Effects of Attitude of Students in Their Classroom
CHAPTER 1
Introduction:
Attitude as a concept is concerned with an individual way of thinking, acting and behaving. It has very serious implications for the learner, the teacher, the immediate social group with which the individual learner relates and the entire school system. Attitudes are formed as a result of some kind of learning experiences. They may also be learned simply by following the example or opinion of parent, teacher or friend. This is mimicry or imitation, which also has a part to play in the teaching and learning situation. In this respect, the learner draws from his teachers’ disposition to form his own attitude, which may likely affect his learning outcomes.
Statement of the Problem
1. What kind of attitude does PCU college student do to their professors?
2. How does the attitude of PCU college student affect their classroom performance?
3. How does the attitude of PCU college student related to their classroom performance?
Theoretical Framework
Attitudes are usually defined as a disposition or tendency to respond positively or negatively towards a certain thing. They encompass, or are closely related to, our opinions and beliefs and are based upon our experiences. Since attitudes often relate in some way to interaction with others, they represent an important link between cognitive and social psychology. As far as instruction is concerned, a great deal of learning involves acquiring or changing attitudes. Attitude can alter every aspect of a person's life, including their education. Student attitudes on learning determine their ability and willingness to learn. If negative attitudes are not altered, a student is unlikely to continue his education beyond what is required. Changing students' negative attitudes towards learning is a process that involves determining the factors driving the attitude and using this information to bring about change.
