Abstract:
The use of blogs in an educational setting produces several benefits which include the
promotion of critical and analytical mentally conceiving, incremented access and exposure to
quality content and an accumulation of solitary and gregarious interactions with peers. Blogs
are personal journals written as a reversed chronological hawser of text, images or multimedia,
which can be watched in a web page and are made publicly reachable on the web. Blogs
typically enclose text in the form of a “blog post”, offer the capability for readers to comment
or deliver feedback, comprise archives to past blog posts, and link to other blogs and bloggers
(Anil Madaan, 1998). The present study found out the efficacy of educational blog in erudition
of Computer Programming among Undergraduates. The study was conducted to develop an
educational blog for the methods of teaching Computer Programming and experimentation the
same with a set of students studying for the B.Tech. In Multimedia and finding out its efficacy
over the orthodox technique of instruction. Two equivalent group experimental-designs are
engaged for this research. Researcher has chosen 46 B. Tech in multimedia, students for the
study. From the Marks attained of pre-test, 23 students were selected as control group and 23
students were selected as experimental group. According to the findings of t-test the
experimental cluster students were better than the control cluster students in their gain scores.
Finally, the Researcher concludes that; (a) There was substantial variance between control and
experimental group students in their gain scores. That is the experimental cluster students are
ameliorated than control cluster students in their gain scores. (b)There was consequential
distinction between control and experimental group students in their gain scores for
procurement of the cognizance, understanding, and application objectives.
