Impact of Low Cost Teaching Material on Studentscreativity in Chemistry at Secondary Level

Authors : Umar Khitab

Abstract: This study aimed to find out the impact of low cost teaching material on student’ s reativity in chemistry at secondary level. A sample of 60 students was none-randomly selected from class ten on the basis of pre-test and demographic detail from Government Higher School Mian Brangola Dir (Lower) for this study. This was an experimental study. Therefore, two groups, i.e., control and experimental (treatment) group were designed. Each group contained 30 students. A creativity test, developed by Khitab was used as a research tool for the collection of data. The test is comprised of five components, i.e., sensitivity to the problem, fluency, flexibility, originality and elaboration and redefinition and has a reliability coefficient 0.91. The treatment group was lectured t with low cost activities whereas the control group was taught the same topics through traditional method by the researcher himself for 15 days regularly. The topics were selected with the help of the concerned science teachers the 10th class chemistry text book. For analyzing the collected data t-test was used. The result showed that teaching with low cost material is more effective for developing of creative thinking of the students.
