Topic: EXAMINING PERFORMANCE AND EFFORT EXPECTANCIES AS DETERMINANT OF JUNIOR SECONDARY SCHOOL SCIENCE TEACHERS ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE USE OF MOBILE TECHNOLOGIES FOR SCIENCE INSTRUCTION
Description: This study aim to examine the performance and effort expectancies of junior secondary school teachers, and their attitude towards using mobile technologies for science instructions. The study will consider teachers in the six Educational Districts of Lagos State. It will adopt a descriptive survey design. The population will comprise all Junior secondary school science teachers in Lagos state. A questionnaire will be used for data collection. The questionnaire has four sections; section A covers the demographic information. Section B consists of ten 10 items for the performance expectancy of junior secondary school teachers on the use of mobile technologies. Section C consist of seven 7 items for the effort expectancy of junior secondary school science teachers regrading the integration of mobile technologies into science instruction, and section D consists of twelve 12 items for attitude of junior secondary school science teachers towards the use of mobile technologies for science instruction. Presently, the questionnaire is undergoing pilot testing for reliability to ensure its effectiveness in gathering accurate and relevant information.

EFFECT OF INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGE PRACTICE AND GAME-BASED LEARNING ON JUNIOR SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS ACHIEVEMENT IN AND ATTITUDE TOWARDS BASIC SCIENCE
Desirable learning outcomes in basic science require hands-on activity strategies. This relies on the teacher's choice and use of appropriate pedagogy. Therefore to improve students learning outcome in basic sciences, the study investigated the effect of IKP and GBL ON JSS students achievement in and attitude towards basic science. The study employed explanatory sequential mixed methods approach .The quantitative approach was quazi experimental pretest-posttest nonequivalent group design. Four research questions were raised to guide the study. The population of the study comprised of all Basic science students in public junior secondary school in Education District V Lagos State. Random sampling technique was used to select three schools from three zones (Ajeromi-ifelodun, Amuwo. Badagry). Basic science students in three intact classes of JSS II took part in the study. The sample size of 210 students with 65 students in the experimental group I (36 male and 29 female), 76 students in the experimental group 2 (30 male and 46 female) and 69 students in the control group (29 male and 42 female) which were taught ecosystem for a period of four weeks. The experimental group received instructions through the use of IKP and GBL while control was taught using conventional method. The data gathering instruments were Basic Science Ecosystem Achievement Test (BSEAT) and the Basic Science Ecosystem Attitude Questionnaire (BSEAQ). The reliability coefficient was established using split half method and yielded 0.72.
The study is at the Data Analysis stage
