Keywords:
cognitive skills, knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, mathematics performance.Abstract
The study determined the cognitive skills and mathematics performance level of the CED students of JRMU-Tampilisan Campus. There were 211 subjects of the study and classified according to gender, curricular year and course. The study showed that there was a slight difference between the cognitive skills means rating of the CED students when grouped according to gender and revealed no significant difference when treated using t-test, when grouped according to course the significant difference existed in the analysis skill only where BSED group performed better compared to BEED group, and when grouped according to curricular year the first year group got the lowest mean rating that caused the significant difference between year level. In terms of mathematics performance, the CED students were described as “good”. No significant difference existed when they were grouped according to gender but when grouped according to curricular year and course a significant difference was noted with the BSED group performing better compared to BEED group.
