A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF 10+2 LEVEL COURSES AND ITS IMPACT ON THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF THE STUDENTS STUDYING IN THIRD YEAR, BACHELOR IN COMPUTER APPLICATIONS
(2020) Almeida, Tracy
The evolving needs of technical education compel students at the 10+ 2 level to adhere to meet the needs of the entry level eligibility criteria. Therefore students who are unable to pursue Higher Education (HE) in engineering and other technical disciplines now stand a chance to enhance their technical knowledge through educational programmes like Bachelors in Computer Science, Bachelors in Computer Applications (BCA) and Bachelors in Information Technology. BCA is one such programme offered at the Goa University in the ten colleges across the state of Goa. College courses are fundamentally different from high school courses and there needs to be a proper choice of subject courses at 10+2 level that will help students to bridge the gap and to meet the standards of HE (Conley et al, 2007). This paper seeks to ascertain the influence of a few educational attributes at the 10+2 level on the performance at TY in the BCAprogramme. It also intends to provide suggestions to students who intend doing HE in the BCAprogramme.
