PROCESS AND GUIDED APPROACH TO SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY STUDENT-TEACHERS GAIN VARIED METHOD IN WORKSHOP APPLICATIONS: A SAMPLE STUDY OF COMPUTER-ASSISTED APPLICATION

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to develop a new approach and assess the application for the sciences and technology student-teachers to gain, varied workshop methods in science and technology teaching. The paper also describes the computer assisted application in the subject of photosynthesis-light” developed in the context of this approach choosing the most appropriate design software called “Flash Player 10.1. The study was applied during the fall semester in the 2020-2021 and 2021 and 2022 academic year with 188 science and technology student-teachers who attended the course of Science and Technology Workshop Application – 1 at the Ekiti State University, Ado-Ekiti Faculty of Education affiliation with Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, Oyo based on action research methodology. The survey’s data was analysed with SPSS 16.00 using descriptive statistics based on mean and standard deviation. The interviewing data was analysed according to common views. In the study, theimplementation process of a developed approach was explained and an example of the computer – assisted application in the subject of “Photosynthesis – Light” was described. It was concluded that the developed approach introduces the science and technology student – teachers to an efficient and reflective process to gain varied methods in workshop applications.
