Bachelor Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Pedagogy - Higher Education, University of Peradeniya, language: English, abstract: This study was conducted to determine the factors relating to the academic performance of students following the Crop Science module in the Faculty of Agriculture of the University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka. Factors relating to academic performance might be different in Universities as well as in different departments of a given Faculty. This study aims to investigate the factors relating to performance of students who followed the Crop Science modules in the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Peradeniya from 2002 to 2012. Secondary data were collected from the Senate Office of the University and the Administrative office of the faculty. For data analysis, Box plot, Two sample t-test, Spearman correlation coefficient, Pearson's correlation coefficient, General Linear Model (GLM) of SAS, Simple Linear Regression, Principle component Analysis and Cluster Analysis were used. The performance of students in the Crop Science modules was also compared with other department. Using Cluster Analysis, the subjects of the two Crop Science modules were classified. According to the results, the different performances were found in different departments and performance of students in the Crop Science department was at an average level. The performance of students of the Crop Science department was lower than other departments. However, this was mainly due to large number of students in the Crop Science modules. Due to this the average performance gets pulled down. When only the top 15 students were considered the performance of students in the Crop Science modules was very high. A significant difference was found between the two Crop Science modules in terms of GPA and the better performance was observed in Advanced Crop Production Technology Students.
