Evaluation of the Progress, Drawbacks and Plan of Change Army Activities of Students and Teachers in Bule Hora University College of Natural and Computational Science

Abstract

The study was conducted at Bule Hora University College of Natural and Computational Science on Evaluation of the Progress, Drawbacks and Plan of Change Army activities of Students and Teachers. Cooperative learning is one of the most commonly used forms of active learning method through an individual’s interaction with their environment and peers. Cooperative learning is largely based on the idea that students can learn through social contexts. The main objective of this action research was to assess the current status of Change Army activities in 1 to 5 group work within Faculty of Natural and Computational Science in Blue Hora University.  For the purpose of this reseatch stratified random simpling (SRS) were considered.  From these all total students and teachers, samples were taken from 1^st year upto 4^th year of regular students (129) and all department teachers (39). Within NSC majority of teachers and students have basic information about the purpose and importance of 1 to 5 grouping. Based on teachers’ evaluation, 43.6% of the respondent gave “Good” mark and 25.6% gave “poor”. However, based on students’ evaluation, 34.9% of the students gave “Good” mark and 22.5% “poor”. This indicated that 1 to 5 group activities within NSC has been implemented below satisfaction. This indicated there were many problems in understanding of the purpose of Change Army. Hence, it will be better if there is a tangible clarification about the purpose of Change Army activity and quick response for every question as much as possible.
