Download or read book Family Process Factors Self regulated Learning and English Academic Achievement in Selected Malaysian Secondary Schools written by Hadj Mahammed Bakir and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays students need to be self-regulated learners because of the complex nature of learning in the 21st classroom. However, neither students nor teachers can promote academic performance alone. Families, also, need to contribute in teaching and learning by providing positive family process factors (FPF). This study aims at examining the relationship between three main factors; Family Process Factors (FPF), Self-Regulated Learning (SRL), and English language achievement in three selected Malaysian secondary schools from the district of Gombak, Kuala Lumpur. The study sample includes 202 students who have been purposefully selected to respond to two surveys: Family Process Factors Questionnaire and Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire, as well as report their recent marks in English as a Second Language (ESL) classroom. The path analysis technique, using AMOS data-fitting program and Sobel test of mediation, supported the hypothesized model by showing statistically significant path coefficients and fit indices. Primarily, it was found that FPF positively influences SRL. Secondly, SRL positively affects Achievement and, finally, SRL plays the role of mediator between FPF and Achievement. Thus, further interest in fostering SRL strategies among secondary school students should be paid by Malaysian parents in particular and educationists in general.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The rise in global competition demands an increase in education quality. Education institutions are thus required to think more about how they can improve their student performances. One factor that has been found to play a vital role in increasing performance is psychological factors. While previous literature has extensively discussed this issue in Western contexts and some countries in Asia (e.g., Singapore and China), few extant works of literature attempt to understand it in Indonesian contexts. This book will attempt to fill the gap by discussing empirical evidence of the role of parent and peer supports, academic self-efficacy, performance goal orientation, college adjustment, cognitive process, self-control, psychological distress, differential feedback, and involvement in college organizations. Student performances are discussed in the various levels of educations, from primary schools to higher education"--

Book excerpt: This book examines socioeconomic inequality and student outcomes across various Western industrialized nations and the varying success they have had in addressing achievement gaps in lower socioeconomic status student populations. It presents the national profiles of countries with notable achievement gaps within the respective school-aged student populations, explains the trajectory of achievement results in relation to both national and international large-scale assessment measures, and discusses how relevant education policies have evolved within their national contexts.
