dc.description.abstractThis study was no assessment of Social Studies Education influence on acquisition and exhibition of knowledge core-value for National Integration among Undergraduate Students in Nigeria. Accordingly, seven (7) research objectives, questions and null hypotheses each guided the study. Descriptive survey method was employed and the population of study was all undergraduate Social Studies students in North-west geo-political zone of Nigeria numbering two thousand one hundred and thirty-five (2,135). A sample of four hundred respondents (400) was selected through the use of purposive and proportionate sampling techniques. Mean and standard deviation were used to report the descriptive data collected, while t-test was used to test all the seven (7) null hypotheses developed. The findings from the study established, significant difference between the influence of Social Studies learning activities/ experiences on federal and state undergraduate students in the acquisition and exhibition of knowledge on religious tolerance and social justice for national integration. However, significant difference was not found between the influence of Social Studies curriculum contents, learning objectives and learning experiences/activities on federal and state undergraduate students in the acquisition and exhibition of knowledge on self reliance, integrity, discipline, dignity of labour and patriotism for national integration in North-west geo-political zone, Nigeria. Based on the findings from this study, the researcher recommended that, State Governments should enact admission policy that will accommodate non- indigenes of different religious groups to study in state owned institutions of higher learning across the North-west geopolitical zone. This will promote religious tolerance as well as provide fertile ground for ethnic and religious understanding; The NERDC and other stakeholders in curriculum development should integrate entrepreneurial aspect at undergraduate Social Studies curriculum and training by promoting learning by discovery method, experiential learning, and participatory approach, through interactive environments that fosters positive attitudes, values and skills receptive to self reliance among others.en_US
