Abstract

 

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of group method on the teaching of vocabulary development in senior secondary schools with focus on selected schools in Ago-Iwoye. The study adopted quasi-experimental pre-test/posttest research design. A sample of 60 English Language students were grouped into two (Control group and Experimental group) and they were taught vocabulary development using lecture method and group method. However, the students in the group methods were further divided into 6 groups of 5 person per group. Vocabulary Achievement Test (VAT) was used to observe the vocabulary improvement of the students of the control and experimental group. After treatment of results were collected and analysed by inferential statistics of mean, standard deviation and one-way ANCOVA. The results of the study revealed that there was no significant difference in the vocabulary development of male and female students exposed to group method. The implication of this is that male and female performance of students does not differ. Findings showed that there was significant difference in vocabulary development of students exposed to group method and those who were not. It was concluded that students exposed to group method performed better that students exposed to lecture method, and group method was effectiveness in improving students’ vocabulary. It is therefore recommended that English Language teachers should adopt group method in involving students at the course of teaching in the classroom.
