The current study was heading for determining the impact of Pakistani university students’ socioeconomic classes on their personality traits. Demographic and personality questionnaires were filled by available university students online. The stepwise regression technique facilitated to generate regression models to define impacts of different socioeconomic classes on students’ different personality traits. Different regression models highlighted the significant negative impacts of the middle upper socioeconomic class on Agreeableness, Extraversion and Neuroticism personality traits. The lower socioeconomic class was found to have positive impact on only one personality sub-trait self-discipline. Whereas, the upper lower socioeconomic class caused positive impacts on students’ trust sub-trait, Conscientiousness trait and negative impact on excitement seeking sub-trait of personality. The importance of these impacts of socioeconomic classes on different personality traits and the possible implications are discussed with respect to university students’ academic performance and academic behaviour.

Noise in the classroom has been found to have a negative impact on students. However, what can be done to lessen the impact of noise on student performance? How do students perceive noise in the classroom? How do students feel noise impacts on their ability to pay attention and learn in a classroom environment? My previous action project suggested that noise has a negative impact on student performance (Lapp, 2018). This action project was geared to determine whether cost effective baffolds found in Cawthra Park Secondary School’s library could lessen the noise levels. It was also geared to understand how students perceived noise and its effects in a classroom environment. The results suggested that the use of baffolds had a positive impact on lessening noise. It was also noteworthy that students tended to underestimate the noise levels in their classrooms. However, those that perceived the noise as being louder were more aware of its negative impacts than those who perceived the noise as being quieter.
