Effects of Study Habits
CHAPTER I
PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING
Introduction
The level of student’s learning in academics may be determined by the grades a student earns for a period of learning has been done. It is believed that a grade is a primary indicator of such learning. If the student’s grades are high, it is concluded that the student might learned a lot. If the student’s grades are low, then the student is learning lesser. However, No single factor can be definitely pointed out as predicting grades. It has been an interaction of so many factors – gender, age, year level, social status and the likes. In reality, almost all environmental and personal factors may be a variable of academic performances of students. It may also be the effects of some factors like the educational attainment of parents, IQ study habits, number of siblings, birth order, etc.
Many factors affects the academic performances of students as stated above like gender and age. As for gender and age, academic achievement is strongly influenced by demographic and psychological factors. As for educational attainment of parents, some researches shows that children whose parents are more involved in their education have higher levels of academic performance than children whose parents are involved to a lesser degree. The influence of parent involvement on academic success has not only been noted among researchers, but also among policy makers who have integrated efforts aimed at increasing parent involvement into broader educational policy initiatives
However, the researchers would like to study about the probable connection of study habits and other reasons or factors affecting the scholastic performances of students of Fourth year students in Calayan Educational Foundation Inc. The study of on this area thus becomes a real and gripping motivation for the researchers to conduct this study.
Background of the study
Study habits can be defined as buying out a dedicated scheduled and un-interrupted time to
