...today’s University students among the reasons contributing to an ever increasing trend of working during education could be the increasing financial pressures from higher college tuition and fees, the necessity of gaining social experiences, and academic requirements for practical internships. The likelihood of working while in school for college students has been increasing particularly as the cost of education has also been rising. Noni’s and Hudson (2006) Academic performance is measured by the standing of rates of grades of student in every subject. Having a high level of performance on the academic area of a student suggest its competency and high level of confidence on its certain field. Students have their own attitude towards learning and achieving a high level of academic performance. The development of their enthusiasm towards succeeding in their own field varies. In order for a student to succeed he needs to be armed with strategies and techniques that will supplement his desire to reach his goals. Crede and Kuncel (2008) One way is to have an efficient and adaptive study habit. This phenomenon can be linked to multi factors that affect their study habit. Such factors can be found in their environment, these includes the type of house they live in; the people around them and the level of support they give; the student and his family’s daily routines; the availability of resources for studying; and also his family’s economic status. Since working students appears to have...

...INTRODUCTION Many students of HRM in Taguig City University work part-time Employment during school could improve grades if working promotes aspects that correspond with academic success, such as industriousness or time management skills, or instead reduce grades by reducing time and energy available for school work. Otherwise, working might be associated with academic performance, yet not directly influence it, if unobserved student differences influence both labor supply and grades. Unmotivated students might neither work for pay nor receive good grades because they put little effort into the labor market or school. In contrast, HRM students uninterested in academics might work long hours that would otherwise have been devoted to leisure. Students might misjudge the link between college achievement and future earnings when making labor supply decisions. If so, obtaining a consistent estimate of how such decisions affect academic performance is prospectively important for policy consideration. Some of HRM students in Taguig City University Students are more likely to work than they are to live on campus, to study full time, to attend a four-year college or university, or to apply for or receive financial aid. Students work regardless of the type of institution they attend, their age or family responsibilities, or even their family income or educational and living expenses. Most HRM students at Taguig City University face many challenges in their already busy everyday lives...

...Abstract The quantitative study of the researchers looked into the environment-centered and time-centered study habits of graduating CIHM students of the UPHSD-Las Pinas. Data were collected using validated self-made questionnaire and were analysed statistically. With overall average of 3.19 means that the CIHM students ‘Sometimes’ prefer environment-centered study habits. The indicator ‘I want to have a good light’ has the highest average of 3.35 which means that the CIHM students ‘Sometimes’ prefer to have a good light. Similarly, with overall average of 3.18 the CIHM students ‘Sometimes’ prefer time management-centered study habits. There is very low relationship between the general weighted average of CIHM students and their study habits, and this relationship is found to be not significant. When CIHM students are grouped according to their general weighted average, results show there are no significant differences in the environment-centered study habits of CIHM students; there are also no significant differences in time management-centered study habits of CIHM students; and, in general, there are no significant differences in the study habits of CIHM students. The researchers conclude that what the CIHM students preferred in their environment when they study, namely, a comfortable chair, a good light and a right room temperature, are exactly the same things that learners would prefer to have when they study. Temperature is as important as the light. No one can study...
