Various tools may be used in finding out the outcomes of these students. These includes tests, assignments, projects, observations interview and questionnaire.

• STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

It has been observed that in traditional method of teaching provides more or less on a particular topic been taught in various classes of the same level and this brings about different importation of knowledge in the student regarding the topic, while virtual classroom method of teaching helps the students in learning at their own pace or convenient time thereby giving room for thorough reading and assimilation of the lesson.

Therefore, there is need to carry out a research on the comparative study of virtual classroom and traditional classroom method of teaching.

• PURPOSE OF THE STUDY

The purpose of the study is to ascertain whether the traditional classroom should be used for teaching and learning in order to achieve the desire level of performance in students or rather to adapt to the virtual classroom system of teaching and learning.

• SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

The finding from this study will provide better information on best classroom situation for teaching and learning so that students would learn at the same pace without any students being left out. At the end of the study, it will also bring convenience for the teachers.

• RESEARCH QUESTIONS

• Is traditional classroom method of teaching suitable in achieving better academic performance in students?
• Should virtual classroom be adopted in secondary schools?
• Should virtual classroom be preferred to traditional classroom in achieving academic performance of students?
  • SCOPE OF THE STUDY

The study will be limited to two groups of students. 20 (twenty)students in group A will be taught in the traditional classroom method of teaching and another 20 (twenty) students in group B will be taught in the virtual classroom.

At the end, evaluation will be carried out of the performance of the students in the stated groups above. (A case study of students in federal college of education model secondary school, Abeokuta).
