ABSTRACT
The study investigated the effects of continuous assessment practice on students’ performance in Senior Secondary School Chemistry in Uyo Local government Area of Akwa Ibom State. The application of assessment methods for the overall evaluation of educational programmes is indispensible and one of the interesting and positive features of assessment is its ability to predict future performance and provide bases for comparison and decision as to the level of learners’ progress. Survey research design was employed and the sample consists of 100 SS1 students randomly selected from two public secondary schools in Uyo Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State. The continuous assessment and examination scores were collected for three sessions; 2013/2014, 2014/2015, 2015/2016, and questionnaire administered to find the effect continuous assessment has on the performance of students. The data was analysed using t-test and the null hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed a significant effect between continuous assessment and the performance of students in the examination scores of secondary school chemistry students. The recommendation among others was that continuous assessment should be given serious consideration by teachers and school administrators to improve the quality of the assessment method and ensure transparency in continuous assessment since it explains and predict the future academic performances of students.
