{"title":"The Influence of Teacher-Student Relationships on Student Motivation and Achievement: Perspective from Japan","authors":"Haruki K. Yoshimoto","doi":"10.53819/81018102t4157","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.53819/81018102t4157","url":null,"abstract":"This study conducted a comprehensive literature-based exploration into the critical role of teacher-student relationships in student motivation and achievement within the Japanese educational context. The foundation of this research pivots around the understanding that these relationships may significantly affect the educational outcomes for students. Drawing upon multiple scholarly sources and empirical studies, the research investigates how the unique cultural and educational environment in Japan impacts these relationships. We found that the Japanese educational system, characterized by a strong teacher authority and a culture that values harmony, shapes unique teacher-student dynamics. The study further analyzed how these dynamics contribute to students' intrinsic motivation and academic performance. Findings suggest that positive teacher-student relationships in Japan, often marked by respect, emotional support, and constructive feedback, are likely to foster a nurturing and motivational learning environment. This supportive atmosphere subsequently promotes student engagement, facilitates cognitive development, and enhances academic achievement. Conversely, less optimal teacher-student relationships may lead to lower motivation levels, hindering students' potential to succeed academically. This study not only highlights the importance of cultivating positive teacher-student relationships in the Japanese context but also underscores the universal applicability of this principle in achieving optimal educational outcomes worldwide. This research contributes to the broader discourse on educational pedagogy, providing valuable insights for policymakers, educators, and researchers. However, it is noteworthy that further empirical investigations are necessary to deepen our understanding of this topic, considering the diverse social, cultural, and individual factors at play. As such, the study concludes with recommendations for future research directions, emphasizing the need for a holistic and inclusive approach to education.

Tan","doi":"10.53819/81018102t4158","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.53819/81018102t4158","url":null,"abstract":"This research retrospectively explored the impact of multilingual education on students' cognitive development, with a focus on China's educational system. It illustrated how immersion in multiple languages enhanced cognitive abilities, supported by empirical data collected from schools across various Chinese regions. Distinct improvements were seen in cognitive domains such as problem-solving, attention, memory, and cognitive flexibility. The research underlined a correlation between multilingual education and an enriched cognitive repertoire, showcasing the ability to think divergently and handle complex tasks efficiently. The study also addressed the challenges involved in implementing multilingual education, including the need for specialized resources and trained educators. Despite these hurdles, the findings from China echoed the global consensus supporting multilingualism as a potent tool in fostering cognitive development. This analysis has broad implications for shaping educational policies worldwide, advocating for more significant incorporation of multilingual education to optimize cognitive growth among students.

We queried three sources of information: teacher educators, methods course syllabi, and national/state accreditation standards for teacher preparation. Findings revealed several key themes, including challenges inherent in guiding preservice teachers as they navigate homework policies. In addition, even though teacher educators believed it important to prepare preservice teachers for the inherent complexity of homework practices, they provided minimal guidance on how they might address such concerns. Syllabus and standards reviews showed that neither addressed homework-related issues.

This article investigates the origins of the 60-year-old recommendation, examining how and why it has persisted. Drawing on historical documents, it reconstructs how the 250 number was derived during the 1950s and then uses a framework of institutionalization within organizational fields to explain how the ratio became cemented within and beyond the counseling field. By highlighting how the 250-to-1 recommendation is an anachronism, this article raises questions about its continued relevance.","PeriodicalId":15568,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78108106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
