The purposes of the present study were finding out educational implications and enhancing the efficient use of computer-based assessments (CBA) in class designes. This paper examined associations of CBA perceptional typology, academic achievement, personality, and computer efficacy. Participants were fifty senior students who took more than 50% of CBA classes in a university that introduces online learning-based system (LMS) with CBA. As a result, there were significant differences between CBA types and GPA and between CBA types and personality. In other words, the CBA adjustment type showed the highest GPA score and CBA dissatisfaction/paper test preference type showed the lowest GPA. Similarly, in terms of personality, CBA adjustment typology was significantly higher conscientiousness than other types. CBA dissatisfaction type had the lowest score of conscientiousness. In addition, the higher the level of conscientiousness, agreeableness and neuroticism, the higher the GPA score. This study is meaningful in that it is the first attempt to seek links CBA type with academic achievement and personality.

This study aims to provide basic data to increase the happiness of college students by verifying whether a growth mindset moderates the mediating effect of teachers' autonomy support for students in the relationship between academic achievement and happiness. The survey subjects were intentionally sampled from 396 engineering students attending a university in Guangzhou who performed a business practice project. The questionnaire method was used to collect data, and the collected data was analyzed using SPSS PC+ Win. 27.0 and PROCESS macro 4.2. The applied statistical techniques were frequency, reliability, correlation, and moderated mediation effect analysis. The research results are as follows. First, there was a significant positive correlation between academic achievement, teachers' autonomy support, growth mindset, and happiness. Second, a growth mindset played a role in increasing the impact of academic achievement on happiness through teachers' autonomy support. Therefore, it was confirmed that a growth mindset increases the mediating effect of teachers' autonomy support in the relationship between academic achievement and happiness. Based on the research results, measures to improve the happiness of college students were suggested.

This paper analyzed class satisfaction and perceived learning achievement to the interaction type on e-learning in university. To achieve the study's objective, one course with and another course without learner-instructor interactions were selected. A total of184 student-respondents completed the questionnaire. Accordingly, more learner-content and learning-system interactions were noted in the course with learner-instructor interactions. Moreover, a correlation was observed between interaction, class satisfaction, and learning achievement. Learner-instructor interactions indicated the highest effect on both educational satisfaction and perceived learning achievement, followed by learner-system interactions on class satisfaction, and by learner-instructor interactions on learning achievement. Recommendations were then formulated based on the foregoing findings. First, workshops or training focusing on content development and on how to present the course should be provided to the instructors. Second, learner-instructor interactions should be activated in the course through various means. In this study, although learner-learner interactions was not given focus, future studied should delve into how learner-learner interaction should be activated and considered.

This is a primitive experimental study to find effects of 10 times classwide peer tutoring on academic achievement, self-leadership and interpersonal ability of nursing students. According to the results of Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis test using SPSS/WIN 19.0, the motive of admission was the factor affecting the most mean ranks related to general characteristics. There were significant differences between academic achievements, cognitive strategy, and promoting relationships(p<.001; p=.020; p=.040), and there was a positive correlation between self-leadership and interpersonal ability(r=.296, p=.041) in Wilcoxon Signed Ranked test. As results of this study, the classwide peer tutoring could be applied in nursing classes for enhancing students' competence, but the researcher suggests further researches with wider range of subjects and setting control group.

In the information society, the ability of learners to use computers to conduct self-directed learning is important. Indeed, the higher the computer's ability to use computers, the more the academic achievement needs to be analyzed. The purpose of this study was to identify longitudinal trajectories of student awareness of ICT literacy and frequency of computer use. We also examined the effects of the longitudinal patterns on academic achievement and college major choice. A non-parametric approach, K-means for longitudinal data(KML) algorithm, was conducted using 9-year longitudinal data from Seoul Education Longitudinal Study (2010-2018). Findings indicated that a pattern presenting a higher awareness of ICT literacy and frequency of computer use showed better academic achievements and was likely to prefer to choose engineering-related majors.

This study examined the relationship of resilience, academic stress and academic achievement of nursing students. Data were collected through self reported structured questionnaire in 197 nursing students from September 26 to October 12, 2019. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 23.0. As a result this study, resilience was negatively correlated with academic stress(r=-.46, p<.001). while resilience was positively correlated with academic achievement(r=.48, p<.001). As a result regression analysis, social support, structural style, and positivity among the sub-variables of resilience explained 28.4%(F=24.80, p<.001) of the academic stress in nursing students. Relational, and self confidence explained 22.7%(F=27.80, p<.001) of the academic achievement Therefore, it is necessary to develop interventions that can enhance social support structural style, positivity, relational, and self confidence to manage the academic stress and to improve academic achievement of nursing students.

The main objective of this paper is to study if the admission officer system is settled down successively. We compare two groups, one admitted by the admission officer system and the other admitted by the usual system in terms of school life satisfaction, academic achievement and career status after graduation. In this paper, 404 students, who had graduated in 2016 and had data on three indices were analyzed by mean difference test and Chi-squared test. The analysis results show that there are no differences between two groups statistically. The main factor on the career status after graduation is the academic performance rather than the admission system. This means the H university, which has been chosen as the leading university for the admission officer system since 2008, has settled down the admission officer system successfully.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of the undergraduate research program(URP) among Korean students. URP is frequently implemented in STEM(Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) majors, and this study tested whether the participation of URP was effective in convergence competency, major satisfaction, and academic achievement. Data were collected from 101 participants and 117 non-participants of URP at an A university. The research results showed that the mean scores of convergence competency, major satisfaction, and academic achievement of the URP participating group were significantly higher than those of the non-participating group.

The university entrance examination in deeply related to high school education, adaptation and study ability in university. In this point of view, we investigate the scholastic achievement to the Calculus 1,2, linear algebra and differential equation from academic year 2006 to 2016. The above four subjects contain elementary and essential contents to study for science and engineering major in university. We compare and analyse the data of scholastic achievement and system of various university entrance examination, and we discuss and propose the methods of improvements for adaptation to each major field and study ability.
