Student Performance Essay

The problem of our study is we need to know the hindrances or the difficulties of selected High School students from South Hill School, Inc.

“An action research was conducted by me to improve the academic performance of the Health sciences students using six sigma DMAIC Model. In that, to explore the outcome (academic performance), the four critical components contributing to the outcome were considered. These include (i) Understanding of the subject matter by the students, (ii) Teaching methodology adopted; (iii) Evaluation methods adopted in the College and; (iv) regularity of the students to the Class. Further, an interactive questionnaire was prepared, in order to discover the hidden perception of the students about the ‘shortcomings’, so that the learning environment of the students and the college will be congenial for mutual growth. The non-conformance levels among the response from the students were corresponding to the Existing training system adopted in the College. While the other categories such as ‘time allocation for completing the course instructions’, ‘exposure to advanced course work’, ‘Quality of lecture’ , ‘Semester & lesson planning system’ and ‘revision / recapitalization methods’ were also indicated by the students as ‘inadequate’ and needs improvement.” (Arun Vijay As
