...CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION a. Background of the Study Academic performance of students may be affected or shaped by a lot of factors to include time management, access to facilities, conducive learning environment, presence or influence of institutional support, and other resources which in one way or another can contribute to scholastic achievement. However, there is not much research, particularly in a local setting, showing focus on the relationship between study time allocation and academic achievement more specifically among fourth year and fifth year engineering and architecture students. It has been observed that among engineering and architecture students, spending much time in studying is not a common practice, or at the very least, is not admitted. There is a question as to whether or not studying does matter especially that such has not been very apparent in the College of Engineering and Architecture. The level of diligence displayed by students of other courses or their devotion to allocating study time appears to be unusual or uncommon in the College of Engineering and Architecture since a substantive level of understanding to the mind-boggling engineering and architecture-related theories and doctrines as commonly expressed in formulas is preferred and is reflected on the degree of intelligence among the students. In other words, analytical intelligence in numbers and figures and not merely diligence defines the students of engineering and architecture. Thus...

...CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT HAS CONTRIBUTED TO THE GROWTH AND IMPROVEMENT IN EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM Continuous assessment means assessing aspects of learners' language throughout their course and then producing a final evaluation result from these assessments. It can be compared with a final or summative assessment, which only assesses the learner at the end of the course. Continuous assessment often provides a more accurate and complete picture of the learner's level and has a positive impact on learning. Reference http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/knowledge-database/continuous-assessment Assessment: Continuous Assessment Types of Continuous Assessment Continuous assessment is more likely to be formative, process-oriented, informal, internal, learner-involved, and/or self-referenced in nature. It can take the form of daily work (e.g. essays, quizzes, presentation and participation in class), projects/term papers and practical work (e.g. laboratory work, fieldwork, clinical procedures, drawing practice). Daily work • Pros o This is likely to be the most sustained means of assessment, and in providing relatively prompt feedback, it serves to reinforce or correct learned responses. o It assists in pacing learning. If a course is broken into units, each assessed on completion, students have regular feedback of what they have mastered (and what they need additional work on). o As the most extensive means of assessment, it has a sustained impact on and improves the quality of student...

...Section L11 Professor Barker Capitol College Abstract The constructs of this paper will compare and contrast the various definitions of critical thinking. Many of the scholarly articles that I have researched for this paper provide insight of various reasoning as to the ideas of what critical thinking means. Although the wording is very different for each definition they seem to overlap each of in a sense. Some of the researchers of these articles read as though they took a deeper reflection of what critical thinking means. Critical thinking is very important for people all of ages. Critical thinking is detrimental to a student’s success. Introduction Critical thinking is essential for students and people in everyday life. Critical thinking skills are what characterizes’ the way a person thinks and learn. Critical thinking is where ideas are formed. Many researchers interpret critical thinking in different ways. Critical thinking can be used in every field such as engineering, teaching, nursing and business. Some people don’t understand truly what critical thinking mean and how to access their full potential. In 2007 a study was conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics which reveals that the United States was behind the curve on critical thinking. Critical thinking methods aren’t being applied in schools as they should be. Students lack problem solving skills which lead to problems with many subject areas such as math and science. Due to not having a full...

...Students will create a picture on a piece of graph paper in quadrant one the students will then rotate the picture 180 degrees. Activity 3: Student will use graphs to answer questions on a work sheet. Interpretation is the second Facet. “Interpretation is defined as interpretations, narratives, and translations that provide meaning” (Wiggins & McTighe, 2005). The goal is to find the meaning of readings, activities and other types of media. Interpretation can leads to gray area. There is not definite right or wrong answer. Activity 1: This activity is works with PEMDAS and why it is important. Students will receive a work sheet with math equation. There will be multiple-choice answers. The student will have to figure out which answer correctly goes with PEMDAS. Activity 2: Students will interpret graphs to calculate future results of student growth in Rochester City school district. Activity 3: Students will be given a worksheet with pictures that are rotated, reflected and translated. It is up to the student to interpret the pictures and decide which term fits each problem. Application is the third facet. “Application is the ability to use knowledge effectively in new situations and diverse, realistic contexts” (Wiggins & McTighe, 2005). Activity 1:...

...Effectiveness of Technology on Math Facts Fluency Name: Institution: Course: Tutor: Date: A. RESEARCH TOPIC The majority individuals would have the same opinion that a key objective of education must involve the expansion of learners’ comprehension of fundamental mathematical theories along with procedures. Every student, comprising learners with impairments and students vulnerable to failure, require gaining the know-how and capabilities that may allow them into “understanding” math-associated questions which they come across everyday at domicile as well as in upcoming work incidences. Unluckily, substantial evidence exists to designate that such goal isn’t being achieved, particularly for kids manifesting learning problems. Because the initial dispiriting outcomes of arithmetic accomplishment discovered with State Evaluation of Schooling Progress (SESP) during 1974, insufficient evidence exists to indicate that arithmetic accomplishment has increased considerably, particularly for learners with impairments (Spinelli, 2012). The intention for this research is to identify technology effectiveness towards fundamental arithmetic fluency. As a component of the classroom educational involvement, the research was carried out with ten learners with fair to stern cognitive impairments registered into a school of special training. This five-week research employed a solitary-case turnaround plan (ABAB). Data...
