Book Description
The study was led by six research questions, and six hypotheses were examined at a significance level of 0.05. The quasi-experimental design was used, notably the non-equivalent control group design for the pretest and posttest. 4,873 senior secondary school students in the Nnewi Education Zone of the state of Anambra make up the study’s population. In the study, 2.73 percent of the population was used. A sample of 133 Nnewi Education Zone SS2 computer science students was used. The Computer Studies Department and one knowledgeable computer studies teacher from Nnewi. Kudder-Richardson Formula 20 was used to determine the instrument’s reliability. The CSAT was used as a pretest and posttest to gather data. Three weeks following the post test, the retention test was given.The results demonstrated that a lesson followed by animated media education greatly improved students’ computer science performance. When compared to the traditional approach, only tutorials considerably increased students’ retention, however, this improvement was not significant when compared to animated media. The study concluded that tutorials are successful at raising students’ achievement and retention. The use of animated material in the classroom has been shown to improve student achievement.

Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
Americans have long recognized that investments in public education contribute to the common good, enhancing national prosperity and supporting stable families, neighborhoods, and communities. Education is even more critical today, in the face of economic, environmental, and social challenges. Today's children can meet future challenges if their schooling and informal learning activities prepare them for adult roles as citizens, employees, managers, parents, volunteers, and entrepreneurs. To achieve their full potential as adults, young people need to develop a range of skills and knowledge that facilitate mastery and application of English, mathematics, and other school subjects. At the same time, business and political leaders are increasingly asking schools to develop skills such as problem solving, critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and self-management - often referred to as "21st century skills." Education for Life and Work: Developing Transferable Knowledge and Skills in the 21st Century describes this important set of key skills that increase deeper learning, college and career readiness, student-centered learning, and higher order thinking. These labels include both cognitive and non-cognitive skills- such as critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, effective communication, motivation, persistence, and learning to learn. 21st century skills also include creativity, innovation, and ethics that are important to later success and may be developed in formal or informal learning environments. This report also describes how these skills relate to each other and to more traditional academic skills and content in the key disciplines of reading, mathematics, and science. Education for Life and Work: Developing Transferable Knowledge and Skills in the 21st Century summarizes the findings of the research that investigates the importance of such skills to success in education, work, and other areas of adult responsibility and that demonstrates the importance of developing these skills in K-16 education. In this report, features related to learning these skills are identified, which include teacher professional development, curriculum, assessment, after-school and out-of-school programs, and informal learning centers such as exhibits and museums.
