Aims: The method of teaching Chemistry in Nigerian classrooms has given it an image of being a subject with a body of abstract ideas, giving room for manifestation of anxiety towards the subject at the secondary school level. It is within this context that this study investigated the impact of 5E and PDEODE Learning Models on students' anxiety towards senior secondary Chemistry. Study Design: Quasi experimental pre-test-post-test-control group design was used by the researchers to carry out the study.
The role of women in national development cannot be over-emphasized. Also, the place of science andtechnology is central to national advancement. No doubt, a country’s level of Scientific andTechnological advancement dictates the life style and future of her citizenry. This assertion madeWambusu (2005) to opine that science-led development is one of the major strategies in the waragainst what seems to be the African region’s endless hunger, poverty and ill-health. In addition,increased focus on formal and informal education, new technology, empowerment of women, gender,and sustainable development will undoubtedly bring the developing world closer to the developed worldand reduce the huge economic gap (Naugah 2003).
