    Effects of Repetitive Audio-Visual Display on Volleyball Skill Acquisition among Non-Athletes Undergraduate Students of a South-Western Nigerian University
    (2005) Adeyanju, Lade
    Eighteen (18) Freshmen; 12 male and 06 female with age of between 18 and 24, mean 21 years, S.D. 4.5, who are non athletes but indicated interest in playing volleyball game were exposed to a repetitive show of a locally recorded video tape for one hour on volleyball. Subjects of the study were selected through randomization procedure and sorted into groups A, B, and C comprising 02 female and 04 male in each of the groups. Group A, Group B, and Group C viewed the video show once, twice and three times respectively within two weeks. Group A participated with Group C during the first day of viewing, while group B and C, were given further treatments subsequently. Data gathered on skill acquisition were analyzed with descriptive statistics. Results indicate students to gain knowledge in volleyball skill acquisition in reference to overhead serve, reception, volleying and spiking of the ball. It was recommended that locally recorded videotapes be used repeatedly to motivate as well as reinforce skill learning in ball games. The repetition of the view clip seems to have effects on acquisition and mastery of skills. Group B viewed the video clips two times and they performed better than groups A and C. When skill acquisition by gender was analyzed there was no difference in both male and female performances.

    Media, Women and Environmental Education
    (1998) Adeyanju, Lade
    Nigeria, with a reported population of about one hundred million is yet to get rid of street trading, destitution and solid waste management; while approaching the twenty first century. As the population continues to grow, environmental threats have continued to increase. This is why enlightened Nigerians have to get worried about finding relevant solution to the persistent environmental problems. One of the ways by which awareness can be intensified is through the use of educational media, with due consideration to women education. Unfortunately, a large proportion of Nigerian women cannot read, or write. This is why the educational technology approach should be imbibed. Nigerians will listen to news that relate to their immediate problems. Nigerians will pay to watch a mediated instructional designed film, drama and programmes that could solve their environmental as well as socio-economic problems. The approach to enlightenment through posters, bill-board advertisement, picture, organized seminars and workshops could see Nigeria through some of the problems bedeviling our environment. However, Nigerian women perhaps have distinct role to play.

    Teacher Quality, Modern Technology Applications and Teaching at a South-Western Nigerian University
    (2006) Adeyanju, Lade
    Increase in enrolment of learners at the different levels of the educational system and particularly in the South-western Nigerian universities motivates this paper. The stretched facilities, infrastructure, poor funding and attitude of stressed teachers to adoption of new technologies affect quality teaching and thus demand the attention of instructional designers. It is felt that the application of modern technologies in teaching and learning, especially the interactive instructional design packages as used in the (K12 school education) would lead to quality teaching. It was suggested that teachers be encouraged to explore the potentials found in the information communication technologies (ICTs).

    Teachers Perception of the effects and use of learning aids in teaching: a case study of Winneba basic and secondary schools.
    (2003) Adeyanju, Lade
    Learning and teaching is the concern of the trained teacher. But learning is a complex process. It can however be defined as a change in disposition; a relatively permanent change in behaviour overtime and this is brought about by experience. Learning can occur as a result of newly acquired skill, knowledge, perception, facts, principles, new information at hand etc. Learning can be reinforced with learning aids of different variety because they stimulate, motivate as well as arrest learner's attention for a while during the instructional process.
