Use of library resources, study habit and science achievement of junior secondary school students

Abstract

E. M. Aanu and R. A. Olatoye

This study investigated combined and relative influences of use of library resources and study habit on science achievement of the junior secondary school students in Ogun State, Nigeria. Three hundred and sixty (360) students randomly selected from twelve secondary schools in Ogun State participated in the study. Three instruments were designed and used for data collection. Use of library resources and study habit combined together to significantly influence science achievement (R Square = 0.061, p<0.05). There is no significant difference between male and female students’ use of library resources, study habit and science achievement. The school counsellors should train students on effective study techniques in order to foster science achievement.
