| 520 | |a Results released by examining bodies on Government over the year have not been encouraging. Several researches have attempted to identify factors responsible for the poor performances in Senior Secondary School Government. But the problem still persist. The study therefore, investigated the extent to which teachers’ style of teaching; students’ study habits and classroom participation predict students’ achievement in Government in Lagos State. The study used descriptive survey research design; forty (40) teachers and four hundred (400) SS II Government students were selected through multi-stage sampling techniques from two Education Districts in Lagos State. Three validated instruments were used to gather information in this study. These are: Teachers’ Style of Teaching and Classroom Participation Questionnaire (r =.729), Study Habits Rating Scale (r =.689), Government Achievement Test (GAT). Five research questions were raised and answered in this study. The data obtained were analyzed using multiple regression and Pearson product moment correlational 0.05 level of significance. The papers submit that selection of appropriate style of teaching; exhibition of effective study habit by the students and encouragement of students in active classroom participation will lead to substantial improvement in students’ achievement in Government. Therefore, teachers should employ the right teaching style in order to motivate students to learn; students should apply effective study habit that will make them discover new things themselves and boost their achievement. | ||
