...CHAPTER ONE 1.0 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY Attitude as a concept is concerned with an individual way of thinking, acting and behaving. It has very serious implications for the learner, the teacher, the immediate social group with which the individual learner relates and the entire school system. Attitudes are formed as a result of some kind of learning experiences. They may also be learned simply by following the example of opinion of parent, teacher or friend., this is mimicry or imitation, which also has a part to play in the teaching and learning situation. In this respect, the learner draws from his teacher’s education to inform his own attitude which may likely affect his earning outcomes. In his observational theory, Bandura (1971) demonstrated that behavior are acquire by watching another (the model, teacher parent, monitor, friend) that performs the behavior. The model display it and the learner observes and tries to imitate it. Teachers are invariably, role models whose behaviours are easily copied by students. What teachers like or dislike, appreciate and how they feel about their learning or studies could have a significant effect on their students. Unfortunately, however, many teacher seldom realize that how they teach how they behave and how they interact with students can be more paramount than what they interact with students can be attitudes directly what they teach. In a nut shell, teachers’ attitudes directly affect students’ attitudes. Teachers attitude...

It is a necessity for every citizen as it helps achieve true independence. It opens them up to new opportunities in their societies. Opening up new doors closed to them before. They are now also more able to make intelligent decisions as members of their societies when it comes to social issues and problems. So it is a very big problem when the members of the educational system itself are the ones experiencing difficulties in doing their duties. One of the more obvious areas that has suffered greatly is in the field of Science. It is quite obvious to anyone with just a simple ocular inspection that it is suffering from a lack of proper equipment and other things necessary in its delivery. That and also the need of qualified teachers to teach those subjects since Science...

...CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Background to the Problem Education has been very important through the ages and it can be defined as an organized and sustained instruction designed to communicate a combination of knowledge, skill and understanding valuables for all activities of life. Numerous groups during this century have identified what they believe the goals of education should be. One of the most widely cited reports is that of the commission on the reorganization of secondary education which in 1918 stated the goals of education as the seven cardinal principles: health, command of fundamental processes, worthy home membership, vocation, citizenship, worthy use of leisure and ethical conduct. Although neither science nor any of the other school subjects was included as one of the seven principles, the role and importance of science in achieving the seven cardinal principles is obvious. The world is fast becoming scientific in thinking and behaviors that without good knowledge of science, it might be difficult for people to adequately function in it. The purpose of exposing children to science instruction right from primary school level is not necessarily to turn them into scientist per se but to provide favorable scientific attitudes of ‘finding out’ and ‘hands-on‘ and to enable them raise questions about things that intrigue them. In a study on the impact of science on the society, Bertrand & Russell (1952) have shown that our time is an age of science. Science...

CHAPTER CONTENTS Energy Flow and Chemical Cycling in the Biosphere 92 Cellular Respiration: Aerobic Harvest of Food Energy 94 Fermentation: Anaerobic Harvest of Food Energy 101 CHAPTER THREAD Aerobic versus Anaerobic Lifestyles BIOLOGY AND SOCIETY Marathoners versus Sprinters THE PROCESS OF SCIENCE What Causes Muscle Burn? EVOLUTION CONNECTION Life before and after Oxygen 91 102 103 Aerobic versus Anaerobic Lifestyles BIOLOGY AND SOCIETY Marathoners versus Sprinters Track-and-field athletes usually have a favorite event in which they excel. Some runners specialize in sprints of 100 or 200 meters. Others excel at longer races of 1,500, 5,000, or even 10,000 m. It is unusual to find a runner who competes equally well in both 100-m and 10,000-m races; most runners are more comfortable running races of particular lengths. It turns out that there is a biological basis for such preferences. The muscles that move our legs contain two main types of muscle fibers: slow-twitch and fast-twitch. Slow-twitch muscle fibers can contract many times over a longer period but don’t generate a lot of quick power for the body. They perform better in endurance exercises requiring slow, steady muscle activity, such as marathons. Fast-twitch muscle fibers can contract more quickly and powerfully than slow-twitch fibers but also...

...CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study In this particular area of research, I wish to study transformation which plays an important role in pure and applied mathematics. This class of transformation is an integral transformation called the Laplace transform. It is very effective in the study of initial value problem involving linear differential equation with constant coefficient. Laplace transform was first introduced by a French mathematician called Pierre Simon Marquis de Laplace about 1780’s. This method associated with the isolation of the original problem that is function ƒ(t) of a real variable and some function ƒ(s) of a complex variable so that the ordinary differential equation for the function ƒ(t) is transformed into an algebraic equation for ƒ(s) which in most cases can readily be solved. The solution of the original differential equation can be arrived at by obtaining the inverse transformation. The transformation and its inverse can be derived by consulting already prepared table of transform. This method is particularly useful in the solution of differential equation and has more application in various fields of technology e.g. electrical network, mechanical vibrations, structural problems, control systems. Meanwhile in this research work, I shall look into the Laplace transform, the properties of the Laplace transform and the use of this technique in solving delay differential equation will be looked into. 1.2 Statement of the Problem ...
