ABSTRACT
This study examined the effectiveness of the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique in enhancing Form
2A1 students’ learning in Social Studies at Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School. The problem
addressed was the low level of participation and understanding among students, often linked to the
use of teacher-centered instructional methods.
The study adopted an action research design with a purposive sample of 40 Form 2A1 students.
Data were collected through questionnaires, observation checklists, and achievement tests.

xi
Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (frequencies and percentages), while
qualitative data were analyzed thematically.
The findings revealed that TPS improved students’ comprehension, retention of concepts,
attentiveness, confidence, and participation in Social Studies lessons. Students overwhelmingly
preferred TPS lessons to teacher-only methods. However, challenges such as unequal partner
participation, classroom noise, and limited time were noted.
The study concludes that TPS is an effective strategy for enhancing learning in Social Studies and
recommends its wider adoption by teachers. It further suggests training for teachers, administrative
support for interactive pedagogies, and further research on TPS across different subjects and
contexts.

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1Background to the Study

In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on enhancing students understanding and

engagement in various subjects including social studies. Social studies as a multidisciplinary field,

plays crucial role in shaping students understanding of society, culture, history and citizenship.

Student often face challenges in grasping the concept and content taught in social studies lesson,

particularly at form 2 levels. In multiple countries curriculum, social studies are the integrated

study of multiple fields of humanities, the arts and social sciences (history, economic, geography,

social studies and political science). The term was first coined by American educators around the

turn of the subjects, as well as other others which did not fit into the helps the models of lower

education in the United States such as the philosophy and psychology. One of the purposes of the

social studies, particularly at the level of higher education, is to integrate several disciplines with

their unique methodologies and special focuses of concentration into a coherent field of subject

areas that communicate with each other by sharing different academic tools and perspective for

deeper analysis of social problems and issues. Social studies aim to train students for informed,

responsible participation in a diverse democratic society. The content of social studies aims to

provide the necessary background knowledge in order to develop values and reasoned opinions

and the objective of the civic competence. A related term is humanities, arts and social science

abbreviated HASS. Traditional teaching techniques such as lectures and textbook-based

instruction may not always effectively engage form 2 students or cater to their diverse learning

needs. Therefore, there is a need to explore innovation pedagogical approaches that can enhance

students understanding and interest in social studies lessons. The NCSS in 2018 asserted that social

1
studies are understood to be those whose subject matter relate directly to the organization and

development of human society and to man as a member of a social group. The subject has also

been defined by different schools of thoughts. The schools of thoughts include social studies seen

as method that is an approach to the study of the society and the environment. Another school of

thought also sees the subject an amalgamation of the social sciences. Similarly, The NCSS in 2023

opined that social studies is the study of individuals, communities, systems and their interactions

across time and place that prepare students for local, national and global civic life Osakwe (2014)

define social studies as an integrated field of study that attempts to study man in-depth within the

ramification of his dynamic environment as well as equipping him with positive knowledge,

attitudes, values and skill for the purpose of producing competent, human and effective citizenry.

Again, in the work of Njok and Sunday (2014), they argue that social studies is an interdisciplinary

subject that enables the learner to acquire wide knowledge on the surrounding complex phenomena

and force the influence of man in his society. In spite of the numerous definitions emanating from

different schools of thoughts, it must be understood that social studies is citizenship education.

Blege (2011) has it that, “Social Studies is citizenship education which aims at producing

reflective, competent, responsible and participatory citizens”. The ultimate goal of the subject is

to educate citizens who will become responsible, effective and participatory individual willing to

contribute effectively in the [Link] for citizenship thus social studies has emerged as a

significant area of primary, secondary and the early education curriculum all over the word

(Arhtah, 2008). It is the bedrock for the development of knowledge, skills, value and understanding

required to become an informed, active and responsible citizens who are needed to shape the future

health and welfare of the local, national and global community (Banks, 1990, Martorella 1994,

Ross, 1997, Parker, 2001 and Learning and teaching Scotland [LTS], 2002 cited in Akhtah, 2008).

2
Considering the importance attached to social studies in the view of its mission and goal, thus to

produce reflective, competence and concerned citizens (Martorella, 1994:9), it is imperative that

much seriousness be given to its teaching in order to realize the accomplishment of the intended

outcome. However, it seems that the teachers of social studies in Ghana are made up of

professionals in the subject and out-of-field teachers. Critics (Ingersoll, 1999, Jerald, 2002 cited in

Dee & Cohodes, (2008:8) have argued that the prevalence of out-of-field teaching is unacceptably

high in many educational institutions. One may cynical as to whether these out-of- field teachers

are aware of the goal and focus of the subject and whether they use the social studies classroom as

a theater for addressing the current persistent issues of human on the understanding of social

studies using discussion technique. This has uncounted for the students’ inability to understand

and exhibit deeper understanding in social studies lessons. . It is against this background that this

study is justified; it therefore seeks to improve the understanding of the form 2A1students of Osei

Kyeretwie Senior High School in social studies using the Think pair share technique of teaching.

Problem Statement

Form 2A1students of Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School participated very low during social

studies lessons.

Diagnosis of the problem

The following methods were used to diagnose the problem:

 Personal observation

 Surveys

 Class exercises

3
Evidence of the problem

I personally observed that most students were always seemed to be not ready for social studies

lesson. Majority of the students were always sleeping in class when it is time for social studies

lessons. The information I gathered through interview with some of the student’s shows that, the

social studies class were boring and that anytime they come to the class, the class teacher alone

will be doing the talking. Also, I gave couple of exercises and realized their understanding of social

studies concepts is very low. I conducted some number of tests and majority of them did not show

up for the tests. To my utter dismay, those who even took the tests were not able to express

themselves and some answered the question exhibiting little or no understanding.

Causes of the problem

Some of the causes of the problem in light of the evidence could be attributed to the following

factors;

i. The use of teacher-centered methods in teaching social sstudie..

ii. Teachers ailing to allow students to discuss and share ideas on their own.

iii. Teachers’ inability to assess students’ behavior during class engagements.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

Despite the importance of Social Studies education, Form 2A1 students often exhibit limited

understanding and engagement in the subject. This lack of understanding can be attributed to

various factors, including the abstract nature of some Social Studies concepts s, the passive

learning environment in many classrooms, and the limited opportunities for hands-on learning

[Link], research indicates that traditional teaching methods may not effectively

address the diverse learning styles and preferences of Form 2A1 students. As a result, there is a

need to investigate alternative teaching strategies that can promote deeper understanding in Social

4
Studies lessons. To solve this, Think pair share technique which allows students to identify and

scrutinize basic assumptions and beliefs that influence individual behavior towards learning was

used.

1.3 Purpose of the Study

The purpose of this research was to explore the effectiveness of Think pair share technique in

enhancing Form 2A1 students’ understanding in Social Studies lessons.

1.4 Objectives of the Study

The objectives of the study were to;

1. Use think listening -pair share technique to enhance form 2AI students’ understanding in

social studies lessons at Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School.

2. To find out how Think-pair-share technique can used as an effective tool to enhance

students’ understanding in social studies lessons.

3. To use the Think -write-pair-square technique to generate students’ understanding of

concepts in social studies.

1.5 Research Questions

To achieve the stated objectives, this study will seek answers to the following research questions:

1. How will the use of Think pair share technique enhance Form 2AI students' understanding

in Social Studies lessons?

2. To what extent will the Think-pair-square technique enhance students’ understanding in

social studies lessons?

3. How will the use of Think -write-pair-square technique help enhance students

understanding of social studies concepts?

5
1.6 Significant of the Study

This research holds significant implications for various stakeholders in the field of education.

Firstly, findings from the study can inform educators and curriculum developers about the

effectiveness of discussion techniques in enhancing students understanding and engagement in

social [Link], the study can provide valuable insights for policymakers and

educational administrators seeking to promote innovative teaching methods and enhance the

quality of social studies education in schools. By recognizing the importance of hands-on learning

experiences and supporting the implementation of discussion techniques, policymakers can

contribute to the overall improvement of students’ academic performance and critical thinking

skills. Finally, the research can benefit Form 2A1 students themselves by providing them with

opportunities to explore social studies concepts in the real-world context, thereby fostering a

deeper understanding of the subject and promoting lifelong learning.

CHAPTER TWO

LITERATURE REVIEW

2.0 Introduction

This chapter reviews existing literature related to the use of the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique

in enhancing students’ learning in Social Studies. A literature review is a critical part of academic

research because it synthesizes relevant theoretical and empirical works to provide a foundation

for the study (Boote & Beile, 2005; Ridley, 2012). The purpose of this review is to examine how

Social Studies is conceptualized, the teaching and learning approaches commonly employed, and

the effectiveness of cooperative learning strategies such as TPS. The review is organized

thematically into five main sections. The first section discusses the concept of Social Studies,

highlighting its definitions, objectives, and relevance in citizenship education. The second section

examines traditional and contemporary approaches to teaching and learning Social Studies, with

emphasis on challenges in the Ghanaian context. The third section explores the Think-Pair-Share

technique, its theoretical basis, and its processes. The fourth section presents empirical studies on

the effectiveness of TPS in improving student engagement and understanding. The final section

outlines the theoretical framework underpinning the study, drawing from constructivist learning

theory and social interdependence theory.

Through this review, gaps in the existing literature are identified to justify the present research on

how TPS can be used to improve students’ participation and comprehension in Social Studies at

Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School.

2.1 Concept of Social Studies

Social Studies is a multidisciplinary subject designed to equip learners with knowledge, skills,

values, and attitudes necessary for effective citizenship. Scholars have defined Social Studies

7
differently, but all emphasize its role in preparing students for meaningful participation in society.

According to the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS, 2018), Social Studies is the

integrated study of the social sciences and humanities to promote civic competence. Similarly,

Osakwe (2014) defines Social Studies as an integrated field of study that explores humans within

their dynamic environment while equipping them with knowledge, attitudes, and skills required

for effective citizenship.

In the Ghanaian context, Social Studies is often viewed as citizenship education that fosters

reflective, competent, and participatory citizens (Blege, 2011). It emphasizes developing in

learners a sense of responsibility, patriotism, and problem-solving abilities necessary to function

in a democratic society. Njok and Sunday (2014) also contend that Social Studies is

interdisciplinary in nature, providing learners with a wide range of knowledge about complex

social phenomena and the impact of human activities on society.

Historically, Social Studies emerged in the United States in the early 20th century as an educational

response to the need for informed citizens in a rapidly changing society (Martorella, 1994). Over

time, it has become a global discipline that prepares learners not only for national citizenship but

also for participation in an interconnected world (Banks, 1990; Parker, 2001). In Ghana, the subject

was introduced as a response to the need for nation-building and social cohesion after

independence (Anamuah-Mensah, 1995).

Despite its importance, Social Studies faces challenges such as students’ low interest, the abstract

nature of some concepts, and reliance on traditional teacher-centered approaches (Akhtah, 2008;

Dee & Cohodes, 2008). These issues highlight the need for innovative teaching methods that

promote student engagement and deeper understanding.

8
2.2 Teaching and Learning Approaches in Social Studies

Teaching and learning approaches in Social Studies have historically been shaped by the objectives

of the subject through preparing learners for responsible citizenship, critical thinking, and

problem-solving. However, the methods employed often determine the extent to which these

objectives are realized.

Traditionally, Social Studies has been taught through teacher-centered approaches such as lecture,

note-taking, and rote memorization. These approaches focus on the transmission of factual

knowledge from teacher to student, with limited opportunities for learner participation (Martorella,

1994). While such methods may allow coverage of large amounts of content, they often result in

passive learning and low retention, as students are not actively involved in constructing knowledge

(Parker, 2001).

In Ghanaian schools, research indicates that many teachers continue to rely heavily on didactic

methods, where students are treated as passive recipients of knowledge (Dee & Cohodes, 2008;

Anamuah-Mensah, 1995). This often leads to student disinterest, as observed in the case of Osei

Kyeretwie Senior High School, where learners reported boredom and low participation in Social

Studies lessons. Akyeampong (2009) argues that teacher-centered pedagogies dominate partly due

to large class sizes, limited teaching resources, and lack of professional training in active learning

strategies.

Contemporary perspectives emphasize learner-centered approaches that encourage inquiry,

discussion, and critical thinking. Constructivist theorists such as Vygotsky (1978) and Piaget

(1970) argue that learners construct meaning through interaction with peers, teachers, and the

environment. Therefore, strategies such as cooperative learning, role-play, debates, and discussion

techniques have been promoted as effective ways of engaging learners in Social Studies (Johnson

9
& Johnson, 2009; Gillies, 2016). These approaches not only improve comprehension but also build

collaboration, communication, and civic competencies—core goals of Social Studies education.

Despite the evidence supporting interactive methods, the adoption of such strategies remains

limited in many African classrooms, including Ghana. Studies by Osei (2013) and Owu-Ewie

(2014) reveal that constraints such as examination-driven curricula, inadequate instructional time,

and teacher workload hinder the implementation of innovative pedagogies. This calls for the

integration of simple but effective strategies such as Think-Pair-Share (TPS), which balance

content coverage with active student engagement.

2.3 The Think-Pair-Share (TPS) Technique

The Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique is an active learning strategy that promotes student

engagement, collaboration, and critical thinking. It was originally developed by Frank Lyman in

1981 as a cooperative discussion method to encourage equitable participation in classrooms

(Lyman, 1981). The technique is grounded in constructivist and cooperative learning theories,

which emphasize that learning is enhanced when students actively construct meaning and share

ideas with peers (Vygotsky, 1978; Johnson & Johnson, 2009).

The TPS process typically follows three stages. In the “Think” stage, students are given time to

reflect individually on a posed question or problem. During the “Pair” stage, they discuss their

ideas with a partner, clarifying and refining their responses. Finally, in the “Share” stage, pairs

present their insights to the whole class, enabling collective learning (Kaddoura, 2013). This

structure ensures that all students, including those who may be reluctant to speak in large groups,

have the opportunity to contribute (Gillies, 2016).\

One of the strengths of TPS is its simplicity and adaptability across subjects and levels of

education. Studies show that TPS improves classroom interaction, promotes deeper understanding

10
of content, and develops communication and reasoning skills (McTighe & Lyman, 1988; Rowe,

1986). It also aligns with the principles of formative assessment, as teachers can gauge student

understanding through their responses during the “share” stage (Black & Wiliam, 1998).

In Social Studies, where the development of civic competencies and critical reflection is

paramount, TPS provides a platform for learners to analyze social issues, debate perspectives, and

collaboratively construct knowledge. Akpan and Beard (2016) note that discussion-based

techniques like TPS are particularly effective in helping students link abstract concepts to real-life

experiences. Furthermore, the method encourages inclusivity, as it gives voice to students who

might otherwise remain passive in teacher-centered lessons (Millis, 2010).

Given these benefits, TPS has gained recognition as a powerful pedagogical tool in modern

classrooms. However, its effectiveness depends on the teacher’s ability to structure thought-

provoking questions and manage classroom discussions effectively (Kaddoura, 2013).

2.4 Empirical Studies on Think-Pair-Share

A considerable body of empirical research supports the effectiveness of the Think-Pair-Share

(TPS) strategy in enhancing students’ engagement, comprehension, and critical thinking across

disciplines. Studies in both developed and developing contexts have shown that TPS fosters

collaborative learning and improves academic outcomes.

Internationally, Kaddoura (2013) investigated the use of TPS in a nursing program and found that

it significantly enhanced students’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Similarly, Tanner

(2009) demonstrated that TPS increased participation and comprehension in biology classrooms,

particularly among students who were previously reluctant to engage in discussions. Rowe’s

(1986) earlier research also indicated that providing students with structured “wait time” through

strategies like TPS improved both the quality and quantity of student responses.

11
In African contexts, TPS has also shown promise. Adeyemi (2008), in a study conducted in

Nigerian secondary schools, revealed that TPS positively impacted students’ achievement in

Social Studies by promoting active participation and peer-to-peer learning. Likewise, Akinbobola

(2009) found that cooperative learning methods, including TPS, improved students’ performance

in physics and enhanced their ability to collaborate effectively. These findings align with Akpan

and Beard’s (2016) assertion that constructivist, discussion-oriented strategies help students

contextualize abstract concepts into meaningful, real-world knowledge.

In Ghana, research on cooperative learning has emphasized its potential to address persistent

challenges in Social Studies teaching. Osei (2013) highlighted that interactive methods like TPS

encourage learners to critically examine social issues and engage in reflective thinking, which are

central objectives of Social Studies education. Similarly, Owu-Ewie (2014) stressed that

discussion-based strategies provide learners with opportunities to articulate ideas, compare

perspectives, and refine their understanding.

Empirical evidence also suggests that TPS contributes to inclusivity in classrooms. Millis (2010)

observed that TPS creates a safe environment for shy or less confident students to express their

views in pairs before addressing the larger class. This was corroborated by Gillies (2016), who

reported that cooperative learning strategies such as TPS promote equitable participation and

reduce classroom passivity.

Taken together, these empirical studies highlight the effectiveness of TPS in improving student

outcomes across subjects and contexts. However, gaps remain in localized research, particularly

in Ghanaian senior high schools, where traditional methods continue to dominate Social Studies

instruction. This gap underscores the significance of the present study.

12
2.5 Theoretical Framework

Every research study requires a sound theoretical foundation to guide its design, interpretation,

and implications. The present study is anchored on Constructivist Learning Theory and Social

Interdependence Theory, both of which provide insights into how learners interact with content,

peers, and the teacher during the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) process.

2.5.1 Constructivist Learning Theory

Constructivism posits that learners actively construct knowledge through interaction with their

environment rather than passively receiving information (Piaget, 1970; Vygotsky, 1978). This

theory emphasizes that learning is a social process shaped by prior knowledge, experiences, and

collaboration. Vygotsky’s concept of the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) highlights the

importance of peer interaction and scaffolding in helping learners achieve higher levels of

understanding.

TPS aligns closely with constructivist principles because it provides students with opportunities to

individually process information (“think”), interact with peers to refine their ideas (“pair”), and

share their perspectives with the whole class (“share”). Through these stages, learners co-construct

meaning and deepen their understanding of Social Studies concepts. This reflects Piaget’s (1970)

notion of cognitive conflict, where exposure to different viewpoints stimulates new learning.

2.5.2 Social Interdependence Theory

Social Interdependence Theory, developed by Johnson and Johnson (2009), posits that the way

interdependence among group members is structured determines how they interact and,

consequently, the outcomes of learning. Positive interdependence occurs when individuals

perceive that their success is linked to the success of others, leading to cooperative efforts and

mutual support.

13
In the context of TPS, students depend on each other during the “pair” and “share” stages, where

they exchange ideas and clarify misconceptions. This interdependence fosters accountability, as

each student’s contribution influences the collective understanding of the group. Empirical

evidence suggests that positive interdependence not only improves academic achievement but also

enhances interpersonal skills such as communication, empathy, and respect for diverse

perspectives (Gillies, 2016; Slavin, 2015).

2.5.3 Application to the Study

Together, constructivism and social interdependence theory explain why TPS is an effective

pedagogical approach for teaching Social Studies. Constructivism underscores the importance of

active knowledge construction, while social interdependence emphasizes the collaborative

dimension of learning. These frameworks suggest that TPS can transform Social Studies

classrooms from passive, lecture-dominated spaces into interactive environments where learners

critically analyze issues, share perspectives, and develop civic competencies.

2.6 Summary of Literature Review

This chapter has examined the conceptual, theoretical, and empirical foundations of the study. The

review began by exploring the concept of Social Studies, which has been defined as a

multidisciplinary subject aimed at developing knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes necessary

for responsible citizenship (NCSS, 2018; Osakwe, 2014). It was established that, although Social

Studies is critical for civic competence, the subject often faces challenges such as low student

interest and the dominance of teacher-centered methods in Ghanaian classrooms (Akyeampong,

2009; Dee & Cohodes, 2008).

The chapter then reviewed teaching and learning approaches in Social Studies, noting that while

traditional lecture methods are still common, learner-centered and interactive pedagogies are more

14
effective in engaging students and promoting critical thinking (Johnson & Johnson, 2009; Gillies,

2016). These challenges provide justification for exploring innovative strategies such as the Think-

Pair-Share (TPS) technique.

The TPS technique was discussed as a cooperative learning strategy rooted in constructivist theory,

designed to increase participation, inclusivity, and comprehension (Lyman, 1981; Kaddoura,

2013). Empirical studies across different contexts demonstrated its effectiveness in enhancing

critical thinking, communication, and academic performance (Adeyemi, 2008; Tanner, 2009). In

Ghana, however, there remains limited research on the use of TPS in Social Studies, particularly

at the senior high school level.

The theoretical framework underpinning this study was drawn from constructivist learning theory

(Piaget, 1970; Vygotsky, 1978) and social interdependence theory (Johnson & Johnson, 2009).

These perspectives highlight the role of active knowledge construction and collaborative

interdependence in effective learning.

In summary, the literature reveals that while Social Studies plays a vital role in preparing students

for citizenship, its teaching in Ghana is constrained by overreliance on teacher-centered methods.

Although TPS has proven effective internationally and in other African contexts, its application in

Ghanaian senior high schools is underexplored. This gap provides the basis for the present study,

which seeks to examine how TPS can be used to enhance Form 2A1 students’ learning in Social

Studies at Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School.

CHAPTER THREE

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

3.1 Introduction

This chapter explains the methodology adopted for the study. It presents the research design, the

population, sample and sampling techniques, research instruments, procedures for data collection,

methods of data analysis, and ethical considerations. The choice of methodology was guided by

the objectives of the study, which sought to investigate how the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique

can be used to improve Form 2A1 students’ learning in Social Studies at Osei Kyeretwie Senior

High School.

Methodology is essential in educational research because it provides a systematic plan for

gathering, analyzing, and interpreting data in order to answer research questions (Creswell &

Creswell, 2018). It ensures that the study is rigorous, replicable, and aligned with its purpose

(Mertler, 2019). Thus, this chapter outlines the steps taken to ensure that the study was conducted

in a scientifically valid and ethically sound manner.

3.2 Research Design

The study adopted an action research design. Action research is a form of practitioner research that

enables educators to systematically investigate their own practice with the aim of improving

teaching and learning (Mertler, 2019). It is cyclical in nature, involving planning, acting,

observing, and reflecting, which allows teachers to identify problems in the classroom, implement

interventions, and assess their effectiveness.

This design was deemed appropriate because the researcher sought to explore the effectiveness of

the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique in enhancing students’ learning in Social Studies within a

real classroom context. According to Cohen, Manion, and Morrison (2018), action research is

16
particularly suitable for classroom-based studies as it provides immediate solutions to practical

educational problems. Similarly, Creswell and Creswell (2018) explain that action research is

effective in bridging the gap between theory and practice, as teachers test innovative strategies

while engaging students in authentic learning experiences.

In this study, action research allowed the researcher to introduce the TPS technique into Social

Studies lessons, observe students’ responses, and reflect on how the strategy influenced

participation and understanding. This made it possible to evaluate the practicality and effectiveness

of TPS in addressing the problem of low engagement in Social Studies among Form 2A1 students.

3.3 Population of the Study

The population of a study refers to the entire group of individuals or elements that share common

characteristics and from which the sample is drawn (Creswell & Creswell, 2018). For this research,

the target population comprised all Form Two students of Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School in

the Ashanti Region of Ghana. These students were considered appropriate because Social Studies

is a core subject at this level, and the challenges of low participation and understanding were most

visible among them.

The accessible population for the study was limited to Form 2A1 students, as they constituted the

class in which the researcher observed persistent low engagement in Social Studies lessons.

According to Cohen, Manion, and Morrison (2018), focusing on an accessible population enables

the researcher to gather reliable data within practical constraints such as time and resources.

This group was considered suitable for the study because their learning difficulties in Social

Studies aligned with the objectives of the research, which sought to explore how the Think-Pair-

Share (TPS) technique could enhance understanding and participation.

3.4 Sample and Sampling Techniques

A sample refers to a subset of the population selected for the purpose of a study, and the process

of selecting this subset is known as sampling (Creswell & Creswell, 2018). Sampling is important

because it allows the researcher to focus on a manageable group while drawing conclusions that

may be generalized to the wider population (Etikan, Musa, & Alkassim, 2016).

In this study, the sample consisted of 40 students from Form 2A1 at Osei Kyeretwie Senior High

School. The class was chosen purposively because preliminary observations revealed that the

students demonstrated low participation and limited understanding in Social Studies lessons.

Purposive sampling is a non-probability technique in which participants are deliberately selected

based on specific characteristics relevant to the research problem (Cohen, Manion, & Morrison,

2018).

This sampling method was appropriate because it enabled the researcher to focus on the group

most affected by the problem under investigation. Furthermore, including all 40 students in the

class ensured that the intervention was applied uniformly and that findings reflected the diverse

academic abilities within the group. According to Etikan et al. (2016), purposive sampling is

particularly useful in educational action research, where the researcher seeks to solve a problem

within a specific context rather than to generalize findings to all populations.

3.5 Research Instruments

Research instruments are the tools used to collect data for a study. The choice of instruments

depends on the objectives of the research and the nature of the data required (Cohen, Manion, &

Morrison, 2018). For this study, two main instruments were employed:

18
3.5.1 Observation Checklist

An observation checklist was used to record students’ participation, attentiveness, and interaction

during Social Studies lessons where the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique was applied.

Observation is a suitable instrument for action research because it allows the researcher to capture

natural classroom behavior and monitor changes in real time (Mertler, 2019). The checklist was

structured to assess indicators such as frequency of student contributions, collaboration during pair

discussions, and willingness to share ideas with the class.

3.5.2 Achievement Tests

Two achievement tests—a pre-test and a post-test—were administered to evaluate students’

understanding of Social Studies concepts before and after the intervention. The pre-test established

the baseline knowledge of the students, while the post-test assessed the improvement after the TPS

technique was implemented. Tests are widely recognized as effective tools for measuring students’

cognitive outcomes (Gay, Mills, & Airasian, 2012). The results from these tests provided

quantitative evidence of the effectiveness of TPS in enhancing learning outcomes.

The combination of observation and achievement tests provided methodological triangulation,

which improves the validity of research findings by allowing data from different sources to

complement and confirm one another (Creswell & Creswell, 2018).

3.6 Data Collection Procedures

Data collection refers to the systematic process of gathering information relevant to answering the

research questions of a study (Creswell & Creswell, 2018). For this study, data collection was

conducted in three main phases:

19
Phase One: Pre-Test Administration

At the beginning of the intervention, a pre-test was administered to Form 2A1 students to establish

their baseline understanding of selected Social Studies concepts. The pre-test provided quantitative

data on students’ initial performance and highlighted specific areas of weakness.

Phase Two: Implementation of Think-Pair-Share (TPS)

Over a four-week period, the Think-Pair-Share technique was integrated into selected Social

Studies lessons. During this phase, the researcher acted as both the teacher and observer. Students

were given questions to reflect on individually (“think”), discuss in pairs (“pair”), and share with

the class (“share”). Their participation, attentiveness, and interaction were recorded using the

observation checklist. According to Mertler (2019), action research requires the researcher to be

an active participant, continually reflecting on the outcomes of each cycle of intervention.

Phase Three: Post-Test Administration

At the end of the intervention, a post-test was administered to the same group of students. This test

measured the extent of improvement in their understanding compared to the pre-test results. The

comparison of pre-test and post-test scores provided evidence of the impact of TPS on learning

outcomes.

By combining observation data with test results, the researcher was able to capture both the

behavioral and academic effects of the TPS technique. Such triangulation enhances the credibility

and reliability of findings (Cohen, Manion, & Morrison, 2018).

3.7 Data Analysis Techniques

Data analysis is the process of organizing, interpreting, and making sense of collected data to

answer the research questions (Gay, Mills, & Airasian, 2012). In this study, both quantitative and

20
qualitative methods of analysis were employed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the

impact of the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique on students’ learning.

Quantitative Analysis

The quantitative data were obtained from the pre-test and post-test scores. These were analyzed

using descriptive statistics, including mean scores, percentages, and frequency distributions. This

enabled the researcher to determine the extent of improvement in students’ academic performance

after the intervention. According to Creswell and Creswell (2018), descriptive statistics are useful

in educational research for summarizing performance trends in a clear and meaningful way.

Qualitative Analysis

The qualitative data were derived from the observation checklist administered during Social

Studies lessons. The researcher examined recurring patterns in students’ classroom behaviors, such

as participation in pair discussions, attentiveness, and willingness to share ideas during the “share”

stage of TPS. These patterns were analyzed thematically to identify how TPS influenced students’

engagement. Cohen, Manion, and Morrison (2018) emphasize that qualitative analysis is valuable

for capturing classroom dynamics that cannot be measured through test scores alone.

The use of both quantitative and qualitative analysis provided a triangulated perspective, which

enhanced the validity of the findings. Triangulation ensures that conclusions are not based on a

single source of evidence but are supported by multiple forms of data (Flick, 2018).

3.8 Ethical Considerations

Ethical considerations are a vital aspect of educational research, as they ensure the protection of

participants’ rights and the integrity of the study (Cohen, Manion, & Morrison, 2018). This study

adhered to standard ethical guidelines throughout the research process.

21
First, permission was obtained from the school authorities of Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School

before the commencement of the study. This was necessary to gain institutional approval and to

ensure that the research did not disrupt the school’s teaching and learning activities.

Second, informed consent was sought from the participants. The Form 2A1 students were informed

about the purpose of the research, the procedures involved, and the potential benefits of

participating. They were assured that their participation was voluntary and that they could

withdraw at any stage without penalty.

Third, confidentiality and anonymity were strictly observed. Students’ responses and test scores

were used solely for research purposes and were not disclosed to any third party. No names or

identifying information appeared in the report to protect the privacy of participants (Creswell &

Creswell, 2018).

Finally, the researcher ensured that the study posed no harm to participants. The intervention

involved normal classroom teaching activities, enhanced by the Think-Pair-Share technique,

which enriched the learning experience rather than placing students at risk. According to Mertler

(2019), action research must balance the dual responsibility of improving practice and

safeguarding participants’ welfare.

22
CHAPTER FOUR

RESULT AND DISCUSSION

4.1 Introduction

This chapter presents and discusses the results of the study on the use of the Think-Pair-Share

(TPS) technique to enhance Form 2A1 students’ learning in Social Studies at Osei Kyeretwie

Senior High School. The presentation of findings follows the sequence of the research questions

outlined in Chapter One. Both quantitative data from closed-ended questionnaire items and

qualitative data from open-ended responses were analyzed.

Descriptive statistics such as frequencies and percentages were used to summarize the quantitative

responses. These are presented in tables for clarity and easy interpretation. The qualitative data

were analyzed thematically to capture students’ experiences, challenges, and suggestions

regarding the use of TPS. This triangulated approach ensures a holistic understanding of how TPS

influenced students’ engagement, comprehension, and confidence in Social Studies learning

(Creswell & Creswell, 2018; Flick, 2018).

The discussion of findings is guided by the study’s theoretical framework—Constructivist

Learning Theory (Vygotsky, 1978) and Social Interdependence Theory (Johnson & Johnson,

2009). These theories emphasize that learning is socially constructed and enriched when learners

actively interact with peers and depend on each other to achieve learning outcomes. The results

are also discussed in relation to existing literature on innovative pedagogical strategies, particularly

cooperative learning methods, in Ghana and beyond.

In this chapter, the results are organized under four major sections: (1) background information of

respondents, (2) students’ participation in the TPS process, (3) students’ perceptions of TPS, and

23
(4) qualitative insights from open-ended items. Each section is followed by a discussion linking

the findings to the research questions and relevant scholarly works.

4.2 Presentation of Results

4.2.1 Background Information of Respondents

This section provides an overview of the demographic characteristics of the respondents. The

information presented includes gender, age, length of stay in the school, and interest in Social

Studies as a subject. Such background information is essential because it provides context for

interpreting the subsequent findings (Creswell & Creswell, 2018).

Table 4.1: Demographic Characteristics of Respondents (N = 20)

The results in Table 4.1 show that the respondents comprised 12 males (60%) and 8 females (40%).

The majority of the students (90%) were within the 16–19 age bracket, which corresponds with

the expected age range for senior high school students in Ghana. With regard to years of schooling,

60% had been in the school for two years, while 40% had been enrolled for only one year.

Interestingly, a large proportion (70%) of students indicated that they liked Social Studies, while

30% expressed disinterest.

This distribution suggests that the class was fairly balanced in terms of gender, while the age and

years of schooling reflect a typical Form Two cohort. The finding that most students liked Social

24
Studies is consistent with Osakwe (2014), who noted that Social Studies has the potential to

generate student interest when taught with relevant and engaging approaches. However, the 30%

who did not like the subject may have been influenced by teacher-centered pedagogies, as observed

by Akyeampong (2009), where students often report boredom due to passive teaching methods.

4.2.2 Students’ Participation in the TPS Process

The study sought to examine the extent to which students participated in the three stages of the

Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique: Think, Pair, and Share. Students were asked to indicate how

frequently they took part in each stage during Social Studies lessons. Their responses are presented

in Figure 4.2.

Source: Field Work (2025)

The results in Figure 4.2 indicate that student participation was strongest in the Think and Pair

stages. A combined 80% of respondents reported that they “always” or “often” engaged in

25
individual reflection, while 85% reported the same for pair discussions. Participation was

comparatively lower in the Share stage, with 40% reporting “always,” 35% “often,” and 20%

“sometimes,” while 5% admitted participating “rarely.”

This suggests that while TPS effectively encouraged active engagement during the Think and Pair

stages, some students were less confident when sharing their ideas with the whole class. This

finding is consistent with Millis (2010), who observed that TPS creates a safe platform for shy or

less confident learners, yet the transition from pair discussions to whole-class sharing can still pose

challenges. Similarly, Gillies (2016) emphasizes that teacher scaffolding during the Share stage is

critical to ensuring equitable participation among all learners.

4.2.3 Students’ Perceptions of TPS

Students were asked to indicate their level of agreement with several statements about the Think-

Pair-Share (TPS) technique. Their responses are presented in Table 4.3.

Source: Field Data (2025)

The results in Table 4.3 reveal overwhelmingly positive perceptions of TPS. Seventy percent of

respondents strongly agreed that TPS made Social Studies lessons more interesting, while 25%

agreed. Similarly, 75% strongly agreed that TPS helped them understand Social Studies concepts

better, and another 20% agreed. In terms of retention, 55% strongly agreed and 35% agreed that

they remembered facts and ideas more easily after TPS lessons.

A large majority also indicated that TPS improved their classroom behavior: 95% reported that

TPS encouraged them to pay more attention, while 95% also agreed that working with a partner

27
enhanced their learning. Importantly, 70% strongly agreed and 20% agreed that they preferred TPS

lessons to teacher-only lessons.

These findings underscore the effectiveness of TPS in fostering interest, comprehension, retention,

and critical thinking. They align with studies such as Kaddoura (2013), who found that TPS

increased students’ engagement and problem-solving skills, and Tanner (2009), who reported that

TPS enhanced students’ willingness to participate in discussions. Moreover, the results confirm

Johnson and Johnson’s (2009) assertion that cooperative learning strategies create positive

interdependence and promote deeper understanding.

4.2.4 Qualitative Results from Open-Ended Items

In addition to the structured items, students were asked open-ended questions to express their

experiences, challenges, and suggestions regarding the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique. Their

responses were analyzed thematically under four main categories: most enjoyed stage of TPS,

contributions of TPS to learning, challenges encountered, and suggestions for improvement.

Most Enjoyed Stage of TPS

Most students reported that they enjoyed the Pair stage the most, because it gave them the

opportunity to discuss ideas with a peer before sharing them with the whole class. A typical

response was, “I liked the Pair stage because I could share my thoughts with my friend and become

more confident before speaking in front of everyone.” This finding echoes Millis (2010), who

observed that pair discussions provide a safe space for less confident students to refine their ideas

before public participation.

Contributions of TPS to Learning

Students highlighted that TPS helped them understand Social Studies concepts better, retain

information, and relate lessons to real-life situations. For example, one student noted, “TPS made

28
me understand topics like governance better because we used examples from our daily life.”

Another said, “It helped me remember facts more easily because we explained them to each other.”

These views align with Akpan and Beard (2016), who argued that discussion-based techniques

like TPS help learners contextualize abstract concepts into meaningful knowledge.

Challenges Encountered

Despite the benefits, some challenges were identified. A few students reported that their partners

did not always contribute actively, while others mentioned noise and limited time for discussions

as setbacks. One respondent explained, “Sometimes my partner didn’t talk much, so it was like I

was doing the work alone.” Another remarked, “There was too much noise when everyone was

sharing at the same time.” These concerns reflect Osei’s (2013) observation that while cooperative

learning promotes engagement, classroom management and time allocation remain critical

challenges.

Suggestions for Improvement

Students suggested that teachers should give them more time during the “Think” stage to process

questions, encourage equal participation during pair work, and extend TPS to other subjects. One

student recommended, “The teacher should allow more time for thinking before pairing.” Another

added, “TPS should be used in other subjects like Science and English because it helps us learn

better.” Such suggestions are consistent with Gillies (2016), who emphasized that structured

teacher support and wider application of cooperative strategies can maximize their effectiveness.

Overall, the qualitative responses complement the quantitative findings, showing that TPS not only

improved learning outcomes but also created a more engaging and supportive classroom

environment.

29
4.3 Discussion of Findings

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the Think-Pair-Share (TPS)

technique in enhancing Form 2A1 students’ understanding of Social Studies at Osei Kyeretwie

Senior High School. The findings are discussed in relation to the research questions, the theoretical

framework, and relevant empirical literature.

4.3.1 Research Question One

How will the use of Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique enhance Form 2A1 students’ understanding

in Social Studies lessons?

The study found that TPS significantly improved students’ understanding of Social Studies

concepts. Seventy-five percent of respondents strongly agreed that TPS enhanced their

comprehension, while 90% agreed that they could remember Social Studies facts and ideas more

easily after TPS lessons. The open-ended responses further revealed that students valued

discussing real-life examples with peers, which deepened their understanding.

These results corroborate Adeyemi’s (2008) study in Nigerian secondary schools, which

demonstrated that TPS positively impacted achievement in Social Studies by fostering peer-to-

peer interaction. Similarly, Tanner (2009) reported that TPS increased comprehension and

participation in science classrooms. The findings align with constructivist learning theory, which

posits that learners construct meaning through active engagement and social interaction

(Vygotsky, 1978). Thus, TPS enhanced students’ comprehension by creating opportunities for

reflection, collaboration, and articulation of ideas.

4.3.2 Research Question Two

To what extent will the Think-Pair-Share technique enhance students’ understanding in Social

Studies lessons?

30
The extent of enhancement was evident in both participation and preference. More than 80% of

students reported “often” or “always” participating in the Think and Pair stages, while 70%

strongly agreed and 20% agreed that they preferred TPS lessons over teacher-only methods.

Furthermore, 65% strongly agreed that TPS made them more confident in answering questions,

while 95% agreed that working with a partner helped them learn more effectively.

This high level of participation and preference suggests that TPS not only improved

comprehension but also motivated students to actively engage with Social Studies. The findings

are consistent with Gillies (2016), who noted that cooperative learning increases inclusivity and

equitable participation, and with Johnson and Johnson’s (2009) assertion that social

interdependence fosters accountability and mutual learning.

4.3.3 Research Question Three

How will the use of Think-Write-Pair-Share technique help enhance students’ understanding of

Social Studies concepts?

Although this study primarily focused on TPS, the findings indirectly highlight the potential of

Think-Write-Pair-Share (TWPS). Students frequently emphasized that the Pair and Share stages

built their confidence and improved their clarity of thought. This suggests that adding a Write stage

could further reinforce learning by allowing students to organize their ideas before discussing them

with peers. This supports Rowe’s (1986) observation that extended “wait time” enhances the

quality of student responses.

Thus, TPS and its variations encourage students to critically reflect, articulate, and consolidate

ideas, which are vital for mastering abstract Social Studies concepts.

31
4.3.4 Challenges of Using TPS

Despite its overall effectiveness, students identified some challenges. These included unequal

participation among partners, classroom noise, and limited time for discussions. Such challenges

are not unique; Osei (2013) similarly noted that participatory methods in Ghanaian classrooms

face difficulties due to time constraints and class management issues. Nevertheless, these

challenges can be mitigated through structured guidance, careful time management, and

reinforcement of equal participation.

4.3.5 Implications of Findings

The findings have several implications for Social Studies education at the senior high school level.

First, TPS is effective in shifting students from passive learning to active engagement, thereby

addressing low participation challenges observed in traditional classrooms. Second, TPS fosters

confidence and collaboration, which are essential for civic competence—a central goal of Social

Studies education (Osakwe, 2014). Third, the study shows that incorporating cooperative learning

strategies can improve not only academic outcomes but also communication and critical thinking

skills, which are vital for 21st-century learning.

32
CHAPTER FIVE

SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

5.1 Introduction

This chapter provides a synthesis of the entire study by presenting the summary of the key findings,

the conclusions drawn, and recommendations for practice, policy, and further research. The study

was conducted to examine the effectiveness of the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique in enhancing

Form 2A1 students’ learning in Social Studies at Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School.

The chapter is organized into four sections. The first section presents a summary of the study,

including its objectives, methodology, and major findings. The second section outlines the

conclusions derived from the results, showing how they address the research questions. The third

section provides recommendations for teachers, administrators, policymakers, and researchers.

The final section offers a brief summary of the chapter to highlight the main insights of the study.

The aim is to consolidate the knowledge gained from the study and to provide practical and

scholarly contributions to the improvement of Social Studies pedagogy in Ghanaian senior high

schools.

5.2 Summary of the Study

The study investigated the use of the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique as an instructional strategy

to enhance Form 2A1 students’ learning in Social Studies at Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School.

The problem that necessitated the study was the observed low participation and poor understanding

of Social Studies concepts among the students, which was largely attributed to teacher-centered

approaches.

33
The main objectives of the study were to:

1. Explore how TPS could be used to enhance students’ understanding of Social Studies

concepts.

2. Determine the extent to which TPS could serve as an effective tool for improving students’

learning outcomes.

3. Examine how the Think-Write-Pair-Share (TWPS) variation could further support

students’ comprehension and participation.

An action research design was adopted, since the study sought to solve a practical classroom

problem while improving teaching and learning. The target population consisted of Form Two

students at Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School, while the accessible population was the 40

students in Form 2A1. A purposive sampling technique was employed, and all students in the class

were involved in the intervention.

Data were collected through questionnaires (with both closed and open-ended items), observation

checklists, and achievement tests. The TPS technique was implemented in Social Studies lessons

for four weeks, after which the results were assessed. Quantitative data were analyzed using

descriptive statistics such as frequencies and percentages, while qualitative data were analyzed

thematically.

The study revealed the following key findings:

 Students actively participated in all stages of TPS, with the Think and Pair stages showing

higher engagement than the Share stage.

 TPS significantly improved students’ comprehension, retention of Social Studies concepts,

attentiveness, and confidence in class.

 The majority of students preferred TPS lessons to traditional teacher-only lessons.

34
 Qualitative responses highlighted that students enjoyed working with peers, which built

their confidence, but also pointed out challenges such as unequal partner participation,

classroom noise, and limited discussion time.

 Students recommended that TPS be applied in other subjects and that more time be

allocated for reflection in the Think stage.

Overall, the study confirmed that TPS is an effective cooperative learning strategy that enhances

student engagement, participation, and understanding in Social Studies at the senior high school

level.

5.3 Conclusions

Based on the findings of the study, the following conclusions were drawn:

1. Think-Pair-Share (TPS) enhances students’ understanding of Social Studies concepts.

The results indicated that students gained a clearer comprehension of Social Studies topics

and were able to retain facts more effectively when TPS was used. This was achieved

through individual reflection, peer discussion, and class sharing, which allowed students

to process information collaboratively.

2. TPS is an effective tool for promoting active participation and classroom engagement.

The study showed that the majority of students participated “often” or “always” in the

Think and Pair stages, while many also took part in the Share stage. This suggests that TPS

transformed the learning environment from a passive, teacher-centered model into an

interactive and student-centered one.

3. TPS builds students’ confidence and critical thinking skills.

Students reported increased confidence in answering questions and sharing ideas during

lessons. Pair discussions provided a safe space for students to refine their thoughts before

35
addressing the whole class, thereby encouraging critical reflection and communication

skills.

4. Despite its benefits, TPS is not without challenges.

The technique faced minor difficulties such as unequal participation among partners,

classroom noise during discussions, and limited time for reflection. These challenges,

however, can be mitigated through effective teacher scaffolding and classroom

management strategies.

5. TPS and its variations have broader potential beyond Social Studies.

Students recommended that TPS be applied to other subjects such as Science and English,

indicating its versatility as a teaching strategy. The Think-Write-Pair-Share (TWPS)

variation, in particular, was identified as a potential tool to further strengthen understanding

and participation.

5.4 Recommendations

Based on the conclusions drawn from the study, the following recommendations are made:

5.4.1 Recommendations to Teachers

1. Social Studies teachers should adopt the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique regularly to

promote active engagement, deeper understanding, and improved retention of concepts.

2. Teachers should allocate sufficient time to each TPS stage, especially the Think stage, to

allow students to reflect meaningfully before discussions.

3. Teachers should provide clear guidelines during pair discussions to ensure equal

participation and prevent dominance by more vocal students.

4. The Think-Write-Pair-Share (TWPS) variation should be incorporated occasionally to help

students organize their ideas in writing before engaging in pair and class discussions.

36
5. Teachers should employ classroom management strategies to minimize noise and

distractions during the “Pair” and “Share” stages.

5.4.2 Recommendations to School Administrators and Policymakers

1. School administrators should provide professional development workshops and in-service

training to equip teachers with skills in cooperative learning strategies such as TPS.

2. The Ghana Education Service (GES) should encourage the inclusion of interactive

pedagogies like TPS in teacher training curricula and classroom practice guidelines.

3. School leaders should provide supportive classroom environments (adequate space and

resources) that allow for interactive strategies such as TPS to be effectively implemented.

5.4.3 Recommendations to Future Researchers

1. Future studies could replicate this research in different schools, districts, or regions to

validate the effectiveness of TPS across broader contexts in Ghana.

2. Comparative studies should be conducted between TPS and other cooperative learning

strategies (e.g., Jigsaw, Round Robin, Group Investigation) to determine the most effective

strategy for Social Studies.

3. Longitudinal studies should be undertaken to assess the long-term impact of TPS on

students’ academic performance, confidence, and civic competence.

4. Researchers may also explore the adaptation of TPS in other subjects such as Science,

Mathematics, and English to assess its cross-curricular effectiveness.
