ABSTRACT
This research work studied the relationship between student’s gender and academic achievement in Computer Science in Onicha Local Government Area of Ebonyi State. Part of its purpose was also to compare the achievements of private and public school students in Computer Studies. Four research questions were asked to give focus to the study. Four hypotheses were also developed to be tested at 0.05 level of significance. The research design adopted for the study was the expo-facto design since there was no special treatment given to the subjects and there was no control group. The population of the study comprised of all SS3 students in four schools in Onicha Local Government Area. Simple random sampling was used to draw two co-educational schools from the study area - one private school and one public school. A total of 160 students composed the sample of the study. One instrument was used, Computer Studies Achievement Test (CSAT), a 30-item multiple choice test developed by the researcher for the purpose of data collection. CSAT was administered to the students in the private and public schools, after which their scores were recorded and used to answer four research questions that guided the study using mean and standard deviation, as well as test the three hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance, using independent samples t-test.
