dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the Impact of Animated-Media Strategy on Achievement, Retention and Interest among Secondary School Geography Students in Weather Concepts; Katsina state, Nigeria. The study has four research objectives, answered four research questions and tested four null hypotheses. The study was quasi experimental with pretest, posttest, post-posttest design. Weather Concepts Achievements Test (WCAT) and Weather Concepts Interest Questionnaire were developed and administered to 116 randomly selected students from a population of 699. The instruments were validated and the reliability coefficients of WCAT and WCIQ were established at r = 0.89 and r =0.9 respectively. Experimental group was taught using Animated-media strategy while the control group was taught using lecture method. Research questions were analyzed descriptively using means and standard deviations, ranks and sum of ranks. Null hypotheses were verified at P ≤ 0.05 levels using t-tests and Mann-Whitney U-test. Results revealed significant difference in the academic achievement of subjects exposed to the animated media strategy and those taught using lecture. There were also significant differences in the retention and interest of subjects exposed to the same strategy and those taught using lecture method. Subject in the experimental group developed a significantly high positive interest than subjects in the control group. The study revealed no significant difference in the academic achievement of male and female students exposed to animated-media strategy. From the findings of the study, it was recommended among others, the need for Federal and State Ministries of Education to provide computers and projectors for teachers to facilitate their teaching with animations. The training and re-training of teachers on ICT was also recommended.en_US
