| Summary: | The purpose of this study is to identify whether there is any relationship between class size and student performance in the Advanced Financial Accounting I (FAC 400) course. In this study, the student performance is being assessed by failure rate and average marks. This study is conducted by analysing the students' last three semesters' results. The study population in this research are all the full-time Bachelor of Accountancy students who have taken the FAC 400 course in the April 2000, October 1999 and April 1999 Final Examinations. In total, there are 50 classes with the 1,561 students' examination results were gathered in this study. The data were analyzed with Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) release 8.0 and Microsoft Excel release 7.0. The findings show that there is no relationship between class size and student performance. Meaning that, the performance of students from small class size do not have any difference with the performance of students from large class size. |
