Abstract
The performance in Physics, Computer studies and sciences has been low over the years.
The sciences borrow heavily from Mathematics concepts and principles. The research
was on the relationship between performances in Physics and Computer Studies. The
research was carried out from secondary sources based on textbooks, magazines, KCSE
results of selected schools over three years. The findings were based on the summary of
the facts gathered from literature review. The findings were presented objective by
objective, drawing contrast, similarities and identifying on new inferences from the study.
The researcher’s opinion is given at the end.
Recommendations stated were centered on the loop holes identified during the study. It
includes adding value to the teaching-learning experiences in Physics and ICT, enhanced
team teaching amongest Physics and Computer Studies teachers. Secondary schools
should invest in the building of library facilities, equip computer laboratories for the
students to access reference textbooks of sciences, mathematics and ICT. This will
encourage individualized study among students and that will definitely improve
performance.
