Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the impact of computer attitudes and social media engagement on students' motivation to learn mathematics. Methodology: The study followed a descriptive-correlational approach involving 181 Grade 11 students from three private schools. Questionnaires and statistical tools were used to gather the data. Results: The results revealed a clear connection between positive computer attitudes and active social media engagement. Moreover, significant evidence has indicated the effectiveness of motivated strategies in improving math learning outcomes. Interestingly, while computer attitudes alone did not significantly influence these strategies, social media engagement had a notable impact. Limitations: Limited generalizability (specific region, Grade 11 private school focus). Contribution: Enhances understanding of the link between computer attitude, social media, and motivated strategies in math learning. Emphasize integrating social media to boost motivation and learning outcomes. Valuable for students, teachers, administrators, and officials in shaping effective strategies. Novelty: One key takeaway is the importance of integrating social media platforms into educational practices to enhance motivation and improve learning outcomes. This study provides valuable insights for students, teachers, administrators, and policymakers as they work together to shape effective learning strategies. Moreover, it offers a unique perspective on the role of technology and social media in fostering motivation and enriching learning experiences.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigated the influence of transformational leadership and the school environment on the organizational commitment of teachers. Research methodology: A quantitative nonexperimental research design with multiple regression analysis was employed. Using the Raosoft calculator, 115 of the 162 public secondary teachers in Davao City were selected as respondents who rated the three adopted questionnaires. Results: The findings revealed a high level of transformational leadership, school environment, and teachers’ organizational commitment. In terms of significant relationships, both transformational leadership and the school environment were moderately positive and statistically significant. The results of the regression revealed that transformational leadership and the school environment are responsible for 46.2% of the variation in the organizational commitment of teachers. However, the results of the coefficients revealed that only the school environment could predict organizational commitment. Limitations: This study only involved 115 respondents and used adopted questionnaires, which might be quite different from the context of the respondents. Contribution: The results and findings of this study can be used as a basis for implementing programs and interventions to address problems with teachers’ organizational commitment. Novelty: Previous studies have only focused on some variables that influence organizational commitment, such as remoteness, emotional exhaustion, inaccessibility of healthy and sufficient school accommodations, and lack of local community linkages without a clear theoretical framework. Fortunately, this study explored other relevant factors, such as leadership and the school environment, as predictors of organizational commitment by establishing related theories to strongly support these variables with corresponding indicators.

Abstract

Purpose: This case study aimed to explore the impact of personal, psychological, and social factors on a non-native English language student and to determine whether the students’ errors in speaking and writing were developmental or transferred. Methodology/approach: The case study was conducted on a single participant (an English language student) at Paktia University, Afghanistan. The data were collected using four different types of instruments. The data were analyzed considering the influence of personal, psychological, and social factors on the participants’ language learning. Results/Findings: The participant faced a great number of problems caused by personal, psychological, and social factors, including lack of social motivation, lack of social practice, economic limitations, and grammatical errors in productive skills usually transferred from the native language or caused by lack of practice. However, as an extraverted and motivated learner, he overcame most of the problems during learning. He improved his speaking skills and pronunciation through self-interactions and online communication. Limitations: This was a single-participant case study; therefore, further studies are needed to generalize the findings to Afghan English language students. Contribution: This study can help policymakers, curriculum designers, educational institution authorities, and English language educators to better identify the factors that affect English language learning. Novelty: This is the only study conducted to examine the process of an individual’s English language learning process in Afghanistan.

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of multimedia instructional materials in teaching basic science concepts to students with hearing impairment in Nasarawa State. Methodology/approach: The study used a questionnaire to collect responses from respondents. Sixty (60) students were sampled, and simple percentages, means, and standard deviations were used to analyze the findings. Results/Findings: The findings of the study showed that the use of multimedia is important, as many students with hearing impairment did understand what was taught. In addition, multimedia instructional materials aid student retention during examinations. When multimedia materials were used by the students, they were motivated by their use during science lessons. The respondents’ responses also identified many challenges facing the use of multimedia instructional materials in teaching science. Limitations: The scope of this study must be expanded. Contribution: This study shows the impact of multimedia instructional materials in teaching basic science concepts and effective  modern methods for students with hearing impairment. Recommendations: The study recommends that students at all levels of education should be given adequate information on the impact of multimedia instructional materials on the teaching of basic science to learners with hearing impairment in order to promote the interest of these students in science subjects.

Abstract

Purpose: The goal of this study is to present the results for job seekers who have graduated from public universities. Methodology/approach: Quantitative and qualitative methods were used in this study. The data were gathered from 200 job-seeker students at Begum Rokeya University, Rangpur (BRUR), between February and May 2022. The study adopted a purposive sampling technique to select respondents and seven case studies to draw qualitative conclusions. The study also employed The chi-squared test was used to test the hypotheses.. Results/Findings: The results of the hypothesis are as follows: there is a strong relationship between economic crisis and highly salaried jobs ( ); a medium relationship between more time to complete graduation and the pressure on job career ( ); a medium relationship between lower preparation for a job and more participants than job capacity ( ); and finally, a medium relationship between cultural influence on respondents’ behavior and alienation from family and relatives ( ). This study also discovered that pressure on students comes from a variety of sources, including family, workplace, cultural hegemony, and academic pressure. Finally, the study concludes that students may reduce demands, the government can increase employment, and jobless youth may develop self-servicing possibilities for living. Limitations: The researchers had limitations because, even without these findings, the environment and appropriateness might be advantageous for graduates instead of pressures. Another barrier is time and money. Contribution: Students, job seekers, and society at large who are concerned about unemployment and the programs that may address it both domestically and internationally will find the research to be helpful.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the significant factors influencing the learning habits of secondary-level students. Research methodology: This study examined the learning habits of 120 students from 12 high schools in three categories throughout three surrounding cities in the Dhaka Division. This study used a descriptive survey research design. A Purposive sampling approach was applied to select three districts from the Dhaka division, and 12 secondary schools were selected from the three districts. These 120 respondents were chosen using a simple random sampling method belonging to classes 6–10 and ages 12–16. Results: The average age was 14.0 2.3 years. The majority of the students (39.2%, n = 47) came from families with limited income, and most of their mothers were not working (77.5%, n = 93). Furthermore, most students (39.2%, n = 47) were from poor-class families. Among the three factors influencing learning habits, two (gender and residence status) were statistically significant, but working mothers were statistically insignificant. Limitations: The results of this study may not accurately reflect the entire situation because data from only 120 students from three districts in the Dhaka division were collected. Contribution: There is no statistical relationship between study habits and students’ mothers’ job status. However, gender and residence had an important influence on students’ learning habits. Novelty: The researcher suggests that educators and school authorities work together to convince students how to build efficient study routines and boost their academic and future achievements.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the correlation between learning styles and students' academic achievement in the field of cost accounting among federal universities located in the south-south region of Nigeria. Research methodology: This study analyzed 556 final-year business education students from four federal universities in south-south Nigeria (source). The sample consisted of 248 students, selected using cluster sampling (source). The primary data were obtained using a questionnaire (source). The statistical method used was the Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) to evaluate the hypotheses and address. Results: The findings revealed a significant positive association between the two variables. Additionally, the analysis underscores the significant positive relationship between the competitive learning approach and students' academic performance in cost accounting in federal universities in the south-south region of Nigeria. Limitations: The sample size was small, which may have affected the reliability of the findings. Contribution: The study would also be of benefit to professional bodies such as ICAN, ANAN, NIT, and others in that they would be aware that students have different styles of learning their course contents. Novelty: The study advised educators to strategically design learning activities that would promote both collaboration and competition, while also establishing high-performance expectations for students. Practical implications: Instructors are also expected to help students develop these three different styles of learning, since cost accounting, a course studied at the university, involves many calculations and concepts.

Abstract

Purpose: This article presents village-based mental health policies in response to sustainable development goals. Research methodology: A qualitative research approach was used in conjunction with library research. Results: According to the findings of this study, the focus of development goals, namely living a healthy and affluent life, has not been on mental health. Furthermore, there are findings on advocacy, research and innovation, partnership, and integration of mental health and other SDGs. Contribution: Based on the findings of this study, several recommendations were made, including developing wise mental health policies in rural areas, increasing mental health commitments and budgets, mobilizing communities to respond to rural mental health policies, and improving treatment facilities and mental health response services. Novelty: Although the goals of sustainable development place a special emphasis on healthy and prosperous lives, insufficient data on mental health have been collected, and mental health policies based on village wisdom have not become a theme that many central and regional governments have implemented.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the factors that influence the performance of students in Mai Idris Alooma Polytechnic Geidam Yobe State in the Northeastern Nigeria. Research methodology: The paradigm of this study is to use the final-year students of Mai Idris Alooma Polytechnic Geidam as independent variables. The dependent variables included factors influencing students’ academic performance. Factors included a) personal conditions, b) study habits, c) home-related aspects, d) school-related aspects, and e) lecturer-related factors. Results: The study identified different factors and the highest impact among the variables that influence the academic performance of students in institutions other than those traditionally studied. Among these five (5) domains, lecturer-related aspects and personal condition factors fall behind school-related factors. Nonetheless, both categories were still deemed highly impactful. Conversely, home-related factors and study habits had little effect on students’ academic performance in the case study. Limitations: The research analysis was limited to a self-report questionnaire gathered from final-year students Mai Idriss Alooma Polytechnic Geidam in October 2023. Contribution: With the outcome of this research, all students, particularly year one prospective students, and those students who are not as academically strong will be informed about the factors that influence their academic performance.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the effects of community radio programs on political education in Ibadan Metropolis, Oyo State, Nigeria. Research methodology: This study adopted a survey research strategy, using a mixed method of quantitative and qualitative data. This was a cross-sectional study in which data were collected at one point in time to examine the effects of community radio programs on political education in Ibadan Metropolis, Oyo State, Nigeria. The study population consisted of students, staff, visitors, and residents of the university and its environment. However, Cochran’s (1977) sampling technique was used to determine a sample size of 384 for questionnaire administration. Data were analyzed through descriptive methods using frequency distributions and percentages, as well as inferential statistics through multiple regression analysis. Result: The results show that the regression coefficient for political news is -0.070 and is statistically significant, political advertising is 0.299 and is statistically significant, and political discussion is 0.199 and is statistically significant. From the analysis, only political news does not have a positive relationship but is significant for political education in Ibadan Metropolis, Oyo State, Nigeria. Contribution: This study has been able to establish the level of relationship between community radio programs and political education in Ibadan Metropolis, Oyo State, and Nigeria. Limitation: The study only covers the Ibadan metropolis due to a lack of funds. Extension to a state, region, or all of Nigeria would have provided a more robust argument.
