Effects Of Problem Solving Strategy On Retention In Reading Comprehension
ABSTRACT
The study investigated the effects of problem
solving strategy on Retention in Reading Comprehension when compared to a
control group taught with read-re-read approach. The design of the Study was a quasi- non randomized Pre-test,
posttest control group design. The population of the Study was 6001 SS1
students while the sample were 179 students from two coeducation secondary
schools purposively selected for the Study. Experimental group had 83 students
while the control group had 96 students all in their intact classes. The
instrument for data collection was a reading Comprehension Achievement Test
which was duly validated by experts. The reliability was established using kuder Richardson formula (KR 20) and it was 0.81.one research question and one Hypothesis guided the
Study. Mean and standard deviation were used to answer the research questions
while ANCOVA was used to test the Hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance. The
study revealed that there was a significant difference in the retention of
students taught reading comprehension with problem-solving strategy and that of
those taught same contents with the conventional read, reread method. One of
the recommendations was that teachers should use problem solving strategy method in
teaching students in order to help them learn better and to retain learnt
contents.
