Mean, standard deviation and Analysis of Covariate (ANCOVA) had been used as statistical tools. As outcome this study revealed that creative learning outcomes significantly affected the performance of students. As a reason the application of geometry-based knowledge had been highlighted. It had been highlighted that without creative learning outcomes students face severe problems in science, technology, education and mathematics related problems solving. As a recommendation practice of creative learning had been suggested to find solution against poor geometry performance in Nigeria.
