COMPUTER SIMULATION MODEL EFFECT ON STUDENTS’ ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT IN COMPUTER LOGIC
ABSTRACT
The effect of Simulation Model on students’ academic achievement in Computer Logic was determined in this study. Quasi experimental design using non-equivalent groups of intact classes was adopted to address the research objective. The experiment was completed within fourteen (14) weeks. The study was guided by two research questions and two null hypotheses. The participants in the study were 181 second year NCE students from five Colleges of Education. Computer Logic Achievement Test (CLAT) with a reliability index of 0.77, was the instrument used for data collection. Mean and standard deviation were used to analyze data collected, while ANCOVA was used to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The study showed significant increase in the achievement scores of students taught Computer Logic using the Simulation Model. Significant differences were also observed in the achievement score increase in male and female students as a result of the use of the Simulation Model. Simulation approach was therefore recommended in the study as a reliable instructional delivery strategy for Computer Logic.
