“A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF SCIENTIFIC ACHIEVEMENT IN GOVERNMENT AND NON-

GOVERNMENT SCHOOL AT SECONDARY LEVEL”

Dr. Udaivir Sharma

ABSTRACT:-In this science and technology oriented society every citizen should be able to understand

the role of science. The study of the science is helpful to acquire knowledge and skills for learners’

future life and occupation. This is essential for achieving concrete results in terms of economic and

social progress.

Introduction

In these days where knowledge is multiplying

day by day, where new methodologies,

strategies and technologies are being invented,

where new approaches and systems are being

explored :where new models are being initiated

to redesign and reshape the prevailing academic

environment in institutions to keep pace with

increasing knowledge in each sphere, where

educational literature is being enriched by new

innovations the objective of making learning

more promising and maximally effective to the

learner can be achieved by making instructions

individualized.

In India science and technology have

been in use since long. But in recent years,

India as nation is heading for rapid

individualization based on the use of high

technology such efforts needs automation and

the use of the computers; these efforts have to

measure requirements. First there is a need of

highly trained experts who can build indigenous

systems of science and technology; Second

scientifically literate citizens, who can take

decisions about the proper use of science

technology?

In this science and technology oriented

society every citizen should be able to

understand the role of science. The study of the

science is helpful to acquire knowledge and

skills for learners’ future life and occupation.

This is essential for achieving concrete results

in terms of economic and social progress.

Science satisfies the curiosity of the

learner regarding nature and other scientific

phenomena. Thus it is helpful in developing

scientific attitude.

Objectives of the study

1.To find out the level of achievement in science

at secondary school level students.

2.To find out the achievement in science of

secondary level Hindu and Muslim students.

3.To compare the achievement in science of

secondary school level girls and boys.

4.To compare the achievement in science of

secondary school level students studying in

Government and Non-Government schools.

Hypotheses of the study

1.There is no significant difference between

Hindu and Muslim boys of Government schools

at secondary level in the achievement of science.


Hindu and Muslim girls of Government schools



Hindu and Muslim boys of Non-Government

schools at secondary level in the achievement of

science.


Hindu and Muslim girls of Non-Government

schools at secondary level in the achievement of

science.

Conclusions

1.The scientific achievement of Government

schools of Hindu boys students’ respondents

are better than Muslim boys students

respondents due to their environmental effects.

2.The scientific achievement of Government

schools of Hindu girls respondents are better

than Muslim girls students due to their

environmental effects.

3.The scientific achievement of Non-Government

schools of Hindu boys respondents are better

than Muslim boys respondents due to their

environmental effects.

Government schools of Muslim girls

respondents are better than Hindu girls

respondents due to their environmental effects.


Government schools of Muslim boys

respondents are better than Government

Muslim boys respondents due to schools

environmental effects and teachers cooperation.


Government schools of Muslim girls

respondents are better than Government

Muslim girls respondents due to schools

environmental effects and teachers cooperation.
