Abstract
This study i n v e s t i g a t e d the relative
i n s t r u c t i o n a l values and effectiveness of four
modes of i n s t r u c t i o n namely: Animated cartoon
film, S t a t i c cartoon p i c t u r e s , Audiotape and
Verbal Lecture p r e s e n t a t i o n in communicating a
f o l k l o r e to c h i l d r e n i n elementary three in Zaria
s c h o o l s . It was aimed at determining the mode
t h a t w i l l impart more knowledge or t h a t w i l l r e s u lt
in more knowledge g a i n.
To achieve t h i s objective pupils in elementary
t h r e e in three schools in Zaria were sampled. A
research instrument was developed and used in
conducting the experiment. The instruments
i n c l u d e s , carefully prepared lesson, i n s t r u c t i o n al
o b j e c t i v e s , objective t e s t , Animated film, S t a t ic
p i c t u r e and Audiotape c a s s e t t e . The s t a t i s t i c a l
design used was the p r e t e s t and p o s t t e s t which
was then analysed using one-way analysis of
variance (ANOVA) technique and c h a r t.
vi
Based on the analysis of data for t h i s study
the following findings are pertinent:
1. All the four modes of instruction used for
t h i s study contributed to mastery of the
content.
2. In the present circumstances, animated
cartoon film proved to be "better than the
other modes of instruction in teaching
folklore to elementary three pupils.
3. Only minor difference exist among the other
three modes of instruction in terms of t h e ir
i n s t r u c t i o n a l potency.
The findings of t h i s study have shown that
the graphic a r t i s t as a communicator has an
important role to play in the educational s e t t i n g.
This is so because the use of animated and s t a t ic
signs to communicate ideas whether in the school
setting or for social i n s t r u c t i o n is the
preoccupation of the graphic a r t i s t . The general
conclusion of this study therefore is that
systematic effort should he made to use graphic
s k i l l s and techniques to introduce more symbolism
as against verbalism in our communication system.
