from two purposively selected schools in Lagos State education district V, ojo
zone participated in the study. The Students Achievement Test in Civic
Education (SATICE) which had a reliability coefficient of 0.73 was the
instrument used to collect the quantitative data. Treatment lasted three weeks
after the conduct of the pretest, the experimental group (42) was exposed to elearning activities and the control group (46) was taught using the traditional
lecture method. One-way ANCOVA was used to analyse the data. The result
revealed that the experimental group outperformed the control group. Within
the limitations of the study, we concluded that E-Learning activities is capable
of promoting meaningful learning in chemistry. Implications of the study were
highlighted.
