Book excerpt: The flexibility and convenience of online distance learning is attractive to adult learners who are not able to attend traditional on-campus study due to work, family or other responsibilities. The rapid, and sustained, growth in online distance education has given it increasing importance to both the academic and financial status of higher education institutions; however, this importance has been overshadowed by low retention and completion rates. Given the importance of online distance education to higher education institutions, the need to understand the factors which influence student withdrawal has become vital for higher education. In New Zealand, where the viability and potential existence of higher education institutions is dependent upon meeting Government-set retention and completion outcomes, failure to gain this understanding and identify actions to improve student retention and completion may lead to loss of funding and academic accreditations. Therefore the need to adequately define, understand, and identify appropriate actions that an institution can implement to increase student persistence in online education is now urgent. This research investigates the influence of situational, dispositional, institutional, technological, and epistemological factors on student withdrawal from foundation level online programs of study in higher education. It reflects and extends from the work of Cross (1981), Garland (1993), Roberts (2004), and Carroll (2008). As an exploration of the influences of different factors upon students' decision to withdraw from online study, this research used a descriptive cross-sectional design, with a survey to collect data, in order to identify the extent to which each factor has had an influence on students' decision to withdraw from their online study. No significant demographic (age, gender, ethnicity) differences were found between the overall online, foundation study student population and the sample student population. Only 3 statements, made up of 1 institutional factor statement, 1 situational factor statement and 1 dispositional factor statement, were identified by 50% or more of the respondents as having an influence on their withdrawal from study. The results from this research highlighted the importance of student connectivity within the course of study and the influential relationship that situational and dispositional factors can jointly play in a student's decision to withdraw from online, foundation level study.

This book was released on 2012-02-23 with total page 839 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than two decades, the concept of student engagement has grown from simple attention in class to a construct comprised of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral components that embody and further develop motivation for learning. Similarly, the goals of student engagement have evolved from dropout prevention to improved outcomes for lifelong learning. This robust expansion has led to numerous lines of research across disciplines and are brought together clearly and comprehensively in the Handbook of Research on Student Engagement. The Handbook guides readers through the field’s rich history, sorts out its component constructs, and identifies knowledge gaps to be filled by future research. Grounding data in real-world learning situations, contributors analyze indicators and facilitators of student engagement, link engagement to motivation, and gauge the impact of family, peers, and teachers on engagement in elementary and secondary grades. Findings on the effectiveness of classroom interventions are discussed in detail. And because assessing engagement is still a relatively new endeavor, chapters on measurement methods and issues round out this important resource. Topical areas addressed in the Handbook include: Engagement across developmental stages. Self-efficacy in the engaged learner. Parental and social influences on engagement and achievement motivation. The engaging nature of teaching for competency development. The relationship between engagement and high-risk behavior in adolescents. Comparing methods for measuring student engagement. An essential guide to the expanding knowledge base, the Handbook of Research on Student Engagement serves as a valuable resource for researchers, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students in such varied fields as clinical child and school psychology, educational psychology, public health, teaching and teacher education, social work, and educational policy.

Download or read book Excessive Internet Use and its Impact on Mental Health written by Aleksandar Višnjić and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-09-18 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The various forms of internet use, including social networking, online shopping, gambling, and gaming are a product of the time in which we live and represent an integral part of how we conduct and engage in social interaction. Internet platforms are used daily providing people with the ability to connect, and efficiently exchange important information, as well as provide educational functions and raise awareness/support of problems faced by individuals and societies globally. However, excessive use of internet-related content has shown a significant association with addictive behavior which could have serious repercussions on an individual’s mental health. Where it is generally accepted that a combination of biological, psychological, and social factors contributes to the pathophysiology of addiction, the ongoing debate remains as to whether certain excessive behaviors should be classified as addictions, including social networking addiction. Although any internet-related addiction is not specifically identified in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) or International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11), it shares a common underlying etiological framework with other (substance or behavioral) addictions.
