Abstract

The attitude of students towards mathematics is most important factor especially for the engineers in their practical observation relating to the understanding of particular problems in their field. To analyze this reservation, the study is conducted using students’ feedback towards the performance of students in Calculus and Differential Equation subjects. During the analysis, a case study of 17A and 17B batches of 1st and 2nd semesters are selected. The marks of the Mathematics subjects namely Applied Mathematics-I (Calculus) and Applied Mathematics-II (Differential Equation) is collected from the students individually using university students portal and the results is calculated by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS v.16) which shows  the overall students’ perception towards the mathematics subjects. The results imply that there is no significant relationship between the marks of calculus and differential equation. Furthermore, the null hypothesis is rejected for the disciplines such as Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Mechatronics and Textile of 17A and Civil, Mechanical and Electrical of 17B Batch. Although the null hypothesis is accepted only for the Electronics department of 17A and Mechatronics, Electronics and Textile of 17B Batch. It is recommended that the teachers must put efforts on the students for the understanding of Mathematics concepts and improve their attitude towards it, so that they can perform better in their future practical life.

Keywords: Student’s feedback, calculus, differential equation.
