Culturo-Techno-Contextual Approach
Despite years of educational reform, systemic barriers in science education across many African contexts continue to limit equitable learning opportunities, underscoring the need for culturally grounded innovations such as the Culturo-Techno-Contextual Approach (CTCA). Grounded in Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory and culturally relevant pedagogy, this study examined the impact of CTCA on students’ academic performance in genetics. A quasi-experime…
Integrating culture and context
With the increasing world reliance on digital technologies, being prepared with a good grounding in computer networking through culturally responsive and context-relevant practices will be key to students’ academic success. The study investigated the potency of the culturo-techno-contextual approach in improving students’ meaningful learning of computer networking. The study employed a quasi-experimental research design with a total of 111 junior…
Bridging culture and science
As science educators seek innovative methods to engage students, the Culturo-Techno-Contextual Approach (CTCA) has emerged as a promising strategy, particularly for African students. CTCA is a culturally responsive teaching method that integrates culture, technology, and locational context, making science more relatable and meaningful. We assessed CTCA’s effectiveness in enhancing critical thinking in biology among 121 senior secondary students i…
Mitigating difficulty in Computer studies through Culturo-Techno-Contextual Approach
This study investigates the effectiveness of a culturo-techno-contextual approach (CTCA) in teaching flowcharts and algorithms to junior secondary school students. Despite their importance in programming, these concepts are often difficult for students to grasp. The study involved 196 students (average age 12) who were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received CTCA instruction, while the control group received …
Testing the potency of ethnoscience instruction on biology students’ critical thinking ability
The study investigated the potency of ethnoscience instruction on the critical thinking ability of biology students. The study employed a quasi-experimental research design, with a total of 113 senior secondary school two (the equivalent of grade 11) students from two schools in educational district V of Lagos State, Nigeria. All students in the two sample schools used for the experimental and control groups took a pretest before treatment, a pos…
Fostering positive instruction of software development cycle through a culturally responsive pedagogy
Application/Software development, a component of ICT is an important skill needed to help address sustainability given its high societal leverage. On recognizing the complexity of understanding software development cycle and putting into consideration the technicalities involved in developing software to solve organizational problems, there is a dire need to employ innovative pedagogy into classroom learning in more creative ways to. This study i…
A cultural, technological, and contextual pedagogy to enhance retention of biology concepts
This study examined the impact of a pedagogy that is culturally influenced and laced with technological and contextual elements known as the culturo-techno-contextual approach (CTCA) on promoting knowledge retention of biology concepts. The research design was mixed methods, and the sample consisted of 88 senior secondary school II students selected from two Lagos State educational district V schools in Nigeria. Quantitative data was collected us…
The potency of culture, technology, and context in a biology classroom
Reducing anxiety and promoting meaningful learning of biology concepts through a culturally sensitive and context-specific instructional method
This study aimed to examine the influence of a culturally adapted and context-specific technique of instruction called the culturo-techno-contextual approach (CTCA) on lowering student anxiety and fostering meaningful learning in difficult biology concepts. A quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test non-equivalent group design was used for this study. Data collected from 88 senior secondary school II (11th grade) biology students in education di…
