EFFECT OF CLASSROOM INTERACTION ON PHYSICS STUDENTS ACHIEVEMENT CHAPTER ONE  INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Physics is an important science subject that makes immense academic demands on students in its learning. The learning of physics is difficult at best and almost impossible at worst. But because of its enormous importance to science and technology, there is understandably huge interest in students’ achievement in Physics. In the light of this, the dynamics of teaching is a crucial factor in how much students learn Obioha (2006). Though students’ performance may not be a simple direct consequence of the teachers’ teaching act, the latter has a lot to do with classroom learning. Teachers establish the pattern of general conduct during a lesson, while on their part students establish certain types of behaviour to coincide with this pattern, Ogunleye (2002).
