Assessment of students' time management habits through Haddon's test and results; 2. A method of developing time budget management habits by evaluating the actual day and week and determining the desired time budget for the week.\u0000Teaching students of time management skills are important, especially in countries where the school and university infrastructure does not provide an opportunity to be aware and totally introduce a healthy lifestyle among young people. Making students aware of the importance of a variety of activities in their time and showing them opportunities in this direction will teach them the skills necessary to balance life. Teaching time management helps the student to write down/plan his goals in time and take concrete steps towards success.","PeriodicalId":33478,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language Teaching and Education","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81095995","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 particular, it focuses on small-scale construction projects in the education sector and the problems associated with them, including policy making, pricing, efficiency, and the length of the procurement process. The paper also examines the risks associated with public procurement in the construction industry and how these risks can be managed through risk management. Moreover, it analyses the specific problems in the education sector, including imbalanced contractual conditions and unfair arrangements, which often shift the responsibility for risk aftermath to contractors. To gain insight into these issues, a research questionnaire was conducted among construction companies participating in the public procurement process. Based on the questionnaire results and a comparison between public and private procurement processes in the Czech Republic and Germany, the paper identifies flaws in the system and proposes potential solutions. The paper concludes by emphasizing the need for small changes to be implemented to improve the system, even though corruption remains a major issue that needs to be addressed. Overall, this paper provides valuable insights for policymakers and stakeholders on how to address the issues surrounding public procurement in the education sector in the Czech Republic and beyond.","PeriodicalId":33478,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language Teaching and Education","volume":"142 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80146763","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 methodology centres on a mixed methods approach with the analysis of two parts each with two steps. Part 1 was an external evaluation consisting of (1) interviews and (2) visits to five other comparable universities with established programmes. Part 2 was an internal evaluation consisting of (1) a survey of students’ perceptions of learning English and (2) the feedback from two facilitators who lead a trial out-of-class English programme over a one-year period. Results from the external evaluation indicate that without the support of the institution, faculty-led initiatives will result in small programmes with limited facilities while institution-led initiatives have the potential to create a larger impact within the institution. The internal evaluation revealed a number of hindrances to implementing an out-of-class programme including perceptions of the students’ foreign language learning and how they like to pass their time out of class. Points for the university to consider are recommended. While this investigation focuses on one university at a set time, others in similar situations may find the results of interest to themselves.","PeriodicalId":33478,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language Teaching and Education","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78572704","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}

There is a considerable heterogeneity among the different subjects and the need for good mathematical skills varies from subject to subject. To analyse this, we apply the Attitudes Towards Mathematics Inventory (ATMI) framework. The data are collected by asking students at a business school in Norway. The results are linked to the exam grades in the various subjects. The sample consists of approximately 150 students. As a research method, the standard linear regression model is used. The results show that there is a strong positive correlation between ATMI and success in the various subjects. This applies specifically to the dimension of self-confidence in mathematics. However, there is a considerable variation between the subjects, and in some non-quantitative subjects such as marketing, no correlation was found in this study between ATMI and exam grades. As control variables in the model, gender and Grade Point Average (GPA) from the upper secondary school were included. These variables had a rather small influence on the results for the subjects, but with significant statistical effects on some subjects. This article provides insight into a key factor that can help explain how students are performing in the various business subjects","PeriodicalId":33478,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language Teaching and Education","volume":"57 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90867396","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}

Acids-bases chemistry has been identified by chemistry scholars worldwide as one of the threshold concepts (TCs) in chemistry that seems to be difficult and the culprit of most failures in chemistry. Acids-bases reactions are also central to learning of other chemical reactions within the discipline of chemistry and other science concepts in life sciences (biology) and physics. The paper is based on the challenges students experience in general chemistry, which tend to discourage students from studying chemistry or pursuing their studies in chemistry-oriented professions, such as medicine, engineering, agriculture, natural resources, and chemistry education; or responsible for students dropping out of the university education completely. To address this problem, we explored lecturers’ and students’ challenges that students experience in learning TCs of acids-bases chemistry and the students’ perspectives of chemistry. A qualitative research methodology was employed in the study. Data was collected through classroom observations and student focus-group conversations. A thematic approach was employed to analyse data. Five chemistry educators and their classes were purposely sampled. Vygotsky’s social cognitive development theory was used as a theoretical framework to understand the teaching-learning of acids-bases chemistry. Findings suggested that some students’ experiences transformed them into self-directed learners. Researchers can investigate other avenues to the portal in teaching-learning TCs.","PeriodicalId":33478,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language Teaching and Education","volume":"41 5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83691998","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}
