Abstract

Recently, taking an educational loan is a major concern of matter in the economics of education research. The researchers attempted to understand the perception of postgraduates’ students about the student credit card scheme launched by the state government of West Bengal in India. Three hundred fifty-four students were chosen randomly from 12 universities. Five points Likert-type scale was used to measure the perception of the students about student credit card. The researchers used a quasi-mixed method. Data were analysed by the use of descriptive, inferential statistics and also qualitatively by thematic analysis. The study found that the perception of the postgraduates ‘students about student credit card schemes has changed significantly due to their duration of study in university. But, perception about the same scheme has not been influenced by gender, age, academic stream, residential location, family income, caste category, availed or not of the scheme. Study also found that thirty six percent of students are satisfied with the scheme. On the other side large percent (47%) students are opposing the scheme in terms of either they feel not satisfied directly, or criticise this policy due to various reasons. However, some students favour it as the scheme has an inherent motive to promote students to receive higher education.

Abstract

This study intended to look at the connection between students' achievement in mathematics and their test anxiety at higher secondary level. Data were collected from 205 students in six schools located in Gazole Block, Malda district, West Bengal, using a descriptive survey method. For selected participants, a multistage method of sampling was employed. Data were gathered using the Anxiety Test Scale for Students, developed and standardized by Asamoah (2018) guaranteeing validity and reliability. For data analysis, the mean, t-test, and Pearson correlation coefficient techniques were applied. The results showed that there were notable differences in test anxiety between urban and rural students, as well as between male and female at the higher secondary level. However, there was no discernible difference in math proficiency between males and females or between rural and urban students. A negative correlation was observed between test anxiety and achievement in mathematics, suggesting that higher levels of test anxiety correspond to lower mathematics achievement scores. Conversely, addressing test anxiety among higher secondary students may contribute to enhance their performance in mathematics.

Abstract

Metacognition and learning styles play a crucial role in shaping academic achievement. This study investigates the connection between these factors and their impact on students' academic performance. This research seeks to identify the connections between metacognition, learning styles, and academic achievement and to ascertain whether or not these elements significantly impact students' performance. A descriptive survey design was adopted, and 270 undergraduate humanities and science students from Hooghly district colleges in West Bengal, India, were selected. The Metacognitive Inventory (MCI) and the Learning Style Inventory (LSI) questionnaires were used for data collection. Pearson's Product Moment Correlation and multiple regression analysis were conducted to analyze the data. The study's results depict strong positive relations between metacognition and academic performance, learning styles and academic performance, and metacognition and learning styles. The research concludes that both metacognition and learning styles have a general impact on academic performance, implying that students with greater awareness of metacognition and responsive learning styles would perform better at college.
