Many seem to believe that today's pre-service teachers as born after 1980 are digital natives, or that they are "native speakers" of the digital language. Nevertheless, there is no evidence that their digital native characteristics determine whether or not they would use technology in the classroom. Although not widely evaluated, the…

Background: Socioeconomic status (SES) and motivation are both important predictors of student achievement. However, most studies have investigated these factors separately, and very few have looked into the interplay between SES and motivation as determinants of student reading achievement. Aims: We intend to bridge this gap by examining a model…

This descriptive study determined the predictors of research performance of the graduate students in Occidental Mindoro State College, San Jose, Occidental Mindoro, Philippines. This research specifically looked into the graduate students' level of research performance, attitude towards research, challenges encountered, and the strategies employed…

The success of learning mathematics depends largely on students' satisfaction in learning the subject. This, along with other factors such as perceived usefulness in learning mathematics, will eventually increase students' intention to continue learning mathematics. This study integrated the Expectancy Confirmation Model (ECM) and perceived…
