Abstract :
This study investigates the causes of poor academic performance among university students. Records indicate that some subjects have failure trends over the years while others do not. The survey on 295 students indicates the existence of knowledge gap between lecturers and students in various cognitive skills during the teaching and learning process resulting to non-conformance to quality standards. Probable internal and external factors have been observed, identified and analyzed for corrective stance by the team. Some alternative teaching approaches have been applied, understudied and tested. Results indicate that Neuro Teaching brings about better students´ performance more specifically in those subjects with perennial negative trends.
