Abstract
This thesis entitled "Student Perception Towards the Internal Assessment in
Semester System" is a demanding topic of the research. The main objectives of this
study were to explore the student's perception towards the internal assessment system
in mathematics education and to analyze the improvement process of internal
assessment system in mathematics education. This study was based on a mixed-
method research design. This study was delimited within the Kathmandu valley. This
study was based on Master level student who studied in semester system. A total of
110 sample students were selected by stratified sampling from three different colleges
for questionnaire and among them 6 students by purposive sampling for interview. In
this study questionnaire and interview guidelines were the tools of data collection.
This study found that students were very positive towards the internal
assessment system. But dissatisfied with the process of internal assessment system.
This study found that, 80% compulsory participation was not followed by all the
college. Similarly, this study found that presentation is very essential tool to develop
the teaching skill to all the student. This study also found that, home assignment is
knowledge expanding factor of our assignment system. This study also found that,
internal exam (class-test) was conducted as in summative manner rather than
formative manner. This study also found that, authorities were not properly
disseminating the internal assessment system to all the students, teacher and all the
colleges. It was also found that, students follow the rules, teachers to be sincere,
administration support to both student and teacher, university conduct orientation
programme to all the teachers, will help to improve the assessment system in
mathematics educations.
