Learning Factors, Mathematics Self-Concept and Academic Performance among Tourism Management Students: A Correlational Study

This study aims to investigate the relationship between academic accomplishment and learning-related characteristics. Specifically, it examines how students' achievements in general mathematics relate to their proficiency in integrated learning settings, self-concept, and various learning variables. Despite participants' exceptional academic achievements in general mathematics, the study found that their proficiency in integrated learning contexts, mathematics self-concept, and other learning-related characteristics was only moderate. This suggests that high performance in traditional academic settings does not necessarily translate to high performance in integrated learning environments. Furthermore, the study's results indicated no statistically significant correlation between academic achievement and learning outcomes, mathematics self-concept, or the examined learning factors. This lack of significant correlation suggests that other factors may be more crucial in influencing students' success in integrated learning settings. The findings highlight the complexity of academic achievement and suggest the need for a more nuanced understanding of how different learning environments and personal characteristics interact to impact students' performance. This study underscores the importance of exploring additional variables contributing to students' success and suggests that educational strategies should consider these diverse factors to support holistic student development.
