Students’ Post-Practical Experience And Academic Achievement In Senior School Physics

Abstract

This study investigated, using quasi-experimental design, Students Post-Practical Experience and Academic Achievement in Senior School Physics in Delta StateCapital Territory, Nigeria. Two Hundred and Seventy-four (274) Senior School Two (SS 2) Physics students from four randomly selected co-education schools formed the sample. Two schools were randomly assigned to both the experimental and control groups. Seven research questions and seven null hypotheses guided this study. A validated and reliable instrument, Post-Practical Experience Test (PET) was used to collect data in this study. Difference in Mean Score was subjected to Z-test statistic, which was significant in favour of the experimental group and was found to be gender and location friendly. Implications and recommendations were made.
