COMPARISON OF JUNIOR SECONDARY SCHOOL ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL EXAMINATION IN BIOLOGY
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Comparison of academic performance measuring of academic performance of student is challenging since student performance is the product of socio-economic, psychological and environmental factors. Education ought to be growing as a profitable industry with prime objective of maximizing profit by delivering high quality education that produces well educated, skilled mannered students according to needs and requirements of the dynamically growing market. There are two groups of students as generally perceived, that is those who improve and those who don’t improve. Students performance is also affected by different factors such as learning abilities because new paradigm about learning assumes that all students can and should learn at higher levels but it should not be considered as constraint because there are other factors like race, gender, sex that can affect students performance Hansen (2000).
Mishae (2001) explained the effect of age, qualification and distance from learning. Place on the students performance in his explanation concerns the readiness in doing a particular discipline in the school; for instance, a student that is not capable of doing sciences in the secondary school joins sciences because his/her friends are offering the subjects.Winston et al (2002) added that the academic performance of student is also coined in the students impatience (this time discount behavior). Yuonne (1998) further elaborated that students academic performance is very much dependent on SEB (socio-economic background) as per his statement, secondary school students performance is with statically significant differences. Alexander (2001) explained that some of the practice adopted by secondary school administration can also influence their academic performance, such practices like organized study group, debate club, media and culture clubs etc.comparison of academic performance
According to Bello Lawel, an Abuja based educationist a member of the All Nigeria committee of Principals of secondary school (ANCOPSS). The truth is that the reading culture in Nigeria is generally poor. To make it worse, these days, most of our students hardly read. Instead they waste their precious time watching televisions or films, listening to music, playing to music, playing video/computer games.
Government paying lip service to the education sector. Other countries who understand the importance of education have taken proactive steps to adequately fund their education sector. For instance, Ghana has allocated 29 percent to its budget education sector, even far more than the UNESCO recommendation. The same thing with countries like South Africa and Botswana who allocated 35 and 37 percent respectively to the education sector. So until these things are implemented we would continue to morty age the future of our children comparison of academic performance
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Secondary school students performances in external examinations has been a nagging issues in Nigeria generally and particularly in Enugu North Local Government Area, Enugu State.
Unfortunately, a cursory look at the performance of students in biology in external examination in Eungu North Local Government Area is nothing to write home about.
Secondly, what facilities are available in teaching and learning of the three subjects in Junior secondary school certificate examination in Enugu Local Government Area.
1.3 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
Purpose of the study
The purpose of the study is to fmd out;
Mean difference in the performance of students in biology in internal and may/June W AEC examinations.
2 Mean difference in the performance in biology of male and female students in internal examinations.
3 Mean difference in the male and female students scores in biology in may/June W AEC examination.
1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The usefulness of the research work in educational system cannot be over emphasized if the result of the study is properly utilized. It is going to be a benefit to the students, teachers, parents and government. This would help to provide some information for curriculum designers and classroom teachers in order to utilize relevant approaches to enhance meaningful learning and teaching of Biology students. Thus, the knowledge of students’ cognitive style and attitude would be very useful in both academic and career enhancement comparison of academic performance.
1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The study was based on the junior secondary school students performance in external examinations in Biology in Enugu North Local Government Area, Enugu State. This specifically covers the following junior secondary schools;
1. New Layout Secondary school
2. Days Secondary School Independent Layout
3. Government secondary school Enugu
4. Coal Camp Secondary School, Enugu
The schools mentioned above are used in this research work for better coverage and easy assessment.
1.6 RESEARCH QUESTIONS
The following research questions were formulated to guide the study. These questions are:-
1 To what extent does the students mean performance in biology III internal and . may/june W AEC examination differs
2 What is the difference between mean performance of male and female students in biology in internal examinations.
3 What is the difference between mean performance of male and female students in biology in external (may/june W AEC) examination.
