ANN Application: To Study Effect of Literacy and Numeracy Skills on Electrical Engineering Students’ Performance. Advances in Computing and Intelligent System, 1 (2). pp. 1-5. ISSN 2682-7425
Abstract
In Higher Education level, literacy and numeracy skills is considered vital to the technical based courses and programs such as engineering. In fact, in universities’ studentintake selection process into engineering courses, results of mathematical subjectsis highly considered. This studyinvestigates the effect of literacy and numeracy skills of Diploma Electrical Engineering students’ performance in Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Cawangan Terengganu, Kampus Dungun by using Artificial Neural Network (ANN). This research has been conducted on current final semester students (Semester 5). Three models of ANN aredeveloped to observe the correlation between mathematical subjects and student performance which is measured by using Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA). The development of a model involves constructing several ANN designs and selecting network with the best performance. The historical data from students’ database were used in the training and testing processes. The RegressionCoefficient,(R)values from the developed models was observedand analyzedto see the effect of the mathematical subject to student performance. Itcan be proven that good literacy and numeracy skills in engineering students effect the student’s performance.Keywords: ANN Application, Literacy, Numeracy Skills,Electrical Engineering, StudentsKeywords:Artificial Neural Network, Stu
