Therefore, this paper focuses on examining the general overview of English language teachers’ belief about state-level assessments, and their reflection on teaching practices. Participants of this study were 307 teachers of primary and secondary school teachers, and 36 of them were English language teachers of Dornod province in Mongolia. Independent sample t-test was used to explore how English teachers change their instructions in teaching English compared to other subjects teachers. Result showed that they usually search for more effective teaching methods, take less liberty on how they design their lessons, reduce instructional content, and focus more on Educational standards. As a result of a correlation analysis, English language teachers’ assessment view is significantly related to the content of the assessment that is designed by teachers in a class. Based on the results, it can be concluded that teachers focus more on the assessment content that they design for progress and final exams. They prefer to prepare students for this assessment by making them practice the test items that are similar to the school achievement test items during classes. Understanding the reasons for ineffective instructions can help policy makers and teachers to change the assessment content and its accountability, and would also help to improve their classroom instructions to have better learning outcome.","PeriodicalId":245027,"journal":{"name":"The European Journal of Educational Sciences","volume":"163 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133964581","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}

Learning and using English has become a necessary need of many people, particularly the young generation. Motivation is considered as one of the fundamental factors in successfully learning a language. This paper focuses on investigating the type and level of motivation in English language learning. The instrument of the study was adopted from Gardner’s Attitude/Motivation Test Battery (AMTB). The participants in this study includes 371 first and second-year students of Vietnam National University, Hanoi – University of Engineering and Technology (VNU-UET). The collected data were summarized and analyzed by using SPSS software. The findings show that the students that participated in the study were highly motivated in English learning, and more instrumentally motivated. The study also examined some factors that influence motivation such as students’ gender, the school year, the time students have spent in learning English, and parental ability in speaking English. The study shows that the school year and parental English ability had a significant influence on students' motivation in English language learning. The problems that the students face during the learning process was also discussed. Some recommendations were given to improve the students' motivation in English learning.","PeriodicalId":245027,"journal":{"name":"The European Journal of Educational Sciences","volume":"158 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133432144","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}

In spite of numerous studies that have explored academic performance in Nigeria, the contributions of parental prominence and student housing quality on academic success are yet to be explored in the nation’s public universities. This study addresses this gap by raising this question: to what extent does parental prominence and student housing predict the attainment of academic success among university undergraduates? The cross-sectional survey design, with multi-stage and purposive sampling technique was adopted. Primary information was sourced from 426 final year students of OAU, OOU and AAUA. The outcome variable of this study was academic success; and it was measured by student’s attainment of outstanding or weak academic success. The key explanatory variables were parental prominence and student housing quality. Multivariate rank ordered-logistic regression and ANOVA was applied using Stata 14. Results showed that academic success was negatively associated with student housing quality. Also, results showed that parental prominence (marital status, employment status, gender preference, occupation type) were statistically associated with academic success. Results further European Journal of Educational Sciences, EJES March 2019 edition Vol.6 No.1 ISSN 18576036 96 showed that student housing quality and financial supports contributed about 9% to academic success. The study concluded that the challenges posed by inadequate and poor student housing facilities, lack of adequate financial supports for university students, parental gender preference in meeting-up with education needs of their children must be addressed in order to stimulate the attainment of outstanding academic success among students of public universities in Southwest, Nigeria.","PeriodicalId":245027,"journal":{"name":"The European Journal of Educational Sciences","volume":"27 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120854095","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}
