“…We can say that whether a student has achieved his/her higher secondary education from a rural area or from an urban area will not make any difference in their academic performance at higher education level. These results contradict those of Campbell et al (2021), Gilal et al (2018), andSofo et al (2009), who found that students' geographic location had a significant impact on their academic success and other behavioral reactions. Furthermore, moderation effect for medium of instruction in the higher secondary school revealed that the students who have achieved their higher secondary education from non-English medium school perform better at higher education level than those students who have studied from an English medium school.…”

The present study aims to investigate the impact of English as a medium of instruction (EMI) on the academic performance of undergrad students, and to explore the moderating effect of geographical location, the medium of secondary schooling and schooling types in these relationship. Hypotheses were tested using SPSS 24.0 with a sample of n=140 student-teacher dyads. Hayes (2013) process macros for SPSS and regression analysis were used as methods. The results show that EMI has a significant positive impact on the academic performance of the students. The moderation analysis reveals that there is not any difference between the performance of students from rural areas and students from urban areas as per results obtained through statistical procedures. Furthermore, the students from non-English medium schools perform comparatively better than students from English medium schools. Likewise, results suggest that there is not any significant difference between performance of the students from the government schools and of students from private schools.

“…e study of the relative validity of each basic unit facilitates the improvement of the experimental management model and the development of rational planning, thus maximizing the effectiveness of experimental design [23]. Scientific measurement of experimental design validity can reflect the degree of effective subjective efforts to improve experimental design, which can have a motivating effect on each unit [24]. For measuring the effectiveness of teaching experimental design, hierarchical analysis has been used in the past to analyze the good and bad experimental design of each unit.…”

Experimental instructional design is an important pedagogical component of university teaching and learning, an important means of cultivating students’ innovative spirit and practical skills, and has an important status and role that cannot be replaced by any other means of teaching and learning. Assessment for learning as learning, assessment for learning, and assessment as learning are three paradigms of educational assessment that complement each other in achieving curricular and pedagogical goals and together form learning-based assessment. As an important component of national science and technology development, measuring the effectiveness of laboratory instructional design in universities and research institutions is of special significance. This paper presents the authors’ research on the background, evaluation characteristics, evaluation content, and methods of experimental teaching evaluation in the information technology environment, with examples of their application.

“…This is an expected result, as not all mechanisms should be expected to generate universal outcomes. A literature review of growth mindset studies involving engineering students (Campbell et al, 2021) proposed promising but similarly mixed conclusions based on population group. These results provide the framework for future studies.…”

This paper examines growth mindset, an evidence-based strategy posited by Carol Dweck (2007), within the framework of a classroom at a private, faith-based university. In a post-pandemic time where many students and people have felt adverse effects on their ability to adapt, this research studies the impact of mindset language and strategies on a student’s internal locus of control. The specific question the researchers posited was, does growth mindset language and strategies within a graduate-level class affect a student’s internal locus of control?Participants in this study were Master of Business Management students taking an online employee development course at Azusa Pacific University. The online course was modified to use growth mindset language and strategies. Changes in language focused on effort, starting with the syllabus and project instructions and continuing throughout the course. For example, language used in the weekly overviews focused on effort and explaining why effort was important.Survey results indicated that the graduate students did not report an increase in their level of growth mindset or locus of control. This is hypothetically due to the high level of growth mindset and internal locus of control already felt by the participants. This moves the focus for graduate students from mindset to the environment they are learning in, including the level of psychological safety felt by the students in the classroom.
