dc.descriptionThis study focused on the “Assessment of student‟s perception of Joint Admission and Matriculation Board computer based examination in Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra state, Nigeria. The study had five objectives; five research questions and three hypotheses. Relevant literatures to the study were reviewed and all cited authorities were dully acknowledged at the reference. Ex- fact research design was used to conduct the study. The target population of this study was 972 students, which comprise of first year undergraduate students of 2014/2015 session in the faculty of education, Nnamdi Azikiwe University. Sample size of 274 students‟ was selected using simple random sampling technique with Krijcie and Morgan (1970). A structured four modified likert scale questionnaire were adopted and content validity was used to validate the instrument. A pilot study was conducted on 10 students in the faculty of engineering. It gave reliability co-efficient (r) of 0.787 for section B, while C is 0.797 and D was 0.864 alpha using crobanch alpha statistics. Questionnaires were personally distributed by the researcher and only 272 questionnaires were returned representing 99.1% of the 274 questionnaire administered. The mean and standard deviation was used to answer the research questions and Mann Whitney test was used to test hypotheses one, while the Kruskal Wallis test was used to test hypotheses two and three at p≤ 0.05 level of significance. The study revealed that students general perceived Joint Admission and Matriculation Board computer based examination is that computer based examination was a concrete and rewarding experience and also computer based examination as enjoyable than paper based examination. The study also revealed that poor computer literacy affect students‟ perception on computer based examination and lack of a well designed examination instruction on the use of computer based examination. Based on these findings it was concluded that the management of Joint Admission and Matriculation Board should take into cognizance the perception of students towards computer based examination for full operational of the innovative techniques in Nigeria. It was recommended that students should be encouraged to improve their computer literacy so as to enhance their flexibility during the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board computer based examination. The Federal Ministry of Education should totally eradicate the use of paper pencil examination to pave way for full implementation of computer based examination in Nigeria in order to meet up with the world best practices.en_US
