The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the learning approaches and the progression of reflective thinking levels among pre-university biology students, as well as the influence of gender. The secondary purpose was to study the relationship between learning approaches, reflective thinking levels, prior academic achievement, and current academic achievement.The sample consisted of 36 students enrolled in an urban public secondary school in Ipoh. An independent-sample t-test and a paired-sample t-test were conducted to examine students' learning approaches and reflective thinking levels, respectively. A one-way ANCOVA was conducted to examine the effect of gender on their reflective thinking. For the relationship determination, a correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between students' learning approaches, reflective thinking levels, prior academic achievement, and current academic achievement.The results indicated that there was a significant difference in surface motive [F = 0.02, t(34) = 2.55, p < .05] and habitual action [t(35) = 2.79, p < .01] among students. The correlation test revealed a negative correlation between the surface learning approach (r = .424, p = .01) and current academic achievement. However, there were strong positive correlations between habitual action (r = .620, p < .001) and prior academic achievement (r = .556, p < .001) on current academic achievement</p> 2012 thesis https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=12237 https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=12237 text eng N/A openAccess Masters Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun Fakulti Sains dan Matematik N/A |
