Dahil dito sa prosesong ito; matututunan ng isang tao lahat ng bagay at kaalaman (parehong alam at di aakaliing kailangan) na dadalhin at gagamitin nya habang sa tumatanda sya. Pero nakita ng mga mananaliksik na halos nakakalimutan na ng mga tao ang kahalagahan ng pag-aaral. Nakita nila na ang mga estudyante ngayon ay halos binabalewa nalang ang tsaga at hirap na pinagdadaanan ng kanilang mga magulang para lang mapaaral at pagtapusin sila ng pag-aaral. Nawawala na sa isip ng mga tao na kailangan nilang mag-aral at matuto upang makamit nila ang mga pangarap at gusto makuha at magtagumpay sa kanilang buhay.

...Factors Affecting Study Habits of Students In: People Factors Affecting Study Habits of Students Chapter I Introduction Research Background Teachers are educators that teach us what we must learn. They are one of the most inspiring people not only in school but also within our nation. They help us to achieve our goals and dreams in life, and the ones who shape every person’s character. We consider them as our second parents who guide and lead us to the right path. And it truly proves that all educators are such a magnificent person. According to Benito (2000), the best hope for education lies with the teacher; his education is of primary importance. She explained that the quality of education the teacher has to transmit to his students largely depends on the quality of his education. The teacher’s best teaching device is herself (Adams, 1994). It follows then that in order to be an effective communication of knowledge; the teacher should have sufficient background of the subject matter that he/she teaches. In Teaching, Every educator must master his/her lesson plan. And everything that a teacher will teach to his student must be based on her own learning and experiences. Every teacher has their own way of providing knowledge to their students. They have their techniques in teaching for the student to better understand everything about their lesson. There are so many factors that affect students’ performance, and it includes the way of how the teachers communicate to...

This research will focus only on the social factors affecting the academic performance of lower section students to give keener and precise observation because these factors strongly influence on the student performance.

In these situations, children haveopportunities for perspective taking and reflective thinking that can enhance their self-esteemand development. Quality interpersonal relationships can provide trust andcaring that increase children’s sense of belonging, self-respect, self-acceptance, andproduce a positive learning climate.

...A CASE STUDY OF SCHOOL - RELATED FACTORS AFFECTING NIGERIAN SECONDARY SCHOOL PUPILS’ ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE By Dr. Olaniyi Bojuwoye ABSTRACT A ten-item questionnaire containing various descriptions of school-related characteristic which have been found to adversely affect pupils academic performance was administered on 809 teachers and 1012 students of secondary schools from ten randomly selected states in Nigeria. The respondents ranked the characteristics in terms of their degree of effect on pupil academic performance. The result showed that lack of resource materials for teaching, instructional strategies, teacher shortages and teachers’ attitude to work were rated more highly than other characteristics. The result further showed that while the teachers considered lack of resource materials for teaching as having the greatest degree of effect on pupils academic performance, the students on the other hand considered poor instructional strategies as having the greatest degree of effect on pupil academic performance. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND LITERATURE On attaining Independence status as a nation in 1960 what seemed a major concern to most Nigerian leaders then was how education would be accessible to all citizens of the newly created nation. Education was seen as the necessary instrument immediately and essentially for the consolidation of the independence, for securing the new nation against neocolonianism and for making workable the newly established self government...

...Australasian Journal of Educational Technology 2009, 25(5), 645-665 Factors affecting the way students collaborate in a wiki for English language learning Vida Zorko University of Ljubljana Wikis are believed to be a powerful tool assisting the development of constructivist learning environments, as their very nature supports collaboration. However, not much research has been done into the types of collaborative interaction that take place in wikis when used for learning. The main purpose of this study is to explore the factors that affect the ways students collaborate in the wiki environment. To this end, a qualitative exploration of students’ perceptions of collaboration in the wiki was carried out among sociology students at university level who used this environment in blended, problem based learning as part of their English for Specific Purposes course. The research shows that the wiki promoted many collaborative behaviours among students, such as learning from each other and communicating with the teacher. However, the data indicate that the wiki was less successful in facilitating other types of collaboration, such as communicating with peers and co-constructing products, primarily because the students had the opportunity to collaborate in live meetings and preferred to use Messenger and email to communicate. Overall, the results obtained here confirm that the wiki can be used to enhance effective collaboration in a constructivist approach to language...

...the teacher. II. Discussion Classroom Management is a term used by teachers to describe the process of ensuring that classroom lessons run smoothly despite disruptive behavior by students. PRINCIPLES IN CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT Cited by James H. Stronge. 1.) Consistent, proactive discipline is the crux of effective classroom management. If we are proactive in our approach to discipline we prevent unnecessary disciplinary problems from cropping up. We have not to wait for disciplinary problems to erupts for us to take a move. 2.) Establish routines for all dialy tasks and needs. Routinized collection of assignments, passing of papers, and preparation for experiments saves us a lot of time and effort. 3.) Orchestrate smooth transitions and continuity of momentum throughout the day. Smooth transitions and continuity of momentum throughout the day ensure us that every instructional moment is made use of wisely. 4.) Strike a balance between variety and challenge in students’ activities. A variety of school activities will ensure the students’ multiple intelligence and learning styles. 5.) As classroom manager, be aware of all actions and activities in the classroom. While our back faces them when we write on the boar, our “eyes on the back of our heads” will make our students feel that we know what they are doing. This is what Kounin calls with-it-ness....

Longman (1996), emphasized that the instructor’s behaviour affects the student’s performance. She stressed that an instructor should try to be fair and impartial to all students. She added that the instructor’s behaviour or attitudes influence the attitudes of the students. For this, an instruction should possess both personal and professional qualities, which are pertinent in classroom setting. The personality of the teacher may affect the academic...
