1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEEM
The emphasis has been laid on the issue of academic performance of students in English language and computer science.
The
key to success or failure in today’s world is the ability to
communicate with spoken word and written words, as more as routine tasks
are performed by computer and robots. However, because of technological
development, the job assigned to students required a more sophisticated
ability to understand and transmit information.
The emphasis in the
work is to discover the extent of the student’s ability to function in
the society. In view of Ifeyinwa (2002) noted that, many students have
poor background of knowledge of English language at primary level of
education because of unqualified teachers that might be allocated to
teach English language, in view of what Ifeyinwa said, that there is a
need to improve our teaching method to enable student acquire good
knowledge in English language in order to be useful in the society.
Also,
Fermat (1997) view computer science as bedrock of any nation’s
development, it has in recent days witnessed a downward trend and
negative attitudes of students in secondary schools of Enugu North L.G.A
of Enugu State. Despite the fact that there has been a lot of hues and
cries and consistent call to improve teaching and learning of computer
to enhance student achievement in schools, most of the course done in
secondary schools, like English, mathematics and other science subject
can be taught using computer system; the use of computer games which are
being played with computer system help to arouse students interest and
create a congenial atmosphere for learning.
1.3 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The
purpose of the study is to find out the difference and similarities of
the student’s performance in English language and computer science in
junior secondary school in Enugu North.
The objective of this
research is to enable students to learn, develop and deploy
communication skills in English language and computer science.
The following objective includes:
•
To use ranking methods of influencing factors in predicting student’s
academic performances in learning of computer science and English
language.
• To enhance and determine the academic performances of the
students by effective use of instructional materials of English
language and computer science.
• To state the measure in identify the academic performance of students in computer science and English language.
