Welcome to CI world...!!!
After getting the check box value Use it like this:

Code:

$data = array(
                                            'name'        => 'show_in_header',
                                            'id'          => 'show_in_header',
                                            'value'       => '1',
                                            'checked'     => (($show_in_header) ? $show_in_header : ''),
);
echo form_checkbox($data)
