Harmonizing Science: Crafting Innovative Audio Tutorials for Lower Secondary Education

Author(s): Rekha K and Dr. S Thangarajathi

Abstract:

This study explores the development and impact of audio tutorials for 6th-grade science concepts, emphasizing the significance of education for individual growth and societal advancement. It aims to establish a robust audio tutorial system and assess its effects on content knowledge, observation skills, learning progress, and problem-solving confidence among 6th-grade students, considering demographic factors like school type, locality, gender, and parental education. The study's objectives focus on measuring the impact of audio tutorials on content knowledge and their correlation with concentration and observation skill enhancement in this student cohort. The research methodology involves identifying relevant science concepts, creating audio tutorials, and collecting student feedback, with a detailed analysis considering various variables using statistical techniques. The study's findings reveal the crucial influence of school type and parental education on audio tutorial development, stressing the need to tailor resources for private school students and those with graduate parents while extending accessibility to urban areas. Gender, on the other hand, does not significantly impact audio tutorial development, suggesting their universal benefit. In terms of content knowledge and concentration/observation skills development, demographic factors exert minimal influence, highlighting a consistent learning experience. However, parental education emerges as a critical determinant of learning progress and problem-solving confidence, favoring students with graduate parents.
