Learning Strategy and Academic Achievement of Higher Secondary Students K Suresh, R Balamurugan, M Lavanya, AK Mohanadevi International Research Journal of Multidisciplinary Scope, 2025 Quantitative research has been conducted with a predictor variable of learning strategy and an outcome variable of academic achievement. The cross-sectional survey method was adapted to the 321 random samples of higher secondary students at Thiruvarur District, Tamil Nadu, India. The dimensions of learning strategy such as collaborative studying, writing, notes developing, reading, self-assessment, content organization, and time execution techniques were separately analyzed with the outcome variable, and both learning strategy and academic achievement were analyzed with demographic characteristics such as gender, locality of the school, type of management and medium of instructions. Descriptive, inferential, correlation, and regression analyses were made appropriately against the hypotheses. The study reveals that the level of learning strategy and academic achievement of the higher secondary students lies in the level of high and first class respectively. Learning strategy and academic achievement shows significant difference concerning gender, locality of the school, and medium of instruction. The learning strategy dimensions such as notes developing technique with gender, content organization and time execution techniques with the locality of the school, collaborative studying, reading, and time execution techniques with the medium of instruction are not significant and all others are significant with respective variables. The relationship between learning strategy and academic achievement is very high and academic achievement is highly influenced by the dimension of learning strategy at different levels. However, the collaborative studying dimension highly influences academic achievement followed by notes developing, reading, time execution, self-assessment, writing, and content organization techniques.
ITEP: An Idiosyncratic Programme for Generating Teachers with 21st Century Skills K Suresh, R Balamurugan, M Lavanya International Research Journal of Multidisciplinary Scope, 2025 Education is a process of transforming humans into socially productive individuals. The teacher are the backbone of education and who is a knowledge repository who propagates knowledge to society and is called a 'Guru' with great regard for shaping children through their experience of knowledge. One popular Sanskrit phrase asserts that "Matha (Mother), Pitha (Father), and Guru (Teacher) - all are my gods," expressing the significance of honoring the teacher, where the teacher serves as the children's second parent. The teacher's role extends beyond teaching to encompass an assortment of responsibilities, such as playing the role of social reformer, national builder, guide, counselor, and so on. Furthermore, teaching is one of the noblest and the mother of all other professions. Producing such a distinctive, responsible, and dedicated teacher is a challenging task in the teacher education program. Nowadays, due to modern technology, more departments have been emerged and students seek employability with mono or multi-disciplinary skills along with 21st-century knowledge. This prioritizes the generation of multidisciplinary teachers who cater to the need for quality education in the 21st century. Based on this reflection, the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has proposed the Integrated Teacher Education Program (ITEP). The pilot version of ITEP is currently being implemented at the Institute of Eminence (IoE), Institutions of National Importance (IoNI), and Central and State Universities. This article asserts that ITEP strengthens graduates' professional employability along with 21st-century skills which will be attire and adornment for future teachers.
