Classroom climate is a comprehensive set of educational, psychological, social, cognitive, organizational, and physical variables that may affect the academic achievement of learners. Perceptions of students in their learning environment affect the way they perform in the classroom. However, classroom climate is a less explored construct creating much dearth on the local literature. Hence, the paper aimed to determine the degree of classroom climate in terms of discipline, learning, assessment, student interactions, attitude, and culture. Moreover, it also assessed if a significant difference exists when assessors are grouped according to the designation. Likewise, it determines the correlation between classroom climate and academic performance of junior high school students in a public school in Antique.

ABSTRACT The study aimed to determine the effect of learning motivation and reward to the achievement in Science among junior high school students of Botolan District, Division of Zambales during SY 2018-2019.    The study revealed that the respondent is a typical female. The respondents “strongly agree” on extrinsic, intrinsic and task value while “agree” on views about learning, self-efficacy and belief of achievement as dimensions of learning motivation. The respondents “agree” on tangible and intangible as dimensions on rewards system. The respondents “strongly agree” on indicators towards reward system. The students obtain a “passed” rating in their academic performance. There is no significant difference on the dimensions of learning motivation. There is no significant difference on the dimensions of reward system. There is no significant difference on the dimensions of reward system when grouped according to sex profile variable.  There is no significant relationship between the academic performance and the dimensions on learning motivation. The summary of the researches conducted and the assumptions arrived at, the researcher have to give tangible or intangible rewards to deserving students who are exerting efforts to excel in the science class that there is a necessity to train teachers in how to impart students so that they develop intrinsically motivated, as a substitute of just driven along by the idea of the next external reward; that the teachers are to exercise extreme fairness and equality to give rewards and recognition to deserving students.

Significant Difference

We examined whether Japanese people, 47 junior high school students, 49 undergraduates, and 52 older adults, possessed negative attitudes against blacks and the picture book Little Black Sambo. We assessed the implicit attitude toward the target word pairs, “black/white” and “Sambo/Heidi,” by utilizing a paper-based Implicit Association Test and found that both black and Sambo were associated more negatively than white and Heidi. However, the implicit attitudes assessed with a single-target IAT showed that 67 Japanese students showed positive implicit scores for blacks but with smaller valences. A post hoc analysis revealed that the reading experience of Little Black Sambo did not show a significant difference between the implicit attitudes of those who had and had not read the book.

The Difference

This study was aimed to determine the difference of adolescents’ social competence based on their mothers’ working and non-working status and parenting styles. The interaction between mothers’ work status and their parenting styles in determining adolescents’ social competence was also tested. A total number of 292 Junior High School students whose ages ranged from 11 to15 years old were involved in this study. Data were collected using online questionnaires of social Competence and parenting styles and were analyzed using two-way ANOVA. The results reveal no difference in social competence between adolescents whose mothers are working and those whose mothers are not working. However, a significant difference of the adolescents’ social competence was found when it is based on mothers’ parenting styles. The result also shows no interaction between mothers’ working status and their parenting styles.Keywords: Social competence, adolescents, work status, parenting style, mother Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan kompetensi sosial pada remaja dengan ibu bekerja dan tidak bekerja dan perbedaan kompetensi sosial pada remaja ditinjau dari pola asuh ibu. Selain itu, penelitian ini juga bertujuan untuk mengetahui interaksi antara status pekerjaan ibu dengan pola asuh ibu dalam menentukan kompetensi sosial. Partisipan penelitian adalah 292 remaja siswa Sekolah Menengah Pertama (SMP) yang berusia antara 11-15 tahun. Instrumen yang digunakan untuk koleksi data adalah skala Kompetensi Sosial dan Skala Pola Asuh Ibu. Data penelitian dianalisis menggunakan Two Way ANOVA. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan kompetensi sosial pada remaja dengan ibu bekerja dan tidak bekerja.

Objective We investigated scoliosis incidence among junior high school students in Zhongshan city, Guangdong, China and the expression of miR-30e among those with scoliosis. Methods A total 41,258 students were included. From July 2015 to December 2017, all students underwent screening including routine observation of the standing and sitting posture, Adam's forward bend test, dorsal tilt angle measurement, and X-ray examination. Age, sex, height, weight, and body mass index (BMI) were recorded. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to assess miR-30e expression among students with scoliosis and 200 healthy students. Results Overall, 743 students were diagnosed with scoliosis, with an incidence rate of 1.80%. A total 646 (86.9%) students were diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis, 38 (5.1%) with congenital scoliosis, and 59 (7.9%) with other scoliosis types. Compared with healthy students, height was significantly greater whereas weight and BMI were significantly lower among students with scoliosis, and expression of miR-30e was significantly lower. However, no significant difference was found in height, weight, BMI, and mean Cobb angle between high/low miR-30e groups. Conclusion The incidence rate for scoliosis was 1.80%, Compared with healthy students, those with scoliosis were taller, had lower weight and BMI, and miR-30e expression was significantly downregulated.

AbstractIn September 2013, 2248 students from 36 junior high schools in Shaanxi Province underwent assessment of visual acuity (VA), completed a questionnaire about their spectacle use and were administered a standardized mathematics examination. Among 2,248 students (mean age 13.6 years, 52% male), visual impairment was present in 699 (31%, 95% Confidence Interval 29-33%). Spectacle wear was observed in 360 of 966 children needing glasses (37%). Ownership of spectacles among children needing glasses was associated with poorer uncorrected vision in the better-seeing eye (P <0.001) and paternal educational (p=0.001), but not age, sex, boarding at school, both parents having out-migrated for work or maternal education. Spectacle ownership among children with visual impairment was associated with better test performance (P=0.035). Therefore, visual impairment and non-wear of spectacle were common. Wearing spectacles was associated with better academic performance in this cross-sectional analysis, consistent with recent trial results among younger children.

<p>The aims of this research are to find out: (1) whether there is a significant difference in reading skill between the students taught by using KWL method and those taught by using DIM; and (2) whether KWL method is more effective than DIM to teach reading. This experimental study used 22 students for the experimental group and 22 students for the control group. The data were collected by using reading test and then analyzed by using t-test formula. The computation of the data shows that the t-observation (t<sub>o</sub>) is 1.988, which is higher than the t-table <sub>(42,</sub> <sub>0.05)</sub>: 1.960. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in reading skill between the students taught by using KWL method and those taught by using DIM. The mean of the group of students taught by using KWL method is 75.14, while the mean of the group of students taught  by using DIM is 69.13. Therefore, it can be concluded that KWL method is more effective to teach reading than DIM for junior high school students.</p>
