Abstract

This study sought to investigate students’ perceptions of assessment for learning and the teaching strategies teachers employ in teaching integrated science. The students were sampled using stratified sampling techniques The sample for this study consisted of 215 senior high school third-year students.   Students’ perceptions about assessment for learning were checked using Assessments Experience Questionnaires. The questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The study found that students have a positive perception of assessment for learning. However, it emerged from the study that students are not assessed adequately in integrated science as prescribed in the science syllabus. Per the responses from the students, the teacher-centered approach seemed to dominate the teaching of integrated science instead of the student-centered approach as prescribed in the science syllabus. It is recommended that there should be proper supervision to ensure that students are well-assessed during the teaching and learning of integrated science.  Again, this study for teaching integrated science implies that a specific teaching method (student-centered) or approach should be prescribed in the integrated science curriculum for teachers to use to improve students’ academic success in integrated science.

Abstract

This case study was to investigate the key opportunities of e-learning during the COVID-19 pandemic in one Cambodian high school. A qualitative method was used in this study. There were three high school students participating in the interview process. Purposive sampling was employed. Findings highlighted that students faced many problems during their online classes. However, COVID-19 also provided good opportunities for them such as acquiring new knowledge, get used to online activities that they did not have experienced before, improve self-responsibility and flexibility, and become independent learners; moreover, the result of this study suggested that e-learning also helped the students to save their time, gas and money. They did not have to drive to school; students and teachers stayed home and used the internet wherever it worked. Further study should be conducted in higher education related to e-learning opportunities, and more people should participate in the study.

Abstract

In theorizing teacher leadership, little is known about the leadership qualities teachers are likely to learn or model within their community of practice. This descriptive qualitative study examined 12 graduate teacher candidates to describe the exemplary leadership qualities of mathematics teacher leaders. After thematic analysis, two categories of exemplary leadership qualities of mathematics teacher leaders were revealed: the leadership qualities they exhibit for students to imitate and the qualities they model from significant others in their community of practice. We conclude that exemplary leadership qualities are a function of role modeling and social learning. Implications for teacher leadership in mathematics education are discussed further in this paper.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore the views of students taking medical doctor (MD) and dentistry (DD) majors on why they were learning what they were learning and to contextualize how these views would impact their studies. A mixed-methods approach was used in this study. An anonymous Google form was utilized to get quantitative data, while FGDs were used to gather qualitative data. The qualitative data were thematically evaluated, and the quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS. The findings demonstrated the factors that motivated them to enroll in the MD and DD programs and the reasons behind this enrollment. These factors include their interest in future career perspectives, academic performance, life experience, role models, and family direction. However, the results also indicated that university profiles impacted students’ decisions about choosing a health science university for these MD and DD majors, which require a long journey to graduate.

Abstract

Return on stock is the chief concern of firm investors. Investors prefer better stock returns, and management focuses on increasing stock returns for wealth maximization. Internal factors are the firm fundamentals, and external factors are various macroeconomic variables that influence stock returns. This paper uses descriptive and causality research designs to examine the impact of firm fundamentals on stock returns in Nepal for the fiscal year 2007/08-2021/22. In this paper, the dependent variable is stock return and firm fundamentals such as earnings per share (EPS), book-to-market equity (BME), size of market value of equity (lnME), cash flow yields (CFY), and earning yield (EY) are used as explanatory variables. The correlation result shows that EPS, BME, and EY have positive relationships, and lnME and CFY have negative relationships with stock returns. The regression results reveal the positive impact of EPS, BME, and EY on stock returns in Nepalese firms. This indicates that higher EPS, BME, and EY lead to increased firms’ stock returns. Further, the result reports that lnME and CFY have an inverse influence on returns. Finally, the finding concludes that earnings per share, book-to-market equity, size of market value equity, and cash flow yields are strong, but earnings yield has a weak impact on the stock returns of firms in Nepal. Policymakers, investors, and academicians can implement the findings of this study for effective formulation and application of policies, maximize stock returns, and research activities.

Abstract

Because the formation and development of human character are influenced by family, school, society, network, and peers, this paper studies the influence of these dimensions on youth character education to understand the current situation of youth character education and grasp the dimensions that youth character education should focus on. This paper examines the influence of the six dimensions of family, school, society, network, peer, and self on adolescent character education and the relationship between these six dimensions. This paper's quantitative research method finding: most respondents believed that family education significantly impacted teenagers' personalities, that teenagers attach the most importance to their personality, even more than schools and families, but the Internet attaches little importance to personality education and is most supportive of character education at school and home. This study will expand the dimension of youth quality education and has practical value for strengthening the joint education system.
