Effect of Concept Mapping Strategy on Achievement in Chemistry of IX Graders in Relation To Gender
Dr. Jaya Chawla
Abstract: The study was carried out to investigate the effect of teaching through Concept mapping on the achievement in Chemistry in relation to gender. Sample of the study consisted of 236 (118 experimental group and 118 controlled group) IX class students from four Government schools of Ludhiana city. Experimental group was exposed to Concept mapping method and the controlled group was exposed to Conventional method (lecture and discussion). Mixed group intelligence test (MGTI) by Mehrotra (2008) was used to match the groups. Achievement test in Chemistry (developed and standardized by the investigator) was used as tool for data collection. The results of the study showed that achievement in Chemistry of the group taught by Concept mapping was significantly more as compared to group taught by Conventional method. It was also found that boys and girls of experimental group do not differ in their achievement in Chemistry.
