Study on Direction for Action on Assessment of Undergraduate Long Vacation Training (LVT) Students’ Research Projects | Chapter 1 | Modern Perspectives in Language, Literature and Education Vol. 10

A check list of six concepts was used to analyse the content of undergraduate LVT students' research projects: research objectives, research questions/hypotheses, research design, data collecting equipment, and data analysis and presentation strategies. The research projects of 115 undergraduate LVT students in the last year of the 2009/2010 academic session were included in the study (75 from the department of Vocational and Technology Education, VTE, and 40 from the department of Science Education, Sci. Edu.). A total of 86 research proposals (56 VTE and 30 Sc.Edu) were chosen and reviewed proportionately. According to the survey, just 37.20 percent of undergraduate LVT students at Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University (ATBU) in Bauchi, Nigeria, used the correct data analysis technique on their research assignment. Orientation lecturers on research ideas were among the study's suggestions, as were similar investigations to validate the conclusions or otherwise of this investigation. Furthermore, the article was revised to provide an analysis of the study's findings as well as recommendations for action based on the topic (Assessment of undergraduate LVT students' research projects). The study aimed to provide insight or guidance to undergraduate students, research project supervisors, and members of the academic community who are interested in research work for appropriate methods in writing some aspects of research proposals (such as the relationship between the topic and the study's objectives) and the use of accurate research statistics tools for data analysis.
