| dc.description.abstract | This study compared the effectiveness of collaborative and flexible grouping learning strategies in enhancing immediate academic performance of Physics students in Senior Secondary Schools in Osun State. It also compared the effectiveness of collaborative and flexible grouping learning strategies in enhancing delayed academic achievements of male and female Senior Secondary Physics students in Osun State. It further compared the effectiveness of Collaborative Learning Strategy (CLS) and Flexible Grouping Learning Strategies (FGLS) in enhancing Physics students’ science process skills in Senior Secondary Schools in Osun State. These were with a view to providing empirical information on the effectiveness of these strategies on the teaching and learning of Physics among students in the study area. The study adopted a pre-test, post-test control quasi experimental research design. The population for the study comprised all senior secondary school Physics students in Osun State. Three intact classes of Senior Secondary School Two (SSS 2) Physics students constituted the sample. Sample was selected using Multistage Sampling Procedure. From the three senatorial districts in Osun State, one senatorial district was selected using simple random sampling technique. One Local Government Area was selected from the senatorial district. The selected schools were assigned to the collaborative and flexible grouping learning strategies, and the Teacher Expository Strategy (TES). Two instruments were used to collect data for the study namely- Physics Achievement Test (PAT) and Science Process Skills Observation Checklist (SPSOC). PAT was used to collect information on the academic and delayed achievements of students and SPSOC was used to collect data on students’ acquisition of science process skills. Data collected was analyzed using Analysis of Covariance. The results showed that significant difference exists in the effectiveness of Collaborative and Flexible Grouping Learning strategies in enhancing immediate academic performance of Physics students (F= 9.545, p < 0.05). Results also showed a significant difference between the effectiveness of the strategies in enhancing delayed academic achievements of male and female Physics students in Osun State Senior Secondary Schools (F= 3.623, p <0.05). Results further showed that there is no significant difference between the effectiveness of collaborative and flexible grouping learning strategies in enhancing Physics students’ science process skills in Osun State (F= 0.225, p > 0.05). The study concluded that CLS was more effective than FGLS in enhancing Senior Secondary Schools Physics students’ science process skills in the study area. | |
