Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the influence of teaching methods on students’ performance in cultural and creative arts. The research design for this study was quasi-experimental. The target population comprised of 90 Junior Secondary three (JS3) students from two public coeducational secondary schools in Idemili North Local Government Area (LGA) of Anambra State as on 2020/2021 academic session. A sample of 40 JS3 students was randomly drawn from the two schools and was used in the study. The instrument for data collection was Test of Achievement in Cultural and Creative Arts for Junior Secondary (TACCAJS) developed by the researchers. The collected data were analyzed with t–test using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 25.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) tested at 0.05 level of significance. The result revealed that there was a significant variation between students’ achievement in cultural and creative arts (p = 0.000) in favour of students exposed to the teaching methods. But, there was no significant variation between students’ achievement in cultural and creative arts, based on gender (p = 0.086, 0.405). Hence, it was concluded that demonstration with discussion and questioning teaching methods are more effective in inculcating knowledge to students especially, in the field of cultural and creative arts.
