academic success - Science topic

Dear fellow researchers,

I am looking for assistance from this network in order to complete my dissertation in psychology. I am sure you all understand how difficult it is to recruit participants, and how important it is to have a high number of participants.

The title of the study is “The Influence of Growth Mindset on the Relationship Between Leisure Physical Activity and Academic Happiness”.

This study aims to investigate whether a growth mindset mediates the relationship between leisure physical activity and academic happiness while examining gender differences and the influence of sport type (team vs. individual) among non-elite athlete university students.

This is a novel study where the outcome could help shape future curriculums to include targeted physical activity and mindset development courses to improve the academic happiness of students to reduce dropout rates.

This is the link to the study: https://wolverhamptonpsych.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0H8Ca7vLbMFg5JI

I have also attached a poster with a bit of information and a QR code that you are more than welcome to share.

I would greatly appreciate your assistance by sharing this study with university students.

Thank you so much in advance.

Can you provide us with the basic steps for designing successful academic research?

Hello dear professors

I intend to do a doctoral dissertation with the title "Identification and Validation of Inspirational Coordinates of Teachers Based on Global and Local Perspectives" and the following main goal.

I will use the qualitative interview method to collect information at the local level (Iran).

The interview questions are as follows, please; Are these questions appropriate or not? What is your suggestion for the quality of these questions?

The main goal: to identify and validate the inspirational coordinates of Iranian teachers based on global and local perspectives

Inspirational Teacher Coordinate Interview Questions

1-Is it possible,

In short, a memory about the teacher or teachers who inspired you during your years of education in the formal education system by providing detailed information about a subject; express

2- What characteristics did the teacher or teachers who encouraged you in your academic life and were memorable, unique and have a special and lasting place in your mind?

3- What were the characteristics of the effective and attractive teachers who laid the groundwork for your academic success and the development of life skills for you?

4- How did this teacher or teachers affect your life and how did they change your life?

Success stories of global young students who came to the developed countries as immigrants with their families to seek for a better life and achieve formal education. This student population included young learners, families, orphans, refugees from war-torn countries, etc. such as: Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, China, South & Central America, Brazil, Mexico, Iraq, Yemen, India, Afghanistan, Russia, Bosnia, Ukraine, Pakistan, Jordan, Palestine, and others.

What is the link between social role investment and academic success in college freshmen students?

write Where is the problem, what is the problem, what is the magnitude of problem and why it the problem?

and also write the objectives of this research and significance if his research.

How to write Problem statement

Just in case, here is a description of Researchgate's Research Spotlights feature

Inclusive Pedagogy

Promoting Equity

This topic has generated a lot discussion on the ethical implications of using language models like ChatGPT in academic settings. It drives us to consider potential biases, accuracy issues, and professionalism in academia while employing such technology. Furthermore, it encourages the investigation of alternate ways or complementary approaches that can improve academic success while resolving concerns about the incorporation of ChatGPT.

By considering the use of ChatGPT as a catalyst, and given the controversy surrounding their role, what are the potential benefits and drawbacks of introducing ChatGPT or similar language models into the academic product creation process? and does it assist the academic researcher in producing an efficient and engaging academic output, or does it cause the researcher to lose their ability to communicate ideas clearly and concisely and conveying arguments in a logical and convincing manner?

Please can someone advise me on the scoring for The Academic Success Inventory for College Students? How are the subscale scores converted into a scale score from 1-100?

I have contacted the author for the complete directions, as it states to do in a publication about the measure, but I have not had any response.

The directions also include a scoring template, a score sheet, and cutoffs for the 25th percentile score. These would be helpful too if possible?

I intend to pursue a Ph.D. and intend to apply Structural Equation Modelling on 'Factors influencing student success'. I have the following potential latent factors:

1. Academic Success Factors

2. Student Success,

3. Student Retention

There are many studies building on Vincent Tinto's 1995 model of student departure, and many factors have been suggested to retain students. I also intend to build on Tinto's model, however applying SEM.

I am wondering if the 'success factors' can be modelled especially through SEM as exogenous variable/s to influence 'student success' and or 'student retention'.

Would appreciate any advice, suggestions, or comments on this potential research (I have attached the proposed model).

My master’s thesis generally focused on the pre-enrolment factors influencing academic performance. I graduated but would like to understand further the possible inferential statistics I could have performed, whether relating to my research topic or not necessarily addressing my topic. Currently, I am exploring my questionnaire for possible statistical analysis. I recently realised how generous people are on RG in guiding those who need help, like in my case, and would like to tap into their expertise. I had slightly over 200 undergraduate students studying an entrepreneurship qualification and had missing values on some variables.

My questionnaire is structured in the following manner:

Section A (Demographics)

Section B (Profile of students before being accepted at a university)

The section had nine dichotomous items (Yes/No)

Section C (Issues experienced at high school level)

All the items relate to issues that influenced student performance during their high school studies

Section D (Entrepreneurial attributes)

This section had ten items (4-point Likert type questions)

e.g. (i) I am confident in my abilities to succeed; (ii) I find it difficult to adapt to change

Section E (Student support and development)

This section had nine items (4-point Likert type questions)

I am using SPSS and SPSS Amos to analyse my data. I would appreciate some guidance on the applicable inferential statistical analysis.

There are many factors that the literature has suggested as primary for student success, emotional, behavioral, cognitive ability, socioeconomics, previous grades, and many others, but more than half the literature report the vital link between engagement and persistence with academic success. Persistence, like engagement, is also a truism leading to academic success. Prolonged intellectual effort leads to the course and college completion. The students stamina to sustain themselves as learners is crucial for their academic success. Engaging students in educational activities is critical for the overall success of the student, and maintaining that persistence leads to finishing a college program. Success in academics is the direct result of those activities such as increased class attendance, assignment completion, interaction with instructors and peers is crucial, and persistence. This may be a truism that increased engagement leads to success, and persevering in studies leads to a degree, higher education still does not have a complete understanding of the reasons that students engage with their studies or strive. Understanding this mechanism of engagement and persistence is essential for improved future college pedagogy. But is it only the two constructs or a system of constructs?

Self-Authorship is a part of my research using social emotional learning to understand how the principles incorporated in the Upward Bound Program influenced the academic success and degree completion of underrepresented students in the (UB) Program as perceived through the lens of UB program alumni who are currently leading their own lives.

Hey everyone, I am looking for a comprehensive overview of all variables that the big five personality traits (OCEAN) have been correlated with. I know some isolated reviews for the big five and depression or academic success but I was wondering if there is one overview of all correlations reported in scientific publications?

Academic incubators of innovation and entrepreneurship are developed at universities to support innovation and entrepreneurship of students. Incubators are also a supplement to the educational program in the field of activating the innovation and entrepreneurship of students. Incubators sometimes also perform functions or cooperate with a career office for students. Career offices collect employment offers and organize internships for students through cooperation with companies and institutions that employ or give practice to students.

Sometimes academic incubators of innovation and entrepreneurship also cooperate with various institutions and companies in which students find employment or take apprenticeships. In addition, academic incubators of innovation and entrepreneurship, cooperating with various institutions and companies, enable the establishment of clusters of innovation, in which various economic entities, public institutions, scientific institutes and universities cooperate with each other. In this way, the possibilities of entrepreneurship development and generation of innovative solutions in assumed and developed research projects and startups are increasing.

Sometimes, also with the innovation cluster or business incubator, financial institutions cooperate, primarily banks offering financial support in the form of preferential loans for developing innovative startups. However, at the early stage of the establishment of business activity by students and organizations, the most important role is provided by substantive support in the field of advising on the formal and legal issues and accounting service of the university, lecturers and employees of the academic entrepreneurship incubator.

Do you agree with my opinion on this matter?

In view of the above, I am asking you the following question:

Please reply

I invite you to the discussion

Thank you very much

Best wishes

I'm looking for questionnaire under the topic of 'effect of e-learning on academic success on undergraduates'. Please suggest me some relevant questionnaire's or send me few samples.

please help me find the same relevant questionnaire on E-learning

The role of teachers cannot be taken for granted. Its major concern is the transfer of learning so that the students will become empowered as they face the day-to-day challenges in life.

Wishing all of you and your families a healthy, peacefull, prosperous as well as success- and fruitful, happy and safe new year 2021 to come. I am looking forward in continuing the participation in interesting and exciting scientific discussions and solving challenging questions in cooperation with you.

Best regards and good luck to all of you

Hello dear researchers

I have an opportunity to have a series of interview with great Iranian scientists from all over the world on my social media account.

I am listing the possible questions that I can ask!

If you were me, what were the questions that you wanted to ask!?

Please help me with your nice ideas!

Lets say you know very well the basics about writing, contents, formatting and style. Right before submission (your research is complete), do you focus only on the instructions for authors of the selected journal? Do you try to make the best/catchy title ever? Select a specific editor? do you contact the editor/journal before you submit? In short, Do you have a formula/method you apply? would you share it?

The Mercator Institute for Literacy and Language Education at the University of Cologne, Germany, is conducting a systematic review on the effectiveness of language integrated strategies (e.g. scaffolding, Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP)) in classrooms. In this review, it is intended to collate, critically appraise and synthesize existing research evidence according to pre-defined criteria.

To complement our electronic database search, we are looking for manuscripts/working papers/project reports/dissertations (except for BA-/MA-thesis) that have not (yet) been published or submitted for publication (and are not (yet) indexed in databases).

We are interested in (quasi-)experimental and observational studies using a control group design that (statistically) examine

If you have carried out this type of study or if first results of an ongoing study are available, we would like to kindly request the document. Submitted studies will be reviewed by the project team; studies that match the review inclusion criteria will be included in the final review synthesis (i.e. summarized and discussed). Publication of the results is planned for 2021.

Of course, your submissions will only be used within the scope of the review and will not be passed to third parties.

Please send documents by September 30th, 2019 to Leonie Twente at leonie.twente@mercator.uni-koeln.de. If you have any questions, please contact Till Woerfel at till.woerfel@mercator.uni-koeln.de. Alternatively you can use the comment field below.

Thank you for your support!

Kind regards,

Till Woerfel, Martha Höfler, Annika Witte, Anastasia Knaus, Rebekka Wanka and Leonie Twente

We always remember the most important research in our life since we find it was the critical step toward successful academic and scientific career. For me it was the first paper published in 1991 while I was a student in PhD program. Actually, it was published in a very important international journal as shown below. I do not know if you remember that important paper you published?

Zakaria Al-Hassan (Al-Qodah), Viara Ivanova, Elena Dobreva, Ivan Penchev ., Non-porous magnetic supports for cell immobilization, Journal of fermentation and bioengineering 71 (2), 114-117, 1991

For the selection of various high positions in academic administration, these two criteria are given maximum importance. Do you think that these two criteria along with some teaching experience will help a person to establish himself as a successful academic administrator?

Generally, academic career starts with great hopes and expectations. First decade receiving a doctorate degree, new lecture experiences provide a high level of motivation. But sometimes managers can force you to work with a lot of workload. Academic steps are difficult. The lucky ones gain experience abroad and develop their renewed self. Some become unable to handle the workload and their motivation falls. As soon as some of them have less academic work, they lose interest in academia. They find other efforts to give up academic progress. After 15 years, competence increases. The main motivations of the academician who have good relations with the students are their students. But after 15 years fatigue, some things lose meaning lowers motivation. Excessive effort in intensive work such as symposium, preparing the whole faculty lesson plan and accreditation can create discomfort. Often academics are optimistic. But the use of most of the efforts of their superiors can reduce motivation. At the end of 20 years, the motivation can still be maintained by being honored in a certain field. How do you think it is possible not to lose motivation for years due to these thoughts?

How can just being passionate about our profession help?

An academician is trained by getting knowledge and experience through years of studies. He then shares the knowledge and experiences with students and colleagues. Also carries out projects by putting the knowledge and experiences into practice. So how do you evaluate the administrative duties of academicians who have trained in such a long time and effort? Should administrative duties have a limit? Would you please share your opinion about this problem?

The new academic year is starting,..

What does "Back to School" mean to you?

Everybody Knows about how fears and phobias affect us in the workplace, and what we can do about it. What is yours?

As a recently published doctoral student, I have found it difficult to share my work with others as I am (obviously) unknown (yet, hopefully). I have used the standard social media route of sharing the links to your articles but I feel that there must be other creative ways to doing this.

One other method that I thought is useful is by using Kudos (https://link.growkudos.com/1jsw7cnzoxs) which is a fantastic way of accelerating your research impact by communicating your work using much simpler terms.

Do you have other strategies? I would love to hear about them.

We can no longer pick just "the most important thing"; RATHER making any field of human activity, in which you ARE personally much involved, empirically better will help not only that field but tend to help the modus operandi in several/many other fields. Any major change will be inspirational -- and some of this will be useful and in appropriate ways more generally useful. (This may seem self-serving (on my part), but I really believe "you do what you can, where you can" is part of an individual being her/his best and THAT MATTERS more generally. Otherwise you just have some small positive effect on the "most important" matters. Obviously, you do what you can there; but, given your actual expertise, this effect will be limited. )

Academician and newly graduate PhD holders are more concern about the mentioned issue. Although the answers differ based on experience and position. But majority wants both. Is it possible to have both together?

Thanks

what is the impact of home or classroom learning environments on a child's academic success. If any knows any studies/ research on this topic can you please share?

Children's academic success

what is the impact of home or classroom learning environments on a child's academic success. If any knows any studies/ research on this topic can you please share?

The pedagogical uses of digital technology are increasingly being integrated into school and university establishment projects. They make it possible to offer each student learning methods adapted to his or her needs, thus promoting academic success and developing autonomy.

Society is changing. The young people have changed. The role of the teacher and those who accompany them is also changing. But are we equipped to do it ?

What factors influence the degree of telling the truth in academic research?

I have humanities in mind, particularly politics related topics.

How much where a researcher comes from influences his/her inclination to reveal the truth? What triggered this question is a declaration by a European teacher that researchers from the Middle East don't tell the truth in their writings!

What was your best achievement in 2018?

Do people still use Jane (http://jane.biosemantics.org/)

Most formal student admission systems of Higher Education Institutions, tend to primarily assess academic achievement in specific domains and cognitive abilities. Some Institutions are recently and more and more make use for example of a psychometric entrance Test (PET) administered and weighed for university, college and medical school admissions. These kind of tests are used as above other admission tools, because they are less affected by differences in applicants’ backgrounds or other subjective factors.

In general, students who also receive high scores are more successful in their academic studies than students who receive low scores.

Can anyone please tell me or let me know of specific tests or instruments that they or their Institutions use or know of when evaluating students for admission requirements? How successful is these tests or instruments wrt the increase of pass rates and throughput ratios as well as to lower drop-out and failure rates?

In international higher education jargon, what is expected from an academic leader/manager for the sustainability and success for an academic institution?

Many teachers think that students' test scores are critical in students' lives and teachers' careers. So, the teachers are busy with improving students' test performance than enhancing critical thinking capability. Can we enhance students' critical thinking capability and improve test scores using critical pedagogy in the classroom using the existing curriculum?
