Factors Affecting the Learning Outcomes of Students in Modern Administration and Management Program, School of Business Administration, Sripatum University

Abstract

The present study aimed to investigate the factors affecting the learning outcomes of students in Modern Administration and Management Program, School of Business Administration, Sripatum University. Participants of the study were 120 first-year students with the student ID beginning with 65, enrolled in the course MGT: the Art and Science of Business Communication. The data were collected through a questionnaire, and analyzed using descriptive and referential statistical methods including frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, dependent t-test, and independent t-test. The findings revealed that student participation in the classroom had a significant impact on the learning outcomes of students in the Modern Management Program, School of Business Administration, Sripatum University. This can be attributed to the fact that student participation in the classroom is a knowledge-building process that relies on the students' prior experiences, leading to the continuous generation of new knowledge. Learners can determine the principles derived from practice and accurately apply theories or principles. It is a learning approach that promotes group work, fosters interaction between teachers and students, and encourages interaction among students themselves.
