Assessment of Senior Secondary School Student?s Acquisition of Science Process Skills in Volumetric Analysis in Ondo State, Nigeria

摘要

This study assessed the extent of senior secondary school student s acquisition of science processskills in volumetric analysis in Ondo State, Nigeria. Two research questions and one null hypothesis guidedthe study. The study adopted a descriptive survey design. A sample of 240 students was used for the study. Theinstrument used for data collection was a 20-item rating scale. The research questions were answered usingmeans while the hypothesis was tested using t-test statistic. The findings revealed that the level of seniorsecondary school student?s acquisition of science process skills in volumetric analysis is low. Also, it wasrevealed that senior secondary school male students demonstrated high level of science process skillsacquisition in volumetric analysis than female students. The need for training chemistry teachers on scienceprocess skills is recommended in order to make their teaching more practical oriented.
