Effects of Hausa Chemistry Practical Module on Achievement and Science Process Skills among Secondary School Students in Minna, Niger State

Abstract

The study Effects of Hausa Chemistry Practical Module on Achievement and Science Process Skills Among Secondary School Students in Minna, Niger State. This study utilized the design and development research approach to establish an empirical basis for the creation of Hausa Practical Module, which is a self-instructional module. In particular, the researcher utilized the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implement, Evaluate) Model in developing the Hausa Practical Module in Volumetric Analysis. The total population was Twelve thousand Four hundred and thirty-three (12433). The students in each of the intact classes will constitute the sample size (414 obtained from the Raosoft Sample size calculator) to be used for the study. Two research questions were raised. Six experts validated the research instrument used for the study. Three instruments were used for this study. A Test- Retest Method was used to administer the CPATEL and CPATHL i.e. the students were given the CPATEL and CPATHL multiple-choice items with four options A-D after one week, and the same test was re-administered to the same group of students. The results of the first test and the second were subjected to Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (PPMC) and its correlation coefficient indexes of 0.89 for the CPATEL, and 0.81 for the CPATHL, meaning the two instruments are reliable for the study.
