Factors Related to Learning Achievement In Professional Teacher Subject, of Students Faculty of Education, Buriram Rajabhat University

Abstract

This research aimed to study the level of factors, explore the relationships between these factors, and create a predictive equation affecting the learning achievement of the Professional Teacher Course of students in the Faculty of Education at Buriram Rajabhat University. The sample group consisted of 280 first-year students in semester 2 of the academic year 2022. The predictor variables included 7 factors: previous learning achievement, learning behavior, attitude towards learning, motivation for learning achievement, teaching quality, parental promotion of learning, and peer relationships. The criterion variable was the learning achievement in the Professional Teacher Course. Measurement instruments employed a 5-level Likert scale, and statistical methods included percentage, mean, standard deviation, Pearson's correlation,  and multiple regression analysis. The research findings were as follows: 1) The level of factors affecting learning achievement, including previous learning achievement, was at a moderate level. In contrast, learning behavior, attitude toward learning, motivation for learning achievement, teaching quality, parental promotion of learning, and peer relationships were at a high level. 2) The relationships between factors affecting learning achievement ranged from 0.138 to 0.776, all statistically significant at the 0.01 level. 3) Previous learning achievement, learning behavior, teaching quality, and motivation for learning achievement had a multiple correlation coefficient (R) of 0.855, predicting learning achievement jointly by 73.10% as per the following equations:

Raw Score Equation:

 Y¢ =  21.037 + 5.786x₁ + 3.492x₂  + 2.346x₅ + 2.446x₄

Standardized Score Equation:

Z¢_Y  =  0.383Z_X1 + 0.283Z_X2 + 0.185Z_X5 + 0.166Z_X4
