ABSTRACT
The study focused on the effect of smart board and PowerPoint instructional tools on undergraduate physics students’ achievement and motivation in Imo State. The study employed quasi experimental design. The content of lecturing covers the mechanics taught at year one. One hundred and forty two (142) year one students (eighty seven (87) males and fifty five (55) females) formed the sample of the study out of a population of six hundred and sixty eight (668) students in the degree awarding government owned institution in Imo State 2018/2019 session. Eight research questions and ten null hypotheses tested at 0.05 level of significance guided the study. Two instruments were used for data collection are the Physics Achievement Test (PAT) and Motivation Scale (MS). Two lesson plans- software and hard lesson plans. The instruments and the lesson plans were face and content validated by experts. The reliability of PAT was established using Kuder Richardson formula 20(KR-20). Data were analyzed using mean and standard deviation while the null hypotheses were tested at 0.05 significant levels using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). Based on the findings of the study, it was concluded that smart board and PowerPoint usage was significantly more effective in promoting students’ achievement in physics than conventional lecture method. Hence Lecturers should use smart board and PowerPoint in teaching physics since this study has shown that meaningful learning and desired knowledge are acquired by using this technology, irrespective of the students’ gender.
