摘要：This study determined effects of scaffolding and collaborative instructional approaches
on students’ achievement in Basic Electronics. A quasi-experimental research design
was adopted for the study. The performance of 105 Senior Secondary two (SS 2)
students in Basic Electronics was obtained after being taught with scaffolding and
collaborative instructional approaches using the Basic Electronics Cognitive
Achievement Test (BECAT). Data collected were analyzed using mean and ANCOVA.
Results revealed that a collaborative instructional approach is more effective in
improving student achievement in Basic Electronics than a scaffolding instructional
approach. Also, gender had no significant influence on students’ achievement in Basic
Electronics when taught using scaffolding and collaborative instructional approaches.
It was concluded that the collaborative instructional approach is a viable teaching
method for improving students’ achievement in Basic Electronics. It was recommended
that teachers adopt the collaborative instructional approach for teaching Basic
Electronics.
