Research Questions

This study investigated the effects of Cueing questions as instructional scaffolding on Secondary school students‟ interest in biology in Udi Education Zone, Enugu State. Quasi-experimental design, specifically the Pre-test, Post-test, Non-equivalent control group design was used. Three research questions and three null hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. A sample of 140 students from four intact classes purposively selected from government co-educational secondary schools in Udi Education Zone, were used for the study. The main instrument for the study was Biology Interest Inventory (BII) which was developed, validated and used for data collection. The data collected from BII was trail tested for reliability using Cronbach Alpha statistics. Reliability index of 0.86 was obtained which guaranteed the use of the instrument for the study. The treatment group was taught selected biology concepts using cueing questions as instructional scaffolding while the control group was taught without the cueing questions. The study lasted for 6 weeks. Data were analysed using mean and standard deviation to answer the research questions while analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test the null hypotheses at 0.05% level of significance . The findings indicated that cueing questions used as scaffold was more effective than the one without scaffold in enhancing interest in Biology. The finding equally indicated that there was a significant interaction effect of gender and strategies on students‟ mean interest scores in Biology.

<p class="Abstract">Drawing – based modeling as learning approach, it allows students to create models based on drawing which help them to run a simulation. Students can use drawing–based modeling to learn a pair of interacting population known as predato–prey system while they usually conducted practicum using diagram of organisms. This study was to explore students’ argumentation and students’ understanding on the concept of the ecosystem. The study was conducted quasi – experimental using the matching – only post-test – only control group design. The participants consist of 60 grade 10 senior high school students in Subang, West Java. They are placed into two groups, 30 students in the experimental group and 30 students in the control group. Data was collected through argumentation test and selected response test for assessing students’ understanding. Students’ argumentation were analyzed using Toulmin’s argumentation pattern and statistical analysis. The result showed there is no significant difference between the experimental group and the control group for students’ argumentation. Most of the students are predominantly at level 2. But the coherency of arguments of the experimental group is more coherent than the control group. It means that the students in experimental group can make logical claim and supported by the correct and relevant grounds (data, warrant, and backing). The result of students’ understanding showed there is a significant mean score between the experimental group and the control group whether 72.33 for the experimental group and 62.13 for the control group</p>
