Effects of Gender and Collaborative Learning Approach on Students’ Conceptual understanding of Electromagnetic Induction

Abstract: The study investigates the effect of gender and collaborative learning approach on students' conceptual understanding of electromagnetic induction in Secondary Schools in Nigeria. Three research questions and 2 hypotheses were formulated to guide the research. The research design adopted for this study is the quasi-experimental design. In particular, the design is the non-randomized, pretest-posttest, control group design. The population of the study is made up of the 323 Senior Secondary III physics students … Show more

“…However, the students' different skills are dominated by their adaptability to the technology applied. In collaboration, gender differences are frequently employed to determine a group's task divisions, especially group works that require physical skills (Adolphus & Omeodu, 2016). Students tend to be spectators and data writers (like a secretary) when this method is implemented during the experimental activities.…”

“…However, in the data processing, analysing and reporting stages, the reverse was the case. This finding is also reinforced by the results of previous studies which show that generallly there is no difference in ability between male and female students, but only in a few conditions (Adolphus and Omeodu, 2016;Aeschlimann et al, 2016;Bećirović, 2017;Brodahl et al, 2011;Crymble, 2016;Master et al, 2017;Putri et al, 2018;Sayed and Mohamed, 2013). This result is different from previous research in that male students tend to have better analytical thinking skills than female students.…”

“…Research findings show that learning that involves collaboration and interaction of constructivist learning environments and integrative pedagogy has a positive impact on critical thinking skills, creative thinking, problem-solving, decision-making skills, student communication skills (Virtanen & Tynjälä, 2019) and concept understanding (Adolphus & Omeodu, 2016). Students actively construct knowledge through observation and experience (Sawitre & Pipitgool et al, 2021).…”
