Abstract

A new order crept into all walks of lives during the Covid-19 pandemic with its enduring impacts on modes of learning. Consequently, the conventional four-walled learning was pulled down, hence, the utilisation of various e-social platforms traditionally meant for social networking. Thus, this study adopts ex-post factor research design to ascertain the utilisation of some e-social platforms by students during and post Covid-19 lockdown. A questionnaire on utilisation of e-social platforms for learning of biology concepts (QUe-SPLBC) was administered on 80 randomly sampled 300 level biology education students who were in 100 level shortly prior the lockdown in the year 2020. The findings showed that unlike what the e-social platforms were used for prior the lockdown, students have integrated these platforms into their learning process. Hence, this study implies that biology lecturers (science educators alike) should brace up for the challenges in the e-social platforms in order to harness the inherent opportunities therein to further enhance learning beyond the four walls
