Abstract
The research investigated the influence of innovative instructional strategies on the academic achievement of secondary schools students in financial accounting. The specific objectives were to assess the innovative instructional strategies adopted by the teachers and how these strategies influence academic achievement in financial accounting. A descriptive survey research design was employed for this study. A sample of 444 respondents comprising of 16 financial accounting teachers and 428 students were used for the study. Data were collected using innovative instructional strategies Questionnaire (r=0.80) and students academic achievement in Financial Accounting. Data analysis was conducted using Descriptive Statistics (Mean and Standard Deviation) and Regression analysis with a significance level set at 0.05. Findings showed a significant influence of innovative instructional strategies on financial accounting academic achievement of Education District III students in Lagos State (F(1,426) = 21.468; p<0.05). The study therefore recommended that in order to enhance better academic achievement, instructors should be encouraged to consistently use innovative instructional strategies. School management should make it a priority to recruit teachers who are proficient in the application of novel instructional methods so as to ensure quality and effective teaching in the classroom.
