Abstract :
The study investigated the effect of brain-based adaptive learning strategy on academic competence of students with learning disability. The study adopted a quasi experimental non-equivalent control group, pretest-posttest research design. The population was all the 1,242 students in senior secondary two (SS11) in Igbo-etiti LGA in Nsukka urban Education Zone, Enugu State, Nigeria. The sample was 86 (41 males and 45 females) SS11 students with dyslexia learning disability composed from two public schools that were purposively sampled from the study area. Two instruments were used for the study. They are 32-item Academic Competence Evaluation Scale (ACES) adapted from DiPerna and Elliott (2000) and a 20-item test named Brain-based Learning Strategy Test (BLST)(researcher constructed). The instruments were validated by two experts in educational psychology and one in measurement and evaluation all in Faculty of Education, University of Nigeria, Nsukka. It was trial tested using cronbach alpha procedure and reliability coefficient of the ACES was 0.87 while that of the BLST test items was 0.82. High mean rating indicates that the academic competence is on the high side. Mean and standard deviation were used to answer the research questions and the hypotheses were tested using the Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) at 0.05 level of significance. It was found that brain-based adaptive learning had a significant effected on the academic competence of students with DLD and that gender has no significant influence on academic competence of students with DLD exposed to it. Based on the findings of this study, it was recommended among others that government, school administrators, educators, curriculum planners and school teachers should put concerted effort to adopt learning intervention programme such as Brain-based Learning Strategy that can enhance the academic competence of students with learning disability.
