Abstract

The importance of civic education in the curriculum of secondary education cannot be over-emphasized. In particular, students at that level of formative development are equipped with critical skills and knowledge for effective social integration. This underscores the need for this study that investigated the effects of utilizing visual information aids in making the teaching of civic education effective in the school, Three research questions that were turned in the hypotheses guided the investigation. The experimental research design was adopted for the study that had all the senior secondary school students in Enugu Education zone as target population. All the l 10 SS2A and SS2B students in secondary schools in Enugu Education zone constituted the experimental and control samples respectively, The two groups were taught two (2) topics: “Citizenship” and “Social Responsibilities” with visual information aids (videos) for five(3) weeks after which their performance was evaluated with a 30-item objective test, The performance scores of the students in the two groups was analysed using the ANCOVA statistics.
