This longitudinal study assessed the relative importance of second language exposure, motivational and attitudinal factors, and executive functions in predicting receptive vocabulary acquisition in children and adolescents after controlling for background characteristics (socio-economic status, non-verbal intelligence) and prior knowledge. The…

This study investigated the trends and correlations between ocean literacy (OL), marine science learning interest (MSLI), and marine science learning motivation (MSLM) in Taiwanese high school students in a three-wave longitudinal survey, with an OL scale used to assess students' MSLI and MSLM. A total of 428 valid responses were collected. The…

This study assessed the motivation, learning strategies, and academic performance of Grade 11 modular-based students in General Mathematics in identified secondary schools as a basis for a proposed performance enhancement plan. There were 624 Grade 11 students across three public senior high schools in Cebu who were determined using stratified…

The purpose of this study was to observe how within-person variation in motivation, self-efficacy and academic performance scores are correlated or can be predicted. The reciprocal association between these variables was analysed through a four-wave longitudinal study and a within-person analytical approach (random intercept cross-lagged panel…

This research objective was to determine the effects of Learning Strategies on Motivation and Learning Outcomes of Overhead "Passing" in Volleyball. The research sample consisted of 40 eleventh-grade senior high school students using a "treatment by level 2x2" research design with the Tukey's test at Q[subscript h] level =…

This qualitative research aimed to explore high school students' opinions on the effectiveness of using the mind map method asa note-taking, thinking, and learning tool. The study involved 80 students from 9th, 11th, and 12th grades who were introducedto the mind map method and asked to apply it in their lessons. The results showed that the…

This study investigated the effect of applying "participant modeling" followed by a role play on grade eleven scientific students' achievement and motivation in biology. Students usually face problems in understanding difficult biology concepts like Krebs cycle which is composed of a series of biochemical reactions with many molecules…

The following survey study uses a quantitative research design to investigate motivational and affective aspects of students (aged 14-17) in a mathematical workshop on graph theory. Motivational and affective aspects are related to heart rate measurement (using the digital medium of a pulse watch) in mathematical knowledge development processes in…

The role of motivation in chemistry learning has long been explored and has become an exciting research topic worldwide. The aim of this study was to explore whether gender, class and students' anxiety influenced the motivation to learn chemistry among upper-secondary school students in Indonesia. The Chemistry Motivation Questionnaire II and the…

Despite the complex nature of writing, many students are hesitant to tackle difficult subjects. To help those facing writing difficulties and increase their motivation, this study examines the effect of teacher-student collaboration through guided-writing instruction. A two-group quasi-experimental design was used with a pre-treatment-post-tests…

To present the significant findings of the paper of Alova (2019), this study shows that Value of Mathematics, which is one of the factors of the attitudes toward Mathematics as taken from the Attitudes Toward Mathematics Inventory (ATMI), an instrument developed by Tapia and Marsh (2004), is one salient factor in the students' attitude and…

While examining the findings, this study concentrated on academic success, critical thinking, and motivation for demonstration. Secondary school students studying English are involved in digital story-telling research. A quasi-experimental approach was employed in the research with 48 11th grade students who took pretests and posttests. Teaching…

Ever since males and females have enrolled in school, differences in their academic performance have been observed. It is generally believed that these differences stem from differences in motivation between the sexes, caused by differences in the developmental patterns of males and females. When viewing education as a whole, there is no denying…

Astronomy is seen as a "gateway" science, inspiring students to pursue Science-Technology-Engineering-Mathematics (STEM) related careers. However, there is little evidence that students' attitudes towards astronomy remain stable over time. By integrating Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB), we identified…

Allowing students to practice science inquiry in the classroom is fundamental for science education. Students should master investigation skills, promoting their understanding of science concepts. Virtual laboratories have emerged as a powerful interactive tool that can be a suitable alternative to real laboratories, especially when lacking enough…
