INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND STUDY During the research studies, I have observed some problem which is involves in KPTM KL. It is not only occur among the students, however the problem also faced by the staffs including lecturers. After I considered all the problems involving, I am so attractive to studies on the implication of increasing number of students to their class timetables. To start this, firstly I need to find the past research which is related to my studies and try to use it to guide me as long as my research is running. Therefore, I have chosen the review from Massachusetts 2020 which is studies on the effects of longer classes on learning. During my studies, I want to focus this research among the degree level students in KPTM

During my observation just now, I have found that the class timetable problems are encountered by the most of the students in KPTM KL. The increasing number of registered students every semester gives problem to the management of KPTM to arrange the class timetable properly. They need to consider for the whole level of students in this college including diploma and degree students. With the increasing of students every semester, the facilities provided in the college including the classrooms, cafeteria, library, and computer laboratory are looks not enough to cover all of them. Even the number of all facilities is upgraded or added each semesters, it’s still not enough to give comforts for student to use it. As a result, the class timetable needs to arrange properly to ensure all students are fit to it.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY
My scope of the studies is exactly a student’s in KPTM KL. However, I more focus to run my studies among the degree level students. As a degree students, I am already faced the same problem. Over 100 from 673 of degree level students will be my respondent to complete my research during the next semester. I will select them randomly and try to collect as much as possible the useful information to cover my studies. My studies is focus more on the problem faced among degree students especially involving their class
A) Mr. Gualtieri cannot draw a conclusion about a cause-and-effect relationship from the evidence he has because he would be too quick to determine the factors that are affecting the students’ learning, development, and behavior (Ormrod, 2014, p.11). Instead of worrying about the cause-and- effect relationship from the evidence, Mr. Gualtieri should scrutinize the research report carefully; therefore, he must answer two questions. First, he must determine if he separated and controlled variables that might have an influence on the outcome. Second, he must ask if he has ruled out other possible explanations for his results? (Ormrod, 2014, p.11). If Mr. Gualtieri’s answers to both these questions are yes, then he should be able to draw a conclusion about the cause-and-effect relationship. Unfortunately, “yes” is not the answer to the two questions. This software program may not lead itself to experimental manipulation and tight control of other potentially influential variables because it is considered as a quasi-experimental study (Ormrod, 2014, p.10). Some of these influential variables that cannot be
This research design will need more time to be conducted, as this semester is coming to its
Reduction of a class size would have a remarkable increase in a student’s intellectual learning. Studies have shown that reducing a class significantly can surge a student’s achievement level by up to 3 months (Chingos and Whitehurst). Smaller classes would help teachers help other students personally by using other teaching methods. Also, students would not fear to ask for assistance or speak up considering there
levels and thus make students more efficient. The limitations of this study were a small sample size and that its participants consisted mainly of Caucasian females.
Classroom management is one of the critical success factors in running an effective classroom. Before the students begin their studies for the year, the room should be prepared, well organized, and aesthetically pleasing to the students. The seating chart and room layout and organization should be prepared well ahead of time. This way when the students arrive one the first day of school all the preparations have already been made. Once they arrive there should be some period in which the class takes some time to greet each other and the teacher so that the class can quickly become acquainted.
After students take time to do individual analysis, they should meet in workable groups of four students to discuss their analysis.� They should be ready to share ideas with the class as a
The purpose of this research paper is to first discuss the scientific results of different strategies of studying. The second purpose of this paper is how those strategies can be applied in a real life situation. This is meant to shine light on to which strategy is the most efficient and effective in the long term for studying. The first strategy being discussed is one that is inefficient and ineffective in the long term.
Those that experimented and customized the schedule to their own staff and students, tended to also have positive more results in regards to student learning and perceived satisfaction as
In large classroom, more students that can be taught; less teachers that need to be employed; more of the budget that can be used elsewhere. Classroom sizes influence students and teachers. It affects students who may not fully understand so they choose to act out and it affects educators’ ability to give students an education. The main conclusion is that classroom sizes can have effects on disciplinary issues, individualized teaching structures and can cause stress on educators.
Class capacity is severely restricted at the moment, however more students are still brought in and promised positions in the class. Two problems arise, first students are accommodated in a cramped learning environment; and two, the marketing team is divided on whether to continue to accept students or to cease enrolment. The owner favors the latter.
Starting with the obvious, it is evident that working 20+ hours a week impacts a student’s grades. Upon finding out those results, a comparison was made to find out if working 15 hours a week has an effect on academic performance, and the same results occurred. Although there isn’t a major change in global R-Score, the change is still there. The average R-Score is 27.285 while the working R-Score of 20+ hours a week is 26.875.
Availability of a course syllabus was one of the good things that defined the semester. The course syllabus explained the topics that would be taught throughout the semester. Thus, students oriented their minds with the requirements of the course. Such a situation contributed to a substantive part of the success achieved during the course. In addition, the professor encouraged groups work among the students. According to Brown (2014), group work enhance co-operation among the students. Undoubtedly, the teamwork resulting from the group work led to better understanding of business concepts as well contribution of new
The active performance of the students can be seen during recitations, asking questions and participation in class activities. The researcher decided to stick with the variable, recitation of the students. When a child is active in his or her performance, it is possible that he or she learned a lot and gets more knowledge. As for the researcher’s opinion, seating arrangement is not for a shallow reason of controlling the students because after all, inside the classroom, there is always an authority and that is the teacher and authority should be followed for they set order for the better. In case of a classroom, seating arrangement is a concern for the teachers in order to prevent and lessen constraints brought by the students that could affect the attention of both the teacher and the classmates and much worse the learning process that could affect the active participation of the students. Still, the majority’s advantage is being seen.
I am proposing a better thought out plan for traditional students. After some research, I
The population of students in one classroom with one teacher is at an all time high. With overcrowded classrooms and only one teacher in the room, the
