Whatsapp groups discussion strategies on university students’
performance in Computer Education Course. The quasi-experimental
pre-test post-test design was adopted and the population comprised
400 level undergraduate students with a sample size of 86 students
who were randomly assigned into intact classes. The instrument for
data collection was a 20-item researcher-made performance test titled:
Computer Education Performance Test (CEPT). Face and content
validity were done by experts in Curriculum Studies and Educational
technology as well as Measurement and Evaluation while a pilot
testing was adopted for the reliability which yielded a coefficient of
0.82 using Kuder-Richardson 21. The mean and standard deviation
were conducted to answer the research questions while Analysis of
Covariance (ANCOVA) as well as Post-Hoc were used to test
hypotheses. Findings showed that the Google Classroom Discussion
Strategy had the most effect on students’ performance followed by
WhatsApp Group Discussion Strategy and finally Face-to-Face
method.
