DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A COMPUTERIZED CAREER GUIDANCE INFORMATION SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY:
In the past, ability tests were used in admitting students into University and professional schools, for instance the scholastic aptitude test, which measure, both aptitude and achievement, (the aptitude test measures accomplished skills & indicate what a person can do at present, while the achievements test predicts what a person can accomplished with training).
But the essential requirements for any test include reliability, validity and uniform testing procedure. The test which measure general intelligence ability are often called “Career Test”.
Intelligence test are usually designed and implemented for a group of people to access the nature and course of mental development, intellectual and non-intellectual personality differences associated with age, sex & facial membership, differences that might be attributed to hereditary or to environmental factors, differences among persons at different occupational levels and among their children, intellectual and others traits of a typical group such as the mentally gifted, the mentally retorted, the neurotic and the psychotic.
The topic Career Guidance information system is geared towards selecting careers for candidates who wish to further their education to Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Education.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
A critical look at the operations of the west African Examination council, the organization of (SSCE) show that a part of their examination comes as an objectives questions and the answers are expected to be shaded on a computer answer sheets and marked by the computer, where as the theory section of the examination, which of course carries the greatest mark, is to be marked by WAEC examiners, leaving much to be desired especially in the Nigerian context of it.
Move so, in admitting students into higher schools differences attributed to hereditary or to environmental factors, differences among persons at different occupation levels and among their children; and facial membership may lead to bias, instead of admitting qualified students, unqualified students may also be admitted. The delay in the release of the SSCE and UME result causes anxiety on the student that participated in the examination.
1.3 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The prime objectives of this topic “Career Guidance Information system is to enhance the and guide prospective JAMB students to choose their career in Universities, polytechnics and colleges of Education. This system enables an individual to access the pre-requisites required to enroll into a particular course.
The project aims at an improved situation where the UME and SSCE examination will be matched to ascertain the who goes for what course.
The use of the computer system to achieve this is our area of concentration.
1.4 DELIMITATION:
This work is designed for solely assisting candidates to select their career in high institutions visa vis their SSCE results.
1.5 THE SCOPE OF THE WORK:
The scope of this work is to outline the practical uses of the computer system in the area of Career Guidance.
