Comparative Study of Traditional Face-to-Face and E-Learning Modes of Teaching Senior High School Geometry
Journal Title: American Journal of Environmental Economics - Year 2023, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
This study compared the traditional face-to-face and e-learning modes of teaching Senior High School geometry and students’ geometry performance. The study used a quantitative strategy which adopted a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test non- equivalent control groups. Pre-test, post-test and retention test were used for the data collection. A total number of 52 second-year Senior High School students from two public schools in the Suame Municipality of the Ashanti Region of Ghana participated in the study. Students’ Geometry Achievement Test (SGAT) was used as pre-test, post-test and retention test instruments. The data was analysed using descriptive statistics and a t-test tested at a 0.05 significance level. The findings of the study revealed no significant difference in the post-test mean scores of students taught face-to-face and those taught using the e-learning mode even though there was a significant improvement in the performance of students after the intervention. Again, there was no significant difference in the retention test mean scores of the students taught using the face-to-face mode and those taught using the e-learning mode. The study, therefore, recommended that; policy makers in general, and mathematics curriculum developers in particular, plan and implement electronic learning modules to facilitate and enhance the teaching and learning of mathematics. It was again recommended that teachers take advantage of the new technology-driven world to blend the traditional face-to-face and e-learning modes of teaching to facilitate and enhance the teaching and learning of mathematics.
