Study Of Public And Private Schools Student Performance In Shorthand
(A Case Study Of Enugu South Local Government Area)
The purpose of this project is to study the public and private schools student performance in shorthand in Enugu South Local Government Area of Enugu state. In eight selected schools in Enugu Educational Zone.
The following schools were studied public schools
i. Command Secondary school Enugu
ii. Girl’s High school Awkunanaw, Enugu
iii. Idaw River Girl’s secondary school, Enugu
iv. Union secondary school, Awkunanaw Enugu
PRIVATE SCHOOL
a. Queens Comprehensive Secondary School, Enugu
b. Salvation vocational college Enugu
c. Immaculate commercial college, Enugu
d. Niger school of commerce, Enugu
The students of two different schools were given a test on shorthand at speed rate of 60 words per minute to determine their performance.
In addition, teachers at the selected schools were interviewed on the factor’s responsible for either better or poor performance of students in the subject.
From the data collected, the researcher was able to assess the performance of both schools in the study. These were treated in details in chapter four but some of them are that constant practicing, dedication to studying the subject and having interest on the subject enhances performance while poor performance emanate as a result of lack of interest, irregular attendance to classes etc. it was established that student’s in private schools performed better in the subject.
Again, the populations of the student’s offering the subject in both schools are poor. Among the recommendations are that preference shorthand theory should be incorporated in the production work from beginning to the end of student’s graduation and adequate facilities should be provided in relating to lecturers.
In addition, business English should be effectively integrated into the day-to-day teaching of shorthand.
