This paper publishes the results of a study of Hong Kong Chinese upper secondary students (Form 4 and Form 6) regarding their motivation orientations for learning English. The study analysed male and females student groups using Gardner and Lambert's (1972) 'extrinsic and intrinsic motivation' theoretical framework in order to elicit the most revealing results from the data. Findings will have meaningful implications for pedagogy, helping educators identify strategies more appropriate to distinct Chinese-speaking second-language student groups.

The sample of this study was students of class X Accounting SMK Hidayah Semarang with total of 41 students. A self-administered questionnaires and multiple regression analysis were used to test the research question. In addition, the results showed that there is a positive and significant effect both simultaneously and partially from the use of e-learning, peer group and learning motivation towards learning outcomes in class X Accounting at SMK Hidayah Semarang. The improvement and intensity in using e-learning strategies, teacher's attention to the students’ peer environment specifically on cooperation and competition among students, and students' intelligence in interacting and establishing fair cooperation in the academic context with their peers are very important factors towards learning outcomes</span></p><p><strong><em> <span class="fontstyle0">Keywords: learning outcomes; e-learning; peer group; motivation</span> </em></strong></p><p><strong><em></em><br /></strong></p>

Shuttle Run

The purpose of the present study was to determine the validity of the 20-meter multistage shuttle run (MSR) for predicting peak VO2 in Hong Kong Chinese students, ages 12–17 years. Fifty-five subjects, 27 boys and 28 girls, performed the MSR in the school environment and had peak VO2 determined in the laboratory. A correlation of 0.72 (p<0.001) was found between peak VO2 and predicted peak VO2 using an equation previously developed with Canadian children (6). However, maximal shuttle run speed alone was a better predictor in this group (r=0.74, SEE=4.6 ml · kg−1·min−1, p<.001). Multiple-regression analysis (best-subsets) was performed and the best predictor variables were maximal speed and sex with either triceps skinfold or weight. For practical application in the school setting, the equation peak VO2 = 24.2 − 5.0(sex) − 0.8(age) + 3.4(maximal speed) (r=0.82, SEE=4.0), where for sex, male = 0 and female = 1, is suggested.

L2 Spanish

Since the beginning of the 21st century, international education has grown at an extraordinary rate, and even countries like Uruguay, which has not been a recipient country of a significant flow of international students, has experienced an important increase of students from other countries and cultures. L2 Spanish learners from several Chinese universities travel to a Spanish-speaking country in the third year of their major to attend Spanish and culture lessons during two academic semesters. The aim of increasing the knowledge of Chinese approaches to learning is part of the interest of researchers and teachers in expanding their understanding of individual differences in learning. This chapter summarizes the research carried out at Universidad ORT Uruguay that focuses on identifying and understanding L2 (Spanish) strategies to learning.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a mobile User-Generated-Content (m-UGC) tool on enhancing primary students’ vocabulary learning motivation and learning outcomes. A total of 40 primary students in Hong Kong participated in this study. The results showed using the m-UGC tool could increase primary students’ learning motivation and significantly improve their vocabulary learning.

The purpose of this study was to determine and describe: (1) the effect of the application of learning strategies on the learning outcomes of Islamic Fikih, (2) the influence of learning motivation on the learning outcomes of Islamic Fikih, and (3) the interaction between strategies learning and learning motivation towards the learning outcomes of Islamic Fikih. The method used in this study is a quasi-experimental method. The study population was all students of class VI MIN 2 Labuhanbatu consisting of 3 classes. The sampling technique used was cluster random sampling, in which one group of classes was conducted using collaborative learning and the other class was conducted competitive learning. Data collection techniques used are lift and learning outcomes tests. The data analysis technique used is two-way analysis of variance.  The research findings show: (1) there is an influence of learning strategies on fiqh learning outcomes. In this case the average learning outcomes of Islamic Fikih taught with collaborative learning strategies are higher than the average learning outcomes of Islamic Fikih taught with competitive learning strategies, (2) there is an influence of learning motivation on learning outcomes of Fikih. In this case, the average learning outcomes of Islamic Fikih with higher learning motivation is higher than the average learning outcomes of Fikih with low learning motivation, and (3) there is an interaction effect between learning strategies with learning motivation, where students with high learning motivation are more precisely taught using collaborative learning strategies, while students with low learning motivation are more precisely taught with competitive learning strategies.
