4. SUMMARY
• In the university of Vocational Technology majority of students are from B.Tech in
Information and communication technology.
• The present (2017) batch consists of A/L and NVQ both streams.
• When considering there knowledge and attitudes in class rooms we are facing a problem
of are they empowered by basic knowledge?
• Basic knowledge : Ms Office, Citations
• Therefore we have decided to do a research about the basic knowledge of ICT students i
n University of Vocational Technology.

5. • In the society there are plenty of students who done some kind of ICT courses.
• Unfortunately most of these students are lack of practical knowledge and they are
not very much familiarized with Computers anyway.
• In UoVT we are going to check are there any student who came to follow ICT degree
as there higher studies without any basic knowledge.
BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION

6. • Are the UoVT B.Tech in ICT students have basic knowledge of ICT?
• Are students familiar with software that use in day to day works?
RESEARCH QUESTION

7. • Main Objective
• To identify the level of basic ICT knowledge of new batch (2017) in
UoVT B.Tech in ICT.
• Sub Objective
• Suggesting what we need to do for the final result
OBJECTIVES

8. • We are going to evaluate the basic knowledge of B.Tech in Information and
Communication Technology Students of 2017 batch.
• As a overall analysis in the end we are going to suggest some plans to
improve the lack of knowledge of students.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

9. • The Research is Descriptive Research Type.
• Population : 94 Students of B. Tech in ICT
• Sample : 50 Students from population
• Data collection : Questioners
