    Throughout the semester, data was collected in order to analyze it as a source of discourse. I chose to analyze the frequency of Blackboard access per day and the hours in which that frequency is at its highest and lowest. This raw data becomes significant when compared to the general makeup of my average weekly schedule because it reveals important aspects of my study habits. Most importantly though, it highlights my short attention span and the difficulties I experience when trying to concentrate on writing and reading assignments. The effects of specific times of study, exercise, and lack of mundane distractions, have a positive effect on my study habits; therefore, when compared to the data collected, these three factors indicate that my…

    Available empirical research investigating the relationship that study time has with college student performance has seen mixed results. Positive, negative, and no relationship between the two variables has been reported. At a time when there is overwhelming evidence that students are devoting less time to their studies it is critical for educators who desire to encourage and motivate their students to engage in productive study behavior to first understand the true nature of this relationship. The authors investigated the influence of a third variable, study habits. Based on a sample of finance students, results showed some study habits had a positive direct relationship on student performance but others had a negative direct relationship. Results also showed the study habit moderated the relationship between study time and student performance positively, but another study habit moderated the relationship negatively. Discussion of the findings, implications, and directions for further research are also…

    Effective study skills are essential for international students because it will make students to be more motivated to learn as they know what are they learning and how they will do in the learning (Burns & Sienfield , 2008). In the context of tertiary education, international students have big responsibilities in learning since they are learning in a new environment that is challenging with unfamiliar people who are waiting for them. Therefore, study skills are crucial for international students because university life can be considered as their ‘full occupation’, meaning that 24 hours of time will be devoted for university life (Carrol & Ryan, 2005). In other words, strong commitment is needed for lectures, tutorial and time-management so that they can survive in a new academic culture. The main focus of the study skills course here is for international students with English as their target language or specifically English is learned for academic purposes (EAP). This means that English is used as a medium of instruction in classroom or the language itself is learned (Gillet, 2008). Here, I would like to talk about the items that should be covered in a pre-university study skills course for non-native international students.…

    Our project was shown the effects of three main factors: the entrance exam result, the number of years learning English and self-study time at home in the first year. We have some conclusions on the relationships between the factors. All of us know the fact is that if the result of the entrance exam was high along with a high number of years students have learned English and the amount of time they spend on self-studying at home, their IELTS score would be high and vice verse. By doing this research, we realize that the amount of time that students spend on studying at home has the positive relationship with their IELTS result, which means that the more time you spend on self-studying English, the better score you can get, even when you were not too good at English when you were at high school.…
