dc.description.abstractThis study is to find out the influence of using puzzle in the teaching of Physics on Senior Secondary School Students’ achievement in selected topics. The sample consists of one hundred and twenty (120) Physics students, selected randomly from fur secondary schools in Mushin local government, Lagos State. The instrument used for collecting data were two achievement tests a pre test and a post test on puzzles on the topics simple machine, work, energy and power. Data collected were analyzed using frequency counts, simple percentage, pair t-test, t-test and Pearson’s correlation co-efficient.
