Formulate or illustrate the Conceptual Framework of the following titles presented:
(Answers should have a valid and factual reference and interpretation)
1. "The Effects of Students Attendance to their Academic Performance"
2. "Impact of Visual Aids in enhancing the Learning Process of the Students"
3. "Assessment on the Effectiveness of Memory Booster on the Learning Process of the
Students"
1.The author presents new evidence on the effects of attendance on academic performance.
He used a large panel data set for introductory microeconomics students to explicitly take
into account the effect of unobservable factors correlated with attendance, such as ability,
effort, and motivation. He found that neither proxy variables nor instrumental variables
provide a solution to the omitted variable bias. Panel estimators indicate that attendance
has a smaller but significant impact on performance. Lecture and classes have a similar
effect on performance individually, although their impact cannot be identified separately.
Overall, the results indicate that, after controlling for unobservable student characteristics,
attendance has a statistically significant and quantitatively relevant effect on student
learning.
2. This research explores teachers' opinions on the use of visual aids (e.g., pictures,
animation videos, projectors and films) as a motivational tool in enhancing students'
attention in reading literary texts. To accomplish the aim of the research, a closed ended
questionnaire was used to collect the required data. The targeted population for this
research was the staff and students of the public and private educational institutions of
District Dera Ghazi Khan. In this research the primary data was used for gathering
information. The collected data is analyzed through the SPSS software and also data was
represented in the percentage distribution of pie, line, and bar graphs. The analysis of the
data indicated that the majority of the teachers and students had positive perceptions of the
use of visual aids.
3.
The memory demands for school-age children are much greater than they are for adults. As
adults, we have already acquired much of the knowledge and skills we need to function day
to day. Although the knowledge base for some fields such as technology changes rapidly,
RSCH 122
the new information is generally highly specific and builds on existing knowledge. On the
other hand, school children are constantly bombarded with new knowledge in multiple
topic areas in which they may or may not be interested. Additionally, they are expected to
both learn and demonstrate the mastery of this knowledge on a weekly basis. Thus, an
effective and efficient memory is critical for school success.
Many students have memory problems. Students who have deficits in registering
information in short-term memory often have difficulty remembering instructions or
directions they have just been given, what was just said during conversations and class
lectures and discussions, and what they just read. Students who have difficulty with working
memory often forget what they are doing while doing it.
