Literature is saturated with research identifying the types and causes of relationships between student achievement and poverty. Less well documented is the magnitude of those relationships and combined impacts of poverty and excessive absenteeism on student achievement. While many studies describe the relationships between these variables, few…

The present study aimed at examining the effect of e-learning and students 'digital literacy towards their learning outcomes. It was designed in quasi-experimental research with post-test-only control group within 2x2 factorial design. The sample of the study involved 96 vocational students obtained from random sampling technique. Two instruments…

The problem addressed through this study was the potential effects of the lack of parent participation at individualized education plan (IEP) meetings on students' achievement. The research question in this study examined the relationship between parents of high school students with disabilities (SWD) attendance at annual IEP meetings and…

I examined the relationship between career readiness and academic success among a sample of approximately 500 11th grade students from selected rural school districts in South Carolina. There is limited research regarding the relationship between career readiness and academic success. I used R2W assessments to measure career readiness and the…

The purpose of this study was to observe how within-person variation in motivation, self-efficacy and academic performance scores are correlated or can be predicted. The reciprocal association between these variables was analysed through a four-wave longitudinal study and a within-person analytical approach (random intercept cross-lagged panel…

The study explored the effect of the activity-based approach (ABA) on grade 11 learners' performance in solving two-dimensional (2D) trigonometric problems. A sequential explanatory design was used, starting with the quantitative, followed by the qualitative method. The experimental group (EG) and the control group (CG) were facilitated using ABA,…

Purpose and Method of Study: This study aimed to determine variables or combinations of variables that impact the hope levels of tenth- to twelfth-grade students at a large urban public school in Oklahoma. While many factors influence students' hope, there is little information about the impact of HAE and PSC, in addition to the variables grade…

This study investigated the effect of applying "participant modeling" followed by a role play on grade eleven scientific students' achievement and motivation in biology. Students usually face problems in understanding difficult biology concepts like Krebs cycle which is composed of a series of biochemical reactions with many molecules…

This study was conducted with 11th- and 12th-grade high school students in western Florida. These students were not meeting the required achievement level in English language arts needed for graduation. This qualitative study investigated the barriers that hinder high school students' achievement in English language arts as a graduation…

Digital technology has transformed classrooms, enabling new teaching methods. With widespread personal technology, students' devices can enhance learning but also cause distractions. This research amplifies secondary students' voices, exploring how they use technology and how it should be managed. The study addresses the question: What…

In the post-pandemic world, UNESCO advocates the development of open educational resources (OER) to remedy the financial pressures of students and their families. We thus conducted a dual-cycle action research study aiming to develop a sustainable model with minimal cost for creating OER for secondary school mathematics teachers and students. Our…

This research article explores the impact of an intervention aimed at enhancing hope among senior secondary school students. The investigation was carried out in the Bokaro district of Jharkhand, India. The study focuses on the changes observed in scores on the Children Hope Scale (CHS), Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (SLSS), and Self-Worth…

The extent to which students identify with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (i.e. STEM identity) is crucial in influencing them to pursue STEM-related careers after compulsory education. Given the predictive power of this construct, this study explores Thai students' STEM identities by focussing on three components (i.e. interest,…

Assessment for learning (AFL) is a pedagogical approach that enhances student learning outcomes through high-quality feedback. This study investigates the effectiveness of integrating the feedback loop model (FLM) with AFL to improve students' engagement and understanding of physics, specifically in kinematics and motion dynamics. The study…

In the realm of science education, traditional teaching methods face challenges in catering to diverse learning preferences. This study investigates the efficacy of Khan Academy Videos (KAVs) in improving educational quality, specifically in rural thermodynamics instruction. The research involved 88 students and one teacher, with one group taught…
