“A STUDY ON RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN STUDY HABIT AND ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT IN SCIENCE OF HIGHER SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS”

Abstract

The secondary education, which would be the end of all formal education for the majority of the citizens, must assume the responsibility of providing the necessary training for this purpose.  The first requisite in this connection is to develop the capacity for clear thinking and receptivity to new ideas.  To be able to make ones influence felt and to asset in the formulation of healthy public opinion, an educated person should be able to express himself clearly both in speech and in writing. 

            The school must aim at strengthening the desire for co-operation and afford students opportunities to translate it into practice. A passion for social justice, based on sensitiveness to the social evils and the explication which corrupts the grace of life, must be kindled in the heart and mind of our pupil and the foundations for it should be laid in the school.

In this context, the investigator is also interested in doing research in the field of education.  The investigator is involved in the teaching and learning processes at the Higher Secondary level. Hence the investigator has intended to study about some of the factors contributing to the achievement of students at the Higher Secondary level.
