...Introduction Many high school students today work part-time. Their reason for working is mostly due to the fact that they lack the financial that they need. Few would reason that their working for only personal leisure. Employment while studying has a greatly effect in their academic performance. Academic performance refers on how student deals with their studies, it is on how they accumulate knowledge while listening or communicate in their skills. Many researchers debate about the effect of part-time job in their academic performance. Some of the researchers found out that having a part-time job could decrease the academic performance of a student, time for bonding with family and especially time for you to relax. Straus and Holmberg (1968) found that the association between grades and students’ employment status is weak. (Coleman, 1974), demonstrated that workers have slightly lower grade point averages than non-workers. But some of the researchers found out that having a part time job could increase the academic performance of a student especially the working skills, responsibility, punctuality, and build self-confidence. In contrast, critics have argued that employment, as it occurs now (in fast-food restaurants, grocery stores, retail stores, and so forth), does not educate or properly prepare students for adult occupational roles (Behn, et al., 1974; Greenberger and Steinberg, 1981; Steinberg, 1982), fails to foster the psychological maturity or development necessary...

...Working Students * By krisSohma * September 15, 2011 * 622 Words * 1776 Views PAGE 1 OF 2 INTRODUCTION ------------------------------------------------- Many college students today 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 schoolwork. 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, 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. A student refers to someone who is formally engaged in learning, especially the one who is enrolled in a school or college. You would call an individual a student if he or she is a learner. Employment then correlates to jobs, vocation, profession, and etc. W would you then define ‘working student’? On another person’s mind, they would think...

...Parts of a computer If you use a desktop computer, you might already know that there isn't any single part called the "computer." A computer is really a system of many parts working together. The physical parts, which you can see and touch, are collectively called hardware. (Software, on the other hand, refers to the instructions, or programs, that tell the hardware what to do.) The illustration below shows the most common hardware in a desktop computer system. Your system may look a little different, but it probably has most of these parts. A laptop computer has similar parts but combines them into a single notebook-sized package. [pic]Desktop computer system Let's take a look at each of these parts. 1 System unit The system unit is the core of a computer system. Usually it's a rectangular box placed on or underneath your desk. Inside this box are many electronic components that process information. The most important of these components is the central processing unit (CPU), or microprocessor, which acts as the "brain" of your computer. Another component israndom access memory (RAM), which temporarily stores information that the CPU uses while the computer is on. The information stored in RAM is erased when the computer is turned off. Almost every other part of your computer connects to the system unit using cables. The cables plug into specific ports (openings), typically on the back of the system unit. Hardware that is not part of the system unit is...

...difference between working and Non-working students in terms of Academic performance. Background of the Study According to a study conducted by National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) in Indiana University from U.S., working college students will have a lower Grade Point Average (GPA) than non-working college students. This could be due to, but not limited by less sleep, more stress, and less study time, it affects the grades, time spent preparing for class, involvement in co-curricular activities, time spent socializing and overall enjoyment of their college experience of working and non-working students at a mid-sized public university. Specific attention is focused upon the differences that exist between students who work on-campus and those who work off-campus. Results show that there are very few differences between working and non-working students. As the number of hours that student work increases, however, the number of hours that they spend socializing decreases. A 2010 survey from the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) in the Philippines, results that can be seen in ched.gov.ph, only half of the working student populations are able to graduate from college and attain their pursued degree. This alarming result shows that majority of working students are having a difficult time to balance their jobs and studies. The purpose of this study is to find out what are the factors, coming from the working environment, that affect these student-employees, in their...
