The Relationship between the Level of Physical Activity and the Academic Achievement in High School Students

The aim of our research is to investigate the relationship between physical activity level and academic achievement in high school students. 12 of 13 Anatolian High Schools in Balikesir Central Districts were included in our research. A total of 334 (Female n = 190, Male n = 144) students selected from the 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades from these schools by random sampling method participated in the study. While the International Physical Activity Evaluation Questionnaire was used to determine the physical activity levels of the students, the academic achievement scores of the students were obtained from the e-school system of the Ministry of National Education. Descriptive statistics of the data obtained from the research were used to determine correlations between variables, Manova and Anova to determine whether there was a difference between variables, Post-Hoc Tests and Independent Sample “t” tests were used to determine the source of the differences between the variables. The significance level (p < 0.05) was taken. There was a negative correlation (p < 0.05) between students’ academic achievement levels and physical activity levels. While there were significant differences in academic achievement according to gender and grade level, significant differences were found in physical activity only in terms of gender (p < 0.05). As a result, it was determined that academic achievement was negatively affected by physical activity, female students and 12th grade students had better academic success, while male students were more active. Considering the health benefits of physical activity as well as the importance of academic success for students to settle in a university, these two concepts should be considered together, and new plans should be developed.

High School Student Achievement and College Enrollment in the Absence of School Improvement Interventions: Evidence from Kentucky

One challenge of accountability in education is balancing local discretion over the use of resources with state and federal constraints designed to improve performance. This study isolates the impact of ending restrictive federal interventions on high school achievement and college enrollment for students attending failing schools prior to the implementation of new state-level interventions. Based on a difference-indifferences analysis, 12th-grade students attending schools that had No Child Left Behind interventions recently waived were 3-4 percentage points more likely to enroll in a four-year institution and 2-4 points more likely to enroll full-time compared to students attending underperforming schools not previously subject to interventions. These positive effects increase with the severity of intervention removed and were concentrated among white, male students with a relatively low probability of college enrollment. The analysis found no evidence that waiving interventions affected high school achievement. The findings offer insights into the consequences of policies that allow for high levels of local discretion over the use of resources as well as interruptions that can occur during the transition between accountability models.

Examining the Relationship Among Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction, Self-Efficacy, and English Achievement of Vocational High School Students in Emergency Remote Teaching

In the context of Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT), this study is conducted to investigate how learning from home impacts Vocational High School students and how their success in English is linked to their well-being, particularly their satisfaction with fundamental psychological needs. To ensure the robustness of the study, questionnaires assessing Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction, Self-efficacy, and socio-economic factors underwent validation through AMOS software. Notable differences in achievement across eight majors were examined using a one-way ANOVA. The connections among socio-economic factors (such as gender, parental background, and gadget availability), Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction, Self-efficacy, and students' achievement were delved into through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The findings reveal that all student factors, with the exception of Self-efficacy, exerted a significant impact on achievement. It is noteworthy that Self-efficacy exhibited a negative impact, while the presence of gadget availability had the most pronounced positive effect. Interconnections among all these factors were also observed. In summary, the study highlights the influence of various factors, such as socio-economic background and psychological well-being, on the English achievement of Vocational High School students during ERT in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. The encouragement of students to focus on their well-being, consideration of their family background, and ensuring access to gadgets are deemed critical for achieving better English scores. Future studies can delve deeper using qualitative data and different analysis methods. The inclusion of perspectives from teachers, principals, or parents, coupled with the utilization of standardized English tests, could provide a more comprehensive understanding.

Flipped Classroom in Post-Pandemic: Evaluating Gender Divide and Impact on the Student’s Achievement in Mathematics

Flipped classroom in mathematics is gaining momentum even in post-pandemic. This innovative pedagogy is beneficial in delivering mathematics content even when the number of learning sessions is reduced due to the restrictions of holding in-person classes. This study explores the effect of flipping mathematics classroom on the achievement of high school students and if a gender divide exists. One-Group Pre-test and Post-test Design was employed. Fifty-seven (57) Grade 10 students were the respondents of this study of which there were twenty-five (25) male and thirty-two (32) female students. Findings revealed that students improved their scores in the given mathematics assessment after being exposed to the flipped classroom. Consequently, the Mean Percentage Scores increased significantly from Low Mastery to Average Near Mastery. However, no gender divide was found in a flipped classroom. Overall, the flipped classroom can potentially increase students’ achievement in mathematics.

Green cover and socioemotional and academic outcomes of school-age children. The case of Santiago, Chile

The association between green cover and health indicators has been extensively studied, pointing to important impacts on stress reduction and emotional outcomes. In addition, several studies have established a positive association between vegetation and children academic achievement. Nevertheless, none of these studies have attempted to measure the association between vegetation and socioemotional and academic outcomes of school-age children concomitantly, which is key to help understanding how vegetation could mediate these associations with children academic performance. In this work, we use socioemotional and standardized math and reading tests data, as well as satellite-derived vegetation cover data, to evaluate the association between green cover over socioemotional indicators and academic achievement of primary, middle and high-school students for the city of Santiago. Our main results suggest that school green cover is associated with improvements on socioemotional outcomes, but not directly with academic achievement. Moreover, these associations are concentrated on 8th and 10th grade students. However, only green cover within schools, but not in the surroundings, shows an association with socioemotional outcomes. Overall, evergreen vegetation presents the strongest association, followed by grass. Vegetated areas dominated by deciduous trees seem not to be associated with neither socioemotional nor academic outcomes.

English learning anxiety and English learning demotivation in South Korean third-year high school students

Because of the high level of anxiety and academic pressure associated with the college entrance exam in South Korea, this study investigated the effects of English learning anxiety on English learning demotivation and academic achievement in third-year high school students. To determine the correlations of the effect of English learning anxiety on both components, 249 participants were selected from nine third-year student classes at an academic high school in Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, to complete questionnaires, the data from which were analysed using quantitative statistical methods. The regression analyses revealed that the English learning anxiety in the male and female students with top grades had positively and significantly affected their academic achievement. However, except for high-level male learners, demotivation was not found to have any effect on student achievement. The results suggested that it is important to design education-friendly measures to enhance third-year high school student motivation and alleviate any excessive anxiety.

Does Parental Income and Education Improve Academic Achievement?: A Case of Public High School Students at Tangerang Municipality

Does Parental Income and Education Improve Academic Achievement? A Case of Public High School Students at Tangerang Municipality. Objectives: The study aims to examine the relationship between parents' socioeconomic status and the academic achievement of public high school students in Tangerang City. Methods: This research is a cross-sectional survey of 660 public high school students—the primary data was obtained through a questionnaire that has been tested for validity and reliability. The questionnaires were distributed to the participants using the students' WhatsApp groups. The author used a binary logit regression model for data analysis. Findings: The results showed that socioeconomic status significantly impacts on academic achievement. Parents with high socioeconomic status are more likely to improve their child's academic results. Meanwhile, the composition of parents' socioeconomic status that contributes more dominantly to increasing academic achievement is the father's income and education and the mother's education, but not the mother's income and asset. Conclusion: Thus, one of the determinants of the academic achievement of high school students is the socioeconomic condition of their parents. The results of this study provide not only an expansion of the education science and education economics literature but also empirical implications for parents and secondary education policymakers. Keywords: academic achievement, parental income, parent education. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpp.v13.i2.202318

GLMM tree의 적용 가능성 탐색

This study aims to introduce the GLMM tree and show its usefulness in educational research. The GLMM tree model is an extension of MOB to be applied to multilevel data, which detects subgroups with differential effects to estimate the fixed-effect in each subgroup and the random effect by the cluster to which each observation belongs. In this study, we identified the differential effects by detecting subgroups of afterschool programs and private tutoring participation in mathematics achievement of second grade high school students. Using the GLMM trees, students were divided into 16 and 15 subgroups respectively according to the participation of afterschool programs and the private tutoring. Also, cognitive and affective variables such as pre-mathematics achievement, interest in mathematics were selected as nodes. For both treatments, it was confirmed that the fixed-effect was estimated differently for each subgroup. Based on the results, we compared the differential effects of participation in afterschool programs and private tutoring and factors selected as nodes of models, and discussed the potential of the GLMM tree model in educational research.
