A Study on ralations between Undergraduate Student's General Educational their Achievement

Abstract

The objectives of this research are: 1.To study the relationship between the general subjects scores and the students' educational achievement. 2.To study the relationship between the general subjects scores and the students' work achievement. 3.To study the relationship between students' general subjects scores and their ethnical behavior. 4.To study the relationship between students' general subjects scores in Social Science and/or Humanities and the students' work achievement. 5.To study the relationship between students' general subjects scores in Social Science and/or Humanities and the students' ethnical behavior. The research data were from four sets of questionnaire. The first set was given to all student samples who were going to graduate in the 2/2542 academic year within the Center of Rajamangala Institute of Technology. The samples were from the stratified random sampling. The first set of questionnaire, 230 items, was brought back 100% completely. The second set of questionnaire was Qiven to teachers or advisors of the samples above. The third set of questionnaire was given to samples' employees. The fourth set of questionnaire was given to the employed samples. Percentage, Mean, Pearson's Product Correlation Co-efficient and Multiple Regression were used for data analysis by the SPSS/PC+ The research findings are as follow: 1.Students' achievement showed positive relation at the middle level to their general subject scores. 2.Students' achievement showed non-relation to their general subject scores. 3.Students' ethnicai behavior showed the very low level relation to their general subject scores and these two variables showed the opposite relation. 4.Students' work achievement showed non-relation to the general scores in Social Science and/or Humanities. 5.Students' ethnical behavior showed positive correlation to their general subject scores in Social Science and/or Humanities Moreover, it was found that the students' general subject scores in Social Science and/or Humanities could predict their ethnical behavior. Other variables showed non-significant difference to the prediction-equation at the alpha level of 0.05. Researchers proposed that all vocational faculties within The Center of Rajamangala Institute of Technology who would like to implant or promote the students' ethnical behavior should organize their curriculum based on Social Science and/or Humanities, especially the SUbjects on social and human behavior development i.e. Life and Social Skills, Human Relations. Researchers proposed that there should have ongoing research about variables, components, patterns, teaching methods, and activities for each subject concerned to see the outcome of students' ethnical behavior development. Moreover, the repeated research should be done to compare the Rajamangala Institute of Technology students' work achievement with the students from the other universities and there should have the study of relationship between students' vocational subjects and their work achievement so that the findings should have been considered for the curriculum adjustment.
