Foreign Literature and Studies

According to Wighting MJ (2006), the use of computers in the

classroom affects the sense of learning in a community among
high school students. Aryatuha (2007) studied ‘Relationship
between computerization and organizational effectiveness’ and
found that the availability of computer hardware and software
should be accompanied with training of the users and constant
technical support. Without this, even though high
quality hardware and software are available, they could be wasted
or remain underutilized by the users. According to Noushad
Husain(January 2010),Computers and communication
technologies are one of the greatest contributions of present day
science and technology and in the growth and development of the
country. As computers are now being used in all sectors of life. In
a society where most of the work is becoming computer based,
education, teaching and learning can’t resist their use for a longer
period to cope with the world. Computers are a powerful tool in the
learning environment and a wide variety of techniques of using
computers in education have emerged over a period of time and
are now becoming very common in use. The computers have a
vast potential for instruction in all educational environments
ranging from schools to universities. They were considerably
exploited towards this purpose under the name of Computer
Aided/Assisted Instruction (CAI) and Computer Managed
Instruction (CMI).

According to Lee and etc.(January 1,1994),the proliferation of

microcomputers since the early 1980s brought with it a high
demand for computer literacy education in all academic disciplines
as well as in the workplace. Instructors of computer literacy are
sometimes ineffective because they face a diversity of background
among students. Based on data collected from 140 business
students, the results suggest that the students' SAT scores, high
school rank, computer usage at work, and prior knowledge of
programming may be used for grouping students so as to better
tailor the content and pace of the computer literacy course to the
students' needs. The computer tools are more sophisticated than
traditional computer facilities, such as on-line lexicons, word
counters, spell checkers, and syntactic analyzers. They are not the
metrics of overall text difficulty, such as Flesch-Kincaid Grade
Level (Klare, 1974-5) or Lexile scores (Stenner, 2006), which
primarily depend on word length, word frequency, and sentence
length. Instead, the tools we have in mind analyze texts on more
subtle linguistic, discourse, and psychological constructs. The
systems are aligned with multilevel theoretical frameworks that
identify the representations, structures, strategies, and processes
at multiple levels of language and discourse (Graesser & in press;
Kintsch, 1998; Snow, 2002) According to Fleischer, Håkan (06 Jan
2017),The research on one-to-one computer learning settings
shows what students do while using computers and how much
they use them. It is believed that students are highly motivated by
having computers of their own and show improved grades, but few
studies can confirm this belief.You sentAlbirini (2006) stated that
technology competence comprises not only technology knowledge
but also the skills and experience essential to put them into use.
Technology
44 competency allows the teachers to turn into most efficient
individuals in dealing with daily tasks such as to communicate with
the students’ parents; to keep records; to do research in their
option domain; and to prepare presentations. Computer
competence, therefore, can be observed in terms of teachers
beliefs concerning their knowledge, basic skill, and capability of
performing essential functions using the computer. Also he
reported that computer competence refers to educators’ beliefs
about their computer knowledge and skills. Computers are an
essential part of many workplaces and employers need both men
and women with computers skills. Although some come to the job
with computer related education, many workers need training or
retraining to keep up with new computer hardware or software.
Connelly. (2013) cited that schools have always played a vital role
in ensuring that students have the skills needed for the job or
career they have chosen. The key function of education is to fully
prepare students for life after schooling preparation for the world of
work is a necessary and vital part of that equation. As our society
and economy continues to evolve, it may be time to rethink how
public education aids students in choosing career and education
pathways. Akankwasa (2006) conducted a study on ‘Problems
affecting the levels of computer use for instructional purposes by
technology teachers in government schools’. He found out that
although many teachers share beliefs that educational technology
could promote learning and that the use of ICT is desirable, they
are reluctant to use educational ICT because of insufficient
support and resources. Knezek et al. (2000) reported that
educators with higher levels of skill, knowledge, and tools would
exhibit higher levels of technology integration in the classroom You
sent.

Papert (1980) studied ‘Children computers and powerful ideas’. He

understood the importance of digital media and how it could be
used to enable children to learn better within a constructivist
learning environment. He believed that in order for children to
assemble and modify their ideas, the traditional tools such as
pencils, copies and texts were inadequate. He felt that computers
were the appropriate tool to enable the learner to take control of
the learning process. He found that a complementary relationship
exists between technology and constructivism, the implementation
of each one benefiting the other. Recent attempts by educators to
integrate technology in the classroom have been within the context
of a constructivist framework.
Bacround of The Study

“As every learner's ability and progress in learning is unique, not all
learners progress at the same pace”. Every learner has different
abilities and capabilities in life. Skills are very important in
Computer System Servicing NC II students dealing with problems
on computers and their understanding when copying their learning.

The issues on competency on computer literacy Assessments of

computer literacy, even though they vary, indicate that there are
substantial variations in levels of You sent computer literacy
among students in the lower years of secondary school. In
technologically developed countries, approximately one half of
Year 8 students demonstrate proficiency, or advanced proficiency,
in computer literacy, but up to 10% have very limited computer
literacy. Assessments of computer literacy can also provide the
basis for progression maps that could be used to inform curriculum
development. John Ainley (2018) Therefore, this study aimed to
determine the relationship between hands-on and level of
competency in Computer System Servicing NC II trade area
