Learning is an important factor in the world of education. Learning is basically not only learning about concepts, theories and facts, but is more concerned with applications in everyday life. This research was conducted because there are problems with the process skills of students at the elementary school level, especially at the Masrasah Ibtidaiyah school. This study aims to analyze the differences and the relationship between students' process skills towards mathematics lessons with speed and discharge material. This study uses quantitative methods with associative and comparative types. The sampling technique used in this study used simple random sampling. From the results obtained by the T test, there is a significant difference in student process skills between elementary school (elementary school) and MIS (Masrasah Ibtidaiyah) students in learning mathematics with speed and discharge material. From the results of the correlation test, it is known that there is a relationship between the variables of students' process skills in SD and Masrasah Ibtidaiyah in mathematics with speed and discharge. In this case, it is proven by a significant value in accordance with the existing provisions.

Abstract The aim of the research was to examine the attitudes of teachers, parents and students toward the impact of the parent-school cooperation on students' academic achievement. The research sample comprised 100 students, 39 teachers, and 65 parents. A survey method was used to gather data in this research. Within this method three scales were constructed: a scale for assessing parents’ attitudes, a scale for assessing teachers’ attitudes, and finally a scale for assessing students’ attitudes. The results indicate that, when it comes to the impact of the parent-school cooperation on students’ academic achievement, there are statistically significant differences in the attitudes between teachers, on the one hand, and parents and students, on the other hand. Parents usually come to school at the end of the first and second semester to get an insight into students’ achievement. Parents and teachers shift responsibility onto each other for the students’ failure, thus proving that the partnership between family and school is ineffective. However, parents' visits positively affect the child's achievement and his/her interest in various activities at school.

A quasi experiment with interview was adopted to study the aptness of using 3D animations as an instructional method to introduce programming concepts to students at the Senior High School level. This research work was conducted with 100 students of Akroso Senior High School in the Birim central municipality of the eastern region of Ghana who were generally programming novice. Programming concepts considered included programming environments, loops, functions sequential and conditional execution of programs. A paired t-test carried out on the results of the performance test presents a p-value of 0.008 indicative of a numerically significant difference between the mean marks of participants during the experiments that used 3D animation method as against the experiments that used the text base method. Results from the interview showed that the instructional method used had impact on the performance of the learners. The use of 3D animation method presented programming concepts in a form that the learners can understand, motivates them to pursue programming related courses at a higher level and also impacts positively on their performance.

Abstract Introduction: Educational achievement has remained the common yardstick for assessing human capital development across the world. However, it has been observed that Nigeria is one of the developing countries facing the challenge of low level of academic achievement by employees in the university system, which in turn has grave implications for the overall performance of the Nigerian university system in terms of efficient work delivery. Methods: This study adopts a robust and stratified sampling technique to select 4,122 employees in selected federal universities in the southeast of Nigeria and uses structural questionnaire and binary logistic regression to analyse the effect of employment status on academic achievement in South East Nigeria. Results: The findings show that employment status negatively and significantly influences the academic achievement of employees in Nigerian universities. Discussion: The major focus of this study is to examine the impact of employment status on educational achievement in the universities for southeast, Nigeria. To drive more effective and efficient service delivery in the universities, there is need for adequate salary enhancement for employees in order to motivate them to strive for higher educational attainments. Limitations: The study was carried out in federal universities in Nigeria. It is expected to expand the study to cut across both private, states in Nigeria for effective and efficient comparison among the universities found in southeast geopolitical zones. Conclusion: The study concludes that government should continuously motivate these employees so that they can strive for higher educational attainments.

This paper determines the impact of modelling technology integration for of out-of-school (OST) learning on academic achievement in primary schools. The research was conducted in Arusha Region, specifically in Meru District. The paper adopted the experimental design, involving experimental and control groups. Each of the two groups comprised three (3) schools, making a total of six (6) schools. The experiment was conducted using Digital Video Disks (DVDs), mobile phones, notebooks and home assignment booklets. The tools were further supplemented by a list of perceived best practices, and examination papers. The findings reveal a statistically significant difference in mean scores between the control and experimental groups as confirmed by 95% confidence level whereby, F (1, 180) = 28.63, p=0. Based on the findings, null hypothesis was rejected, leading to the conclusion that the proposed model for OST technology integration is attributed to significant improvements in academic achievement for primary school OST learners. The implication of these findings is for researchers, and other educational stakeholders, including the government to invest in devising contextually relevant model, and mobilizing parents, teachers and learners with a view to hastening technology integration in order to improve academic achievements for primary school pupils. There is also a need for studies that further explore technology integration opportunities, and associated challenges in a bid to addressing poor academic performance among primary school pupils.

The purpose of this study is to determine elementary school students’ level of self-regulation skills—goal setting and to develop strategies to achieve these goals. Survey method is used in the study with the participants of 368 students. The study was conducted at two elementary schools in Incesu and Kocasinan provinces of Kayseri and students filled a five-item Likert type scale. Data were analysed using statistical analysis program and 0.05 significance level was accepted. The result shows that the average grade of girls was higher than the boys, the average of 5th grades was higher than 6th grades and the average of the school in the city centre was higher than the school in the rural area. Also, there was a significant difference between the self-regulation scores of the grade levels in the favour of 5th grades. Lastly, the self-regulation score of the students living in city centre was higher than that of students living in village.   Keywords: Self-regulation, elementary education, survey research, elementary students
