<![CDATA[To establish the accuracy and usability of the instructional model, it must be verified by experts in the area of the subject content. The model of the human excretory system (MHES) has to be examined and verified by a qualified Biology education expert to ascertain its accuracy while the usability has to be verified by an educational technology expert. Hence, it is needed to determine the experts’ validation of MHES before it can be used to teach a Biology concept. Descriptive research of the survey type was adopted for this study. The sample for this study comprised three educational technology experts from the Department of Educational Technology and three Biology education experts from the Department of Science Education, University of Ilorin, Nigeria. Two instruments were developed for the study: Educational Technology Experts’ Rating Scale and Biology Education Experts’ Rating Scale. Descriptive statistics of the mean score and standard deviation were used to analyze the research questions. The findings of this study revealed the experts’ overall assessment of the effectiveness of the model for instruction was high, suitable, and found to be adequate. Based on the findings of this study, it is concluded that the developed MHES can be used to enhance Biology students’ academic performance on the topic human excretory system]]>

<![CDATA[This study investigated the undergraduates’ level of acceptance and utilization of Moodle platform for learning at the University of Ilorin. This study adopted descriptive research of the survey type. A random sampling technique was used to select two hundred (200) undergraduates who formed the sample size for this study. The data obtained through the questionnaire was subjected to both descriptive and inferential statistics. Frequency counts and means score was used to answer the research questions, ANOVA was used to test hypothesis one while a t-test was used to test hypothesis two. The findings of this study were: the Undergraduates’ level of acceptance of Moodle platform for learning is negative with a grand mean score less than the benchmark [2.18 2.45]; the Undergraduates’ level of utilization of Moodle platform for learning is negative with the grand mean score less than the benchmark [2.32 2.45]; there was a significant difference in the undergraduates’ level of acceptance of Moodle platform for learning based on the area of specialization [p= .000 0.05]; and there was a significant difference between male and female Undergraduates level of utilization of Moodle platform for learning [p= .026 0.05]. The study concluded that Moodle platform with so many existing features and future potential uses is not broadly accepted and utilized in many universities. It is recommended among others that Universities should implement a platform that supports online learning activities so that it makes it easier for lecturers to engage students virtually and delves further into the obstacles faced by students in online learning activities.]]>

<![CDATA[This study is to investigate the effect of the Mobile Application developed on the academic performance of undergraduates in computer science at the University of Ilorin, Nigeria. Quasi-experimental design of pre-test, post-test non-randomized control group design was used to compare the performance of students who were exposed to Mobile Applications to learn Computer Science concepts and those who were taught through conventional methods. The computer science performance test (CSPT) was administered to the control and experimental groups as pretest and posttest. The sample size was chosen at random from 200 students. The instruments developed are mobile applications (DMP) and CSPT. CSPT was tested and a reliability coefficient of 0.86 was obtained using the Kuder Richardson KR-20. Two research questions and one hypothesis were formulated. The findings show that the experimental group is better than the control group with an average difference of 1.59. Male students did better than female students in the experimental group. There was no significant difference in the performance of male and female students in the two groups. This study concludes that the mobile application has a positive effect on student academic achievement. It is recommended, among other things, that University lecturers should take advantage of the potential of mobile technology applications in teaching.]]>

<![CDATA[Mobile learning brought a great benefit to education through, training at any time; training at the place; learner-centered content; and development of teaching and learning. Smartphones and similar mobile devices have changed the way individuals interact with technology and with each other. To ascertain the usability of the instructional mobile application, it must be verified by experts in the area of the subject content. Hence, it is needed to determine the experts’ validation of the developed mathematics mobile application before it can be used for instructional purposes. Two instruments were used for the validation process: Primary Education Lecturers’ Rating Scale and Primary School Teachers’ Rating Scale. Percentage score and mean were used to answer research questions. The percentage score of the rating for the validation of the developed mathematics mobile application by the six Experts shows that the mobile application satisfied the required standard in the field of primary education. The developed mathematics mobile application has the potential to make teaching and learning basic mathematics easy and interesting. The study revealed that teachers can teach the concept of mathematics to primary school pupils either individually or collaboratively through effective utilization of the mobile application. It was recommended that primary educators should employ a mobile application strategy for teaching those abstract and difficult concepts in mathematics.]]>

<![CDATA[The 21st-century world is powered by technology. The education of any nation is to empower the citizens to fit successfully into society. The 21st-century world is ruled by information, only individuals with the ability and skills to utilize modern digital tools to access and generate information and knowledge can perform in the global work atmosphere. The technologies of today have completely changed the learning environment. People in the 21st century live in a technology and media-suffused environment, marked by access to an abundance of information, rapid changes in technology tools. To be effective in the 21st century, an individual must be able to exhibit a range of functional and critical thinking skills related to information, media, and technology. Technology has become more powerful and universal and this has provided educators with valuable tools to support learning. The utilization of technological devices in education has become familiar with the fast advance of technology in the 21st century. We can see a high potential particularly in technical tools which will develop the imagination and creative thinking of students. There is a need of implementing the content of the curriculum through robotic devices. In the light of this view, this study shows the construction process of robotic instructional devices to teach aspects of Auto Mechanic in Nigeria basic schools.]]>

<![CDATA[Construction involves the translation of a design into reality, this involves a systematic and conscientious process of bringing together or assembling diverse elements or parts to form a whole. Therefore, special care has to be taken during construction as the design intentions must be achieved. The construction of a robotic instructional model is a task that can be engaged by an expert in the area of Instructional Technology. It requires several practices and devotion to the principles and use of elements of design. Also, the appropriate use of relevant tools, equipment, and tools is indispensable. However, for an interested individual, skills for model construction can be acquired by first having an adequate observational view of the real objects to get familiar with the forms and features of the object. Robotic instructional devices can exhibit gestures and body movements so they could be used by the teacher to explain a concept. Robots can create an interactive and engaging learning experience. The important factors that influence whether the robot is likely to be useful in teaching include usability and the availability of appropriate learning activities and content. There is a need of implementing some content of the curriculum through robotic devices. In the light of this view, this study shows the detailed experimental procedure for the construction process of robotic devices to teach an aspect of Auto Mechanic in Nigerian basic schools.]]>
