ASSESSMENT OF THE ROLES OF DIGITAL INNOVATIVE PRACTICES ON SUSTAINABLE LEARNING IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN RURAL AREAS OF ANAMBRA STATE

Abstract

This study will assess the roles of digital innovative practices on sustainable learning in secondary schools in rural areas of Anambra State. The study will be guided by three research questions. The study will employ a descriptive survey research design. The population will consist of 51,444 students enrolled in public secondary schools in Anambra State. Taro Yamene’s formula will be used to determine a sample size of 397. The instrument for data collection will be a self-developed questionnaire organized into four clusters, each addressing one research question. Each cluster will have eight (8) items, thereby making it a total of 24 questionnaire items. The instrument will use a 4-point rating scale: Strongly Agree (4), Agree (3), Disagree (2) and Strongly Disagree (1). Three research experts will validate the instrument, while its internal consistency will be determined using Cronbach’s Alpha based on a trial test involving 20 students in public secondary schools in Enugu State. Mean and standard deviation will be used to analyze data related to the research questions.
