From Good to Great: Boost Your Class 9th & 10th Results with Expert Tuition The years spent in class 9th and 10th are some of the most crucial in a student’s academic journey. These two years set the foundation for future academic success, especially with the pressure of board exams looming in class 10th. For many students, this phase can be challenging. It’s not just about grasping the concepts, but also about developing time management skills, exam techniques, and gaining the confidence to perform under pressure. This is where expert tuition can make all the difference, transforming good results into great achievements. The Importance of Class 9th and 10th Class 9th is often considered a turning point. Students transition from middle school to high school, where subjects become more detailed, and the difficulty level rises. In class 10th, the syllabus intensifies, and the board exams create additional pressure. Both years are integral in shaping a student's future because their performance in these years sets the tone for higher secondary education and college applications. see more:- https://lnkd.in/gV2gETVv

Prioritising certain attributes such as “critical and reflective thinker” and “skilled communicator” can help to shape the learning outcomes for your programme. This ensures that the skills your students are assessed on feed into the development of these characteristics. Our #instructionaldesign gives all students an opportunity to flourish.

In the past three semesters, I have provided video recordings of lectures to the students. These are the recordings of my online lectures during the Covid-19 times. According to the students,  having access to the lecture videos helps them in many ways, like revising the concepts before the exams, studying the topics that were not clearly understood during the lecture, and preparing notes. I  analyzed the data from two semesters (autumn 2023 and Spring 2024) in which I taught the same course. There were 120 and 114 students enrolled for the course in 2023 and 2024, respectively. The analyzed data includes video view statistics obtained from MS Teams 'Insights', attendance records, exam performance, and feedback received from the students. The objective was to understand the correlation between attendance, video views, and exam performance. In 2023, the students were more habituated to online learning; hence, only very few of them interacted with me/asked doubts during the lectures. The situation was completely different in 2024; many students  actively participated in the classroom discussions and got their doubts clarified during the lectures. This could be the reason behind a noticeable decline in video views in 2024 compared to 2023. It is also reflected in the students' feedback about how helpful the lecture videos were. In 2023,  88% of them found it 'very helpful', but reduced to 69% in 2024. The impact of conducting exams/quizzes at periodic intervals on the study pattern of the students is evident from the local peaks in video views. In my experience, conducting tests at regular intervals and providing timely feedback (returning the corrected answer scripts within a few days after the tests) motivates students to study regularly throughout the semester. On correlating the video views with the grade points obtained in the course, it is observed that the students whose performance was average in the exams (grade point 7) viewed the videos the most. On average, a student with a grade point of 7 viewed the videos 29 days out of 117 days during the semester. Finally, there is a clear positive correlation between the classroom attendance and the grade points!
