Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Psychology - Methods, grade: 4.00, University of Dhaka (Department of Finance), course: Research Methodology, language: English, abstract: The core of this study is to investigate the impact of class attendance on the academic achievement of the students. The academic achievement or academic performance is measured by the exam score of the students. Structured questionnaires have been prepared which provide a clear guide to extract the exact information from the desired source to conduct to study smoothly and effectively. The findings of this study explored that class attendance has a very strong relationship with academic performance of the student. The strong relationship between variables is claimed by the correlation between class attendance and academic performance of the students which is correlation 0.7686. Since, based on the findings of this study, it is concluded that class attendance has significant impact over academic performance so that it is recommended that compulsory class attendance and scholarship for full attendance are needed to be effectively implemented. This important study has been conducted in many other developed, developing and underdeveloped countries so that it becomes crucial to identify the effect of class attendance on the academic performance of students in Bangladesh.

The determination of college students' academic performance is an important issue in higher education. Whether students' attendance at lectures affects students' exam performance has received considerable attention. The authors conduct a randomized experiment to study the average attendance effect for students who choose to attend lectures, which is known in program evaluation literature as the average treatment effect on the treated. This effect has long been neglected by researchers when estimating the impact of lecture attendance on students' academic performance. Under the randomized experiment approach, the results suggest that class attendance has a positive and significant impact on college students' exam performance. On average, the effect of attending lectures corresponds to a 9.4 percent to 18.0 percent improvement in exam performance for those who choose to attend classes. In comparison, the improvement is only 5.1 percent, using the empirical method of existing studies, which measures the overall average attendance impact.

This paper presents new evidence on the effects of class attendance on academic performance. We analyze survey data collected for an Introductory Macroeconomics course at “G. D'Annunzio” University of Chieti and Pescara (Italy) in the academic year 2004-2005, matched to administrative data. Using OLS "proxy variables" regressions to capture the effect of unobservable student factors correlated with attendance, we still find a positive and significant effect of attendance on academic performance. However, while the bias correction goes in the expected direction, when using panel data estimators to eliminate time-invariant individual specific unobservables, the attendance effect disappears.

Student absenteeism and disengagement from school have for more than a decade reflected entrenched problems within the Ontario school system, resulting in diminished capacity for student academic achievement. Marginalized, African Canadian, and lower socioeconomic students are the most affected. Through a mixed-methods approach utilizing both qualitative and quantitative research involving 313 students in a survey component and 40 students in 6 focus groups, the researcher explores the antecedents behind student absenteeism and disengagement from the learning process. Specific questions relating to student in-school experiences, thoughts and feelings, the impact of teacher attitudes, expectations and biases, and peer influence during critical educational stages in students' lives, produced contextually relevant opinions and observations from the students themselves. This is important as most research on school "drop outs" has omitted the salience of students' voices. Resultant themes derived from this study indicate the following implicating factors: (a) school leadership, (b) school culture and environment, (c) curriculum, (d) teacher attitude and expectations, and (e) peer pressure. The interplay of these influences causes either student engagement or disengagement which in turn affects student attendance. It is apparent from the research that the school in general and teachers specifically, either negatively or positively influence students, which suggests that both teachers and school administrators can help students improve their attendance, and thus their academic performance by establishing positive and influential relationships with them. This would have a profound effect on whether students succeed or fail. Study findings indicate that teaching pedagogy, a curriculum relevant to student life experiences, and a more hospitable and equitable school environment are crucial to whether a student becomes bored or passionate about learning. Changes to all three are essential, and recommendations are given in this regard.

"Using data from Indonesia, Newhouse and Beegle to evaluate the impact of school type on academic achievement of junior secondary school students (grades 7-9). Students that graduate from public junior secondary schools, controlling for a variety of other characteristics, score 0.15 to 0.3 standard deviations higher on the national exit exam than comparable privately schooled peers. This finding is robust to OLS, fixed-effects, and instrumental variable estimation strategies. Students attending Muslim private schools, including Madrassahs, fare no worse on average than students attending secular private schools. The results provide indirect evidence that higher quality inputs at public junior secondary schools promote higher test scores. "--Cover verso.

At many large universities it is conventional to deliver undergraduate introductory economics courses in a large lecture hall. However, not surprisingly, casual empiricism suggests that rates of student absenteeism are significantly greater in a large lecture format than in a smaller classroom setting. A compounding factor is that numerous empirical studies have established a significant negative relation between absenteeism and student performance. This study investigates the relation between absenteeism, the use of instructor provided online lecture notes, and student performance. The findings are that on average instructor lecture notes are not a substitute for class attendance. However, for some learning styles they can be a substitute, but for most learning styles they are not.
