Research respondents

The population of the study is composed of 200 highschool students from 7th to 10th grade
classes in Tuyan National Highschool and 25 highschool teachers. In reference to Uzoagulu's sample size
as cited in Alawa and Dijech which states that when a defined population is less than 1,000, 20 percent
could be used to reduce sampling error, 10 percent for 5,000 and 5 percent for 10,000 so, 20 percent
from 200 students and 25 highschool teachers are considered in this study. Therefore, the sample of this
study is 40 which is equal to 20 percent of the entire population.
 The table belows shows the number of students who make the population according their classes.

Data gathering procedure

The researcher will be using the library research and internet research thus would give a
further knowledge and gain massive information.

The study had undergone scrupulous phases which defined the ethical standard of this
research such as: (1) Request letter to conduct study,(2) Pretest procedure,(3) Treatment
procedure,(4) Post-test procedure,(5) Interpreting data to an appropriate statistical computation
and(6) Reports for finding, conclusions and recommendations.

Phase 1: Transmittal letter: A letter of request is sent to the school principal asking
permission to conduct the study within the school. It further Stated the intention to use
selected Grade 7 to Grade 10 students as the research respondents. When it is approve, other

were collected up to the time fix out of the 45 questionnaire that were distributed 45 were also
collected, which is equals to a hundred percent of all copies given.
