Enhancing Senior Secondary School Students Cognitive Achievement In Selected Biology Concepts Using Mercedes Model With Embedded Assessment Strategy

ABSTRACT

The ineffectiveness of the strategies traditionally employed by science teachers has been attested to by several researchers. Thus research in science education has continued to seek for more effective ways of teaching science in general and biology in particular in order to ensure meaningful learning. Therefore, this study examined Senior secondary school students cognitive achievement in selected biology concepts using Mercedes model with embedded assessment strategies. The study adopted pretest-post-test control group, quasi experimental design. From the six education districts (EDs) in lagos state, two were purposively selected. The two EDs were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups.  Three senior secondary schools were randomly selected from each ED. Altogether, a total of six schools in the two selected EDs were involved in the study. Two intact classes (one science and another non-science) were randomly selected from each of the six schools making a total of twelve classes.
