Longitudinal Effects of Perceived Parental Overprotection on Korean Male Adolescents’ Academic Achievement

This study aimed to investigate the trajectories of academic achievement of male Korean high school students over a period of 3 years and the effects of perceived parental overprotection. 539 Participants completed the Korean Version of the Parental Bonding Instrument at the beginning of the study, and their language and mathematics scores from the National Achievement Test were recorded every semester for 3 years (n=494 for language and n=493 for mathematics). Latent growth curve models, latent class growth analysis, and multinomial logistic regression analysis were conducted to evaluate the longitudinal data. The results showed an overall decline in academic scores in both subjects; in addition, three latent classes for language scores and four latent classes for mathematics scores were identified. For language, higher maternal overprotection was negatively associated only with Time 1 scores, collected at the beginning of the first year of high school, while higher paternal overprotection was negatively associated with Time 1 scores, as well as changes over time. Higher maternal or paternal overprotection increased the possibility of having lower language scores at Time 1. For mathematics, only higher paternal overprotection was negatively associated with Time 1 scores and changed over time, in addition to increased chances of having lower mathematics scores at Time 1. The results indicate that parental overprotection, especially that of the father, negatively affected male high school students’ academic achievement, suggesting a new perspective of interpreting fathers’ role in sons’ academic achievement in Korean culture, in which mothers’ roles have been emphasized.

A predictive mechanism to measure the academic achievement of high school students in general emergency circumstances – Coronavirus "COVID-19" as a model –: آلية تنبؤية لقياس التحصيل الدراسي لطلاب الثانوية العامة في الظروف الطارئة العامة – جائحة كورونا "COVID-19" نموذجاً –

The study aimed to propose a prediction-based mechanism for measuring the academic achievement of high school students in general emergency conditions, "the Corona pandemic as a model". In order to achieve the objective of the study, the researcher adopted the predictive approach, and the researcher relied on withdrawing data from the Noor system and then processing it statistically. The study sample consisted of the results of (164) students. The results of the study showed a statistically significant correlation between the students’ grades in the course (Math 6) with the mean (m) of the students’ scores in the (Math 1 - Math 5) courses, the statistical significance of predicting the (Math 6) course using the average (m) of the students’ scores in the (Math 5) courses. Within the limits of the study sample used, it is significant compared to the students’ grades with the knowledge of all courses (Math 1 - Math 5) in the multiple regression model, that it is possible to predict the academic achievement of students with a course (Math 6) which is predicted by knowing the average (m) of the scores observed in the Noor system for students In their previous courses (Math 1 - Math 5). In light of the results, the study recommended giving educational decision-makers a proposed scientific solution to measure students’ academic achievement in general emergency conditions “the Corona pandemic as a model” or even for an individual student. The study ended with proposals, the most important of which is conducting similar studies in predicting the measurement of academic achievement in other courses, other educational departments, and a larger sample size.

The Effect of the Online and Offline Blended Teaching Mode on English as a Foreign Language Learners' Listening Performance in a Chinese Context.

With the rapid development of digitalisation, multimedia and network-based communication technology, all walks of life are undergoing change and development driven by the application of the internet to conventional industries. Especially because of the outbreak of coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19), English teaching and learning modes are undergoing revolutionary changes worldwide (Wong et al., 2020). Online courses and materials have become the norm for students, and combined with offline English learning activities, an online and offline blended learning mode has ultimately emerged (Graham, 2006; Whittaker, 2013). Whereas blended learning has been considered in several contexts, it has been less investigated in the field of blended English learning mode for the listening comprehension ability and emotional experiences of young learners of Chinese English as a foreign language (EFL) while doing the tasks. Thus, this study focussed on the achievement and experience of Chinese EFL junior high school students during blended learning using Quizlet software as the online learning tool. This study aimed to explore the following: (1) the effect of the online and offline blended mode on the learning outcomes of students and (2) the experience of students while engaging with blended tasks in terms of their learning interest, attitude, and strategy use in English listening learning. A 4-month teaching intervention involving the online and offline blended mode was conducted in English listening classes. Adopting mixed-methods qualitative and quantitative research, this study examined the engagement process of two classes of students and analysed data from their English listening tests and follow-up in-depth interviews. The results suggested that the blended activity was conducive to enhancing the listening performance of students. Moreover, the attitudes of students toward English listening learning shifted from a relatively negative engagement to a more positive one. Meanwhile, the interest of students grew and their learning strategies became more diversified. These findings have implications for English teaching and learning activity design for young learners.

The relationship between interpersonal intelligence and linguistic intelligence with mathematics learning achievement in high school students

In teaching, the teacher emphasizes identifying the dominant intelligence and learning styles to improve student achievement. However, exploring interpersonal and linguistic intelligence and its relationship to student achievement is still rarely done. This correlational research was conducted to describe the relationship between interpersonal and linguistic intelligence with high school students' mathematics learning achievement. The samples of this study were students of class XI SMA Budi Dharma Cancar Indonesia (n=30). The data were collected using a questionnaire and the pure grades of the students' midterm exams. The data analysis technique uses Product Moment Correlation as a statistical test tool to test the hypothesis of the relationship between two variables after fulfilling the prerequisite test. The results showed a positive relationship between interpersonal and linguistic intelligence and students' mathematics learning achievement. Although this study was limited to two bits of intelligence, it is essential to note that the findings of this study indicate that the number of intelligence at the dominant level can predict learning achievement in school.

 The Pearson product-moment correlation is used to analyze the data and further verifies that students OSEL strongly correlates to their achievements while undertaking online learning.
 Findings: 
 It was reported that the higher the OSEL, the better they achieve. For example, students who have high achievement test scores agree that finding someone knowledgeable in online learning is an excellent solution to solve online learning difficulties. However, since technical and individual obstacles that students encounter could be the challenge, the role of teachers are essential in helping students overcoming them.
 Conclusion: 
 The results of this correlation provide prediction towards pedagogical implications related to successful teaching-learning process, teacher professionalism, and maintaining a high quality school.

The effects of cooperative flipped learning on science achievement and motivation in high school students

ABSTRACT In this study, we compared the effects of cooperative flipped learning (CFL) on science achievement and learning motivation with those of simple flipped learning (SFL) and traditional lecture (TL) using a mixed-methods design. Three classes containing a total of 65 first-year high school students in South Korea were randomly assigned to the CFL, SFL, and TL conditions and taught the chemistry content of an Integrated Science curriculum in 12 lessons over about 4 weeks. In our research design, we paid particular attention to controlling the overall learning time in both the pre- and in-class contexts of the three groups. Our quantitative analysis confirmed that CFL positively affected motivation, but it negatively affected achievement. SFL showed the opposite results. In qualitative analysis, video watching in FL was rated satisfactorily in most cases, but some students reported that they lacked time. CFL inherited both the pros and cons of cooperative learning with regard to in-class interaction, and the effects of SFL depended on individual students’ learning abilities. As a consequence, the balance between pre- and in-class learning should be considered carefully when implementing FL, and lab sessions are suitable candidates for this instructional system.

Effects of teaching a computer programming language via hybrid interface on anxiety, cognitive load level and achievement of high school students

In this study, based on quasi-experimental research, was investigated the effects of teaching Python programming language via Blockly tool, which had hybrid interface, on students’ computer programming anxiety, cognitive load level, and achievement. Participants were 90 high school students, 44 of them in experimental group (hybrid interface) and 46 of them in control group (non-hybrid interface). According to results, there was a meaningful difference between programming achievement scores of students in favor of experimental group while there was no difference in terms of computer programming anxiety between groups. Moreover, after 10-week implementation process, students’ anxiety increased in each group. It was found out cognitive load levels of both groups in the first week were higher than final week. Although both weekly and 10-week intrinsic, extraneous, germane, and total cognitive load levels of experimental group were lower than control group, there was no significantly difference between groups. Consequently, it can be said that programming via hybrid interface, using Blockly, has not an effect on students’ computer programming anxiety positively whereas it helps to keep cognitive load at low level and to increase students’ programming success more. It is recommended that considering these results to make computer programming education is more efficient in high schools and administrators encourage the teachers to use programming tool had hybrid interface such as Blockly.

Analyzing The Productive Disposition And Its Correlation With Mathematics Achievement Of Islamic Junior High School Students

Productive disposition refers to the tendency to see sense in mathematics, to perceive it as both useful and worthwhile, to believe that steady effort in learning mathematics pays off, and to see oneself as an effective learner and a doer of mathematics. Disposition refers not simply to attitudes, but to a tendency to think and to act in positive ways. This study aimed to analyze the productive disposition and its correlation with mathematics achievement of Islamic Junior High School students. A total of 149 Islamic Junior High School students in Jombang was procured as samples. Statistical analysis was based on the Spearman rank correlation and on the t-test. The findings showed that at average, the productive disposition of the Islamic Junior High School students were categorizing low. Furthermore, there was a positive and significant correlation between the productive disposition and mathematics achievement of the Islamic Junior High School students, though the correlation coefficient was not high. An observation was also made to analyze this correlation, and it was found that though some students have good the productive disposition, sometimes they could not do the tests well, because of the condensed curriculum, and also their social activities, which make their mathematics achievement become lower. Another finding was that Islamic Junior High School students need teachers with various mathematics teaching strategies for them to gain better the productive disposition.

Impact of Mother-child Interactiono on Academic Achievement of High School Students

This study examined the role of maternal parent interactions with child in academic achievement of school students. The purpose of the study was to determine how maternal authoritative, permissive and authoritarian parenting styles as well as parent's child relationship influence the academic achievement of students at high school level. The main objective is to find out predictors of academic achievement among high school students. The total sample (400) for the study involved 200 mothers and 200 high school students between the age range of 14 and 16 years. The parents were assessed with Parent Child Relationships scale (PCR) and Parenting Authority Questionnaire (PAQ-R). Academic achievement score of the students were taken as the average percentage of marks obtained by the students in previous two years in their annual examination conducted by their respective boards/schools. The data were analyzed with the correlation and regression (stepwise). The results showed that (i) authoritarian and permissive parenting style and academic performance have negative correlations. (ii) Parent's child relationships like Acceptance and Realistic Role Expectation have significant positive relationship with academic achievement whereas Carelessness and Lenient Standards have negative relationships with academic achievement (iii). The stepwise regression analysis found four pertinent predictors of academic achievement among high school students, i.e., permissive parenting style, authoritative parenting style, parental acceptance and over protection of parents. All four predictors jointly explained 29.6% of total variance in dependent variable.

Promoting student achievement in high school using school funding: evidence from quantile regression discontinuity design

Even though there are many quasi-experimental research in recent literature, there is still no consensus on whether an increase in school funding improves student achievement. Leveraging a natural experiment in South Korea, this study exploits the discontinuity in school funding rules to identify the impact of increased funding on the test scores of high-school students in a national assessment exam. The setting provides a useful context to study the effect of school funding because students typically attend largely similar schools that follow a standardized curriculum, thus eliminating the possibility of the results being contaminated by idiosyncratic variation in school-level characteristics. This study reports mean regression discontinuity estimates as well as quantile regression discontinuity estimates using a procedure suggested by Frandsen et al. (J Econom 168:382–395, 2012). The findings reveal that an increase in school funding, which is equal to approximately 300,000 won per student, results in improved exam performance, particularly in mathematics. Contrary to the stated purpose of the program, however, the evidence suggests that students in the middle and top of the ability distribution gained the most from the intervention, rather than students who are at the highest risk of failing.

Sports team participation and pressures on academic achievement of African American high school students

The study aimed at whether sports participation and demographic characteristics influence academic performance and how sports participation and students’ and parental pressure to academic achievement influence academic performance among African American high school students. The results revealed two-thirds of students participated in sports team programs and the interaction effect of sports team participation and parental pressure in combination influenced high school students’ academic performance in the collected sample. The finding suggests administrators, coaches, and teachers can recognize the relationships and can apply appropriate programs to support students. Furthermore, it lays the foundation for future work on establishing a better way to balance sports participation and academic achievement by controlling the pressure students place on themselves and receive from their parents.
