This paper examined the upshots of computer-aided and blended teaching strategies on students’ civic attitudes, as well as the confounding effects of cognitive ability and gender. The study adopted the pretest-posttest, control group, quasi-experimental design using 3 × 2 × 3 factorial matrix. Seventy-eight students were selected in six intact classes in rural learning ecologies and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The research instruments utilized were: Students’ Civic Attitudes Questionnaire (r=0.88), Cognitive Ability Test (r=0.72), Computer-aided and Blended Teaching Instructional Programme in Civic Education for experimental groups and Teachers Instructional Guide on Conventional (Class) Lecture Method for the control group. Three research questions were answered. Data was subjected to Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA), Estimated Marginal Means, and Scheffe's Pairwise Comparison. There was a significant effect of treatment on students’ civic attitudes (F(2; 61) = 3.82, p < 0.05; η2 =.10). The students’ taught with computer-aided teaching strategy had higher adjusted attitude mean score (χ̄= 106.02), than the control group (105.61), and the blended teaching strategy group (= 75.73). It was, therefore, recommended that teachers in rural learning ecologies in South Korea should explore the utilities inherent in Information and Communication Technology based strategies to teach civic education concepts.","PeriodicalId":85684,"journal":{"name":"The Eastern anthropologist","volume":"37 1","pages":"170 - 177"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89219113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It causes individuals to meet challenges, take responsibility and become involved in what they are doing. It involves doing careful planning, organizing, controlling and staffing the organizational structure with people who are as competent as possible. Leadership has been considered one of the most important elements affecting organizational performance. This is so because goals and objectives of the organization are accomplished. It has also been the focus of attention of behavioural scientists because the leader has a significant effect on the behaviour, attitudes and performance of employees. So leadership has been studied and researched for a number of years resulting in numerous theories and models. However, all these leadership functions accomplish little if the leaders do not know how to lead people and to understand the human factors in their operations in such a way as to produce results. The paper therefore examined bases and characteristics of a leader, Leadership theories and management techniques. It was then recommended that the school administrator should orchestrate the various leadership styles, strategy development, and school vision, focuses on team building and creates a collective school vision that is clear, compelling and focuses on the needs of all the stakeholders.","PeriodicalId":85684,"journal":{"name":"The Eastern anthropologist","volume":"51 1","pages":"157 - 169"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83456598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the interaction between cardiorespiratory fitness and anthropometric variables remains unclear and needs further investigation. This study assessed the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and anthropometric variables among school-going adolescents in Nigeria. Two hundred and fifty apparently healthy participants ranging from 12 to 20 years of age, who were randomly selected, participated in this study. Height, body weight, and body mass index (BMI) were measured. Cooper’s 12 minutes run/walk test was conducted to assess cardiorespiratory fitness (estimated by maximal oxygen uptake: VO2max). There was a significant correlation betweenVO2max and BMI. In the regression model, weight, height, gender, and BMI accounted for ninety-five percent of the total variance in the participants’ cardiorespiratory fitness. Body weight, height, gender, and BMI were significant predictors of cardiorespiratory fitness in the school-going Nigerian adolescents.","PeriodicalId":85684,"journal":{"name":"The Eastern anthropologist","volume":"22 1","pages":"65 - 72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76049401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It emphasises that becoming a teacher is a process that involves training through mentorship. The study also provides information on the imperative areas of mentoring in order to have an effective teaching and learning during school experience, these area includes preparation of lesson plan, presentation of the lesson, assessment of students outcome, classroom management, maintenance of discipline, understanding administrative procedure, developing professionalism, modelling, feedback to the students, pre-teachers and their subject mastery, involvement in extracurricular activities. The study concludes that the school experience exercise centered on the students is an important component of the teacher education curriculum because it prepares the pre-teacher to become not only a teacher but eventually becoming a mentor. It recommends that institutions should give proper and adequate attention to school experience so that institutions will rely on such experiences as the adequate criteria necessary to be certified as teacher in the chosen field or course of study.","PeriodicalId":85684,"journal":{"name":"The Eastern anthropologist","volume":"31 1","pages":"19 - 26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88872644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
