ABSTRACT

This study used on innovative strategy of enhanced concept mapping with the use of instructional materials as a frame of reference for effective teaching and learning of social studies. The study was carried out in two phases, the survey and experimental phases.
The survey was a base line study which examined the types and level of use of instructional materials that are available in schools before these materials were used to enhance the concept Mapping strategy. The experimental phase investigated the extent to which the Enhanced concept mapping strategy (ECMS) influenced performance of students in some social studies concepts by assessing the strategy against three other strategies concept mapping strategy (CMS), use of instructional materials (IM) and the commonly used lecture methods, which served as the control condition. The influences of gender and schools location on the performance of students taught with the enhanced concept mapping strategy were also verified.
