dc.description.abstractThe study investigated the effects of explanations and integration of ideas on secondary school chemistry students’ acquisition of observing and inferring skills in Lagos State of Nigeria, A null hypothesis was tested. It was a quasi-experimental design with the sample size of 200. Three instruments were used in data collection. Data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation and Analysis of Co-variance (ANCOVA). The results showed that integration of Ideas Method (IIM) was most effective, followed by Explanations Method of Teaching (EMT) while Lecture Approach Method (LAM) had the least effect. However, boys out-performed the girls in the observing skill test among all the teaching methods. In addition, boys exposed to IIM out-performed the girls in the inferring skill test but girls taught with EMT and LAM excelled better than boys in the inferring skill test. The study concludes that chemistry teachers should plan lessons with effective pedagogies. Several recommendations are made.en_US
