By analyzing 131 valid questionnaires obtained from current master’s degree students at Stamford International University in Thailand, the results revealed that most of the students were undergraduates from non-first-class institutions, worked in universities, and majored in arts. The factors for Chinese students to choose Thailand, from the highest scores to the lowest, were time factors, international relationships, learning pressure, and cultural inducement. Moreover, young teachers put much weight on learning pressure and cultural inducements. This study accordingly made two suggestions: 1. increasing the ways of further education for young teachers majored in arts; and 2. China may consider offering winter and summer master’s degree programs for in-service teachers.","PeriodicalId":186719,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Student and Education","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124085553","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}

The instructional intervention via Universal Design for Learning (UDL) was applied to 33% (97 out of 297) of these freshmen as the Treatment Group while 67% (200) belonged to the Control Group for traditional instructions. Statistical inferences utilized one-way Analysis of Variance for mean differences; Pearson R Correlations for bivariate relationships, and; Factor Analysis for significant components that contributed most to the Universal Design for Learning instructions. Findings showed very high levels of students’ acquired UDL skills. Results in the pre-test in General Psychology, respectively, were low and average when grouped into low and high achievers. There was no significant mean difference in the acquired nine UDL components when categorized into seven colleges to generalize that they were on the same very high levels between colleges. Significant differences were found in three test areas in General Psychology in eight colleges whose students in the College of teacher education taking the lead in the learning performance. Significant differences were also traced in the post test in favor of the students in the treatment group. This proved that UDL really impacted the learning performance of the low-achieving students. Significant correlations were revealed between the components of UDL and General Psychology. There were twenty-four significant itemized components that contributed most to UDL instructional interventions. Implications were emphasized to maximize the principles of UDL with the contention of thoughtful planning related to the four curricular pillars of UDL: (a) instructional goals, (b) instructional delivery methods, (c) instructional materials, and (d) student assessments.","PeriodicalId":186719,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Student and Education","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129842972","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}

The teacher observed that students’ performance is greatly affected by their poor mastery of the pre-requisite skills. The research involves thirty student respondents who were purposively selected based on their scores on the pre-test given to them at the beginning of the semester. Students were ranked based on the score they got in the pre-test. The bottom thirty were then selected as respondents of the study. The respondents were given Tarsia-aided remedial classes as an intervention. Tarsia is a software that allows teachers to create a variety of puzzles like jigsaw and dominoes. Sixty-minute remedial classes of two to three sessions per week started on the month of September 2021. A blended learning modality was adopted. The researcher gathered data using the pre-test and post-test results of the respondent. It was found out that the average of score of the thirty respondents in the 50-item pre-test is 8.13. The average of scores of the students increased by 11.2 points during the post-test that was given after the intervention. Using a t-test for paired samples, it was found out that there is a significant difference between students’ pre-test and post-test scores. Thus, the Tarsia-aided remedial classes improved students’ mastery of the pre-requisite skills.","PeriodicalId":186719,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Student and Education","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128158498","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}

Children with autism have very different play behavior. The current study examines the use of a one-part directive during trial-based instructions on developing play skills in young children with autism. Single-subject research is an in-depth quantitative study of the response of an individual or a group of individuals to intervention. Participants were five children diagnosed with autism ages three to five years old. The task was introduced in a single case design across all sessions in both generalization settings. The participants seemed to have no apparent intervention effects, and one showed a decrease in play following the intervention. The possible reasons for the variability across participants and suggestions for improving methods in developing play skills are discussed. Acquisition and generalization of play skills may be affected by which play skills are taught and how plays skills are taught. Carefully selecting play activities may develop spontaneous play among children with autism and their peers.","PeriodicalId":186719,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Student and Education","volume":"223 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116018822","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}

Over a period of four weeks, the researcher conducted the study among randomly selected BSED students to answer the survey questionnaire according to their preferences. Cooperative Learning (IV) and Academic Productivity (DV) utilize validated survey questionnaires to gather data. The results showed students who were engaged in cooperative learning had a better academic progress as compared to the students who were taught by lecture.

The data was gathered through a survey questionnaire and analyzed using the descriptive correlational method. Results showed that the respondents strongly agreed to attend review sessions, go with people who motivate them, and push through despite difficulties. They also had positive attitudes toward learning, note-taking, and self-evaluation. Moreover, a significant relationship between confidence and commitment was found. These findings suggest that educators can enhance student preparedness and commitment to taking the LET by providing review sessions and support from peers and significant others. Additionally, promoting a growth mindset that views failures as opportunities for growth and learning may improve student confidence in taking licensure exams.","PeriodicalId":186719,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Student and Education","volume":"333 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116125242","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}
