A Phenomenological Analysis of Social Studies Students' Lived Experiences Teachers: Building Concepts of Democratic Citizenship and Education

The purpose of the study was to explore how social studies teachers conceptualised democracy, developed ideas about democratic citizenship and implemented their perspectives and experiences into teaching. The study used a phenomenological approach to qualitative research design. Total 528 students and 50 teachers were selected using a purposive sampling method with data analysed by Moustakas’s transcendental approach. The participants conceptualised democracy as a political system, civic participation and influence of government decision-making. They developed ideas about democratic citizenship from multiple sources, such as family members, networking, citizenship projects, professional development training, political engagement, travel, and involvement in community services. Teachers implemented their perspectives by utilising experiential learning, incorporating student’s ideas into teaching methods and employing technology. Other findings that emerged included the educator’s inadequate preparation of instructional strategies and student’s apathetic responses to learning about the democratic process. This study reveals the need for educators, teachers, and policymakers to collaborate to develop instructional practices, incorporate experiential learning experiences and improve social studies curricula to promote student engagement.

Maps as instructional resources and scholarly performance of junior secondary school students in social studies

PurposeThe purpose of the research was to, first, investigate if the use of maps as instructional resources will boost scholarly performance and, second, examine if gender can moderate the effect of map usage on scholarly performance.Design/methodology/approachThe study was a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test. A sample of 260 JSS II Students from 8 schools were selected through the purposive sampling technique. A Social Studies Scholarly Performance Test (SSSPT) with a reliability index of 0.79 was the instrument for data collection. The students were assigned into two groups: control and experimental. Both groups were pre-tested taught for a timeline of six weeks and thereafter post-tested.FindingsThe study reported a significant increase in the scholarly performance of students taught with maps; a significant difference occurred in the scholarly performance of both groups and gender did not moderate the effect of maps.Research limitations/implicationsThe social studies teachers used for the study did not have previous knowledge or map skills; this could have affected the outcome. Secondly, the treatment took place for just six weeks, and the time allotted for social studies in the school timetable was used. This may not have given the students enough time to master map interpretation.Practical implicationsA major implication of the study is that results will show that maps can promote the scholarly performance of students in social studies. Secondly, the fact that gender did not moderate the effect of maps suggests that maps are gender-friendly.Social implicationsThe results of the study, if implemented, would make social studies teachers to become inventive and resourceful in the use of maps as instructional resources for junior secondary students' scholarly performance in social studies without taking gender into consideration.Originality/valueThis study is a product of the researcher’s doctoral thesis; therefore, it is original and has value. The results are the product of a painstaking study carried out by the author for a period of three years on the effect of instructional resources on social studies students’ scholarly performance. Maps were one of the instructional resources studied for the award of a Ph.D. degree.

The Effect of Transactional Leadership on Academic Performance of Primary School Pupils in Social Studies in Munkunyu Sub County Kasese District

The Relationship Between Self Efficacy, Learning Styles to the Learning Activeness of Prospective Teachers

Active learning is a basic element that must be fulfilled to support the success of the learning process. However, student learning activeness has not emerged and the level of student self-efficacy is low and learning styles are varied. This study aims to analyze the relationship between self-efficacy and learning styles on student learning activeness. The research method used is descriptive quantitative with a survey approach. The subjects in this study were social studies students in grades 4A and 4B, totaling 105 students. The data collection technique used is a questionnaire. While the data analysis technique uses the reliability test for normality test, T test, F test and hypothesis test. The results showed that there was a positive relationship between variables seen from the output on the T test and F test with a significance value of (2-tailed) 0.00 <0.05, so it can be concluded that there is a positive relationship between self-efficacy and learning style in student learning activity.
